Oscar "KungKroon" Kroon — 2,611,212
Tokmak — 2,239,292
Robert "perky264" Perkins — 1,235,394
Pat "TorontoToro" Pezzin — 1,008,658

Dan "Wretchy" Martin — 872,442
LtDansLegs — 762,667
ApesAreFun — 740,727
stiletto girly — 477,546
Stiletto girly departed from the final table during the 17,000/34,000/4,000 level. From the cutoff, stiletto girly went all in for 489,546 with 4♦4♥, but Pat "TorontoToro" Pezzin woke up with Q♥Q♣ in the big blind and called. The flop came 9♣4♠J♣ and put stiletto girly ahead. The 6♣ turn gave a few more outs to Pezzin and the Q♠ fell on the river to give Pezzin the better set. The ninth-place showing meant stiletto girly pocketed $10,050. Pezzin, though, lost most of his stack when his A-K failed to connect against ApesAreFun's pair of eights. Pezzin busted when, in a multi-way pot, his hand was mucked as Robert "perky264" Perkins' K♣K♥ was best on a board of 3♦5♠3♠10♥9♥. Pezzin won $13,500 for his performance.
During the 25,000/50,000/6,000 level, Surfbum4life got it all in for 1,388,875 with Q♦Q♠ against Robert Perkins' A♦K♠. The board fell 6♥K♦8♦A♣A♥ as Surfbum4life busted in seventh place for $17,250. ApesAreFun had no fun later in the level in a hand against LtDansLegs. All in for 434,739, ApesAreFun needed help with A♣10♦ against LtDansLegs' 7♥7♠. However, the board ran out Q♠K♦9♠4♠Q♦ and ApesAreFun hit the rail in sixth place for $23,025.
Dan "Wretchy" Martin busted from the tournament at 30,000/60,000/7,500. LtDansLegs raised to 144,444 from the cutoff and Martin went all in for 506,490 on the button with K♦Q♠. LtDansLegs called with A♣7♥, which held up as the board ran out K♣A♠J♣3♠J♠. Martin earned $31,050 for his efforts. Tokmak busted next, at 40,000/80,000/10,000. On the button Tokmak raised to 195,000, and Oscar "KungKroon" Kroon re-raised to 600,000 in the small blind. Tokmak went all in for 1,265,932 with Q♥Q♦ and Kroon called with A♦K♦. The board rolled out 4♣4♠K♥2♠4♥ as Tokmak's fourth-place run netted him $41,400.
At 50,000/100,000/10,000, Robert "perky264" Perkins took out LtDansLegs. Perkins opened to 242,500 on the button and LtDansLegs shoved for 1,114,118. Perkins called with A♦K♠ and had LtDansLegs' A♥Q♥ in trouble. The J♥J♠6♥ flop provided hope for the underdog, but the turn and river came K♣ and 3♣. LtDansLegs finished in third place for $52,500. Heads-up play began with Oscar "KungKroon" Kroon holding a slight lead over Robert "perky264" Perkins, but Perkins prevailed. On the final hand, Kroon raised to 250,000 and Perkins re-raised enough to put Kroon to a decision for his tournament life. Kroon called all in for 1,807,968 with A♣K♠ and had the lead on Perkins' K♣Q♥. However, Perkins spiked the queen as the board fell 6♠3♥Q♠5♠4♠. Kroon was out in second place with $80,250, and Perkins had a $132,787.50 payday for winning the Full Tilt $750,000 Guarantee.
