"Sim0nK," also of Lithuania, fell in fifth for $3,191, with two Brazilians crashing out in quick succession and leaving only two players in the hunt for the title; "joelmito" ($3,608) and "GiordanoKK" ($4,823) being those busted Samba stars.
Heads-up pitted Germany's "alligatorboy" against "blachu3232" of Argentina. Blachu3232 had alligatorboy on the ropes for a large part of the one-on-one battle, and eventually clinched the title when their pocket sixes flopped a set and rivered a boat to stay way ahead of their opponent's queen-ten. Blachu3232 won the $200 mystery bounty that was on the head of alligatorboy plus the $140 that started on their head, taking their total bounty haul to $1,390 and their overall prize $9,130.
