Peru's "Diegoavc" left the final table pretty quick after losing a big hand with ace-queen against pocket eights and he busted in ninth place for $1,546.

After that, "_Lord_Xenu_" took control over the tournament and gained a huge chip lead three-handed. He then lost with pocket aces against pocket sevens, but saw "Doked" leave in third place for $11,999 after taking a crucial beat with pocket jacks against pocket tens
Heads-up "_Lord_Xenu_" fought hard to come back in this battle but in the end, it was Ukraine's "pshyoagromor" who took the first prize of $22,266.
