Buttsauce33 entered final table play as the chip leader with henchness24 right behind him. Perlini1 was the only other player entering the final table with over a Million chips. This is how the final nine players started final table play:

AllTheAce 956,451

bigt439 877,567

Paul Merson 498,471

jesarah 772,759

RollinHand1 453,734

henchness24 2,089,756

perlini1 1,190,624

buttsauce33 3,849,037

TheRyanKing07 825,601

The 2nd hand of the final table brought our first elimination. RollinHand1 moved all-in from the small blind with Ad-10c and was called by henchness24 in the big blind with Qd-9c. A queen on the flop left RollinHand1 needing an ace. The turn and river both fell jacks and RollinHand1 finished in 9th.

Jesarah finished in 8th. After perlini1 raised to 120,000 pre-flop, jesarah moved all-in for just under 700k. It was A-9 for Jesarah against the A-Q of perlini1. Both hit their kicker on the flop with perlini1 retaining the lead to the river, eliminating jesarah.

TheRyanKing07 moved all-in from the button for 895,378 and was called by bigt439 in the big blind for 749,567. Bigt439 was ahead with A-7 against A-6. The flop was a crusher for bigt439 as a six hit the flop. A seven failed to hit the turn or river and bigt439 finished in 7th.

AllTheAce moved all-in under the gun for 384k and Paul Merson reshoved for 1.3 Million UTG+1. Merson held pocket sevens against Ac-3c. The flop produced a three, but the only ace that AllTheAce saw was the one already in his hand. AllTheAce hit the rail in 6th.

Henchness24 moved all-in from the big blind after TheRyanKing07 raised from the button. TheRyanKing07 made the call and found his Ad-Qc ahead of henchness24’s Kc-8c. The board fell jack-high and henchness24 finished in 5th.

TheRyanKing took a dominating chip lead after sending Paul Merson home in 4th. Merson raised to 130,000 pre-flop and only TheRyanKing07 called. On a flop of 9d-5c-4s, TheRyanKing07 check-raised Merson all-in. Merson made the call holding Ah-9h for top pair. TheRyanKing07 held Kh-5h for middle pair. The turn 3h missed both players, but the river 5s gave TheRyanKing07 trip fives and send Paul Merson home in 4th.

A deal was discussed between the three players. Terms were agreed to and the deal payouts are as follows:

TheRyanKing07 $106,759.75

buttsauce23 $90,795

perlini1 $66,060.97

$8,100 was played out for. First would receive an additional $6,058.87 and 2nd and additional $2,094.17. Third would get a whopping 2 cents additional. That’s about what Ac-5d is worth. Perlini1 called an all-in shove from TheRyanKing07 with said A-5 and was actually ahead of TheRyanKing07’s 7-6. A six on the flop was enough to send perlini1 to the rail to receive those extra two pennies. Don’t spend it all in one place.

The final hand of this event was as sick a hand as one would want to see. TheRyanKing07 raised to 169,999 from the button and buttsauce33 made the call. The flop fell Ks-Qh-10s and action was checked around. The turn fell the 8s and the fireworks kicked off. Buttsauce33 bet 222,222 and TheRyanKing07 raised to 666,999. Buttsauce33 three-bet to 1.52 Million and TheRyanKing07 moved all-in. Buttsauce33 snap-called and revealed that he had turned a flush, holding Qs-5s. TheRyanKing07 held Kh-8d for two pair. TheRyanKing07 had four outs to win the hand. As was evidenced earlier in the game, the poker gods were smiling favorably on TheRyanKing07 this day as the 8h hit the river to give TheRyanKing07 a full house and the win. Buttsauce33 finished in 2nd and took an additional $2,094.17 home.

TheRyanKing07 is the champion of this week’s Full Tilt Sunday 750k. He was able to catch lucky at just the right time and walked away with over $112,000 in cash and the coveted title. Congratulations.
