After that, Ryan Eriquezzo was eliminated, losing with two pairs to Christopher Trombley’s set. In heads-up, Trombley came out with a stack of 18.2 million chips, and Roberto Lupo had 12.6 million. Lupo and Trombley fought for about 3.5 hours. In the final hand, Lupo went all-in for 7 million with J-8o, and Trombley instantly called with 9-2s. K-10-3-9-5 appeared on the board; Trombley put together a pair and became the champion. Lupo, who became a runner-up, received 164,511 USD, and his career earnings increased to 449,796 USD.

“I took a slightly more tortuous path, raising with a couple of nines and forcing him to call. And he ended up with nothing on the river when he couldn’t finish the flush. I was ready for a flush, but I felt that my pair was good. When I had a short stack, I didn’t panic; I just had to be patient,” Trombley said after the victory.

The prizes included such poker players as James Calderaro (11th), Scott Baumstein (21st), Brian Battistone (25th), Dylan Smith (32nd), Daniel Couzens (42nd), Ryan D’Angelo (44th), Brett Apter (50th), Nadya Magnus (51st), Athanasios Polychronopoulos (53rd), Aaron Thivyanathan (56th), Paul Snead (64th), Maxwell Young (70th), TK Miles (83rd), Jeremy Joseph (87th), Loni Harwood (91st), Natasha Mercier (100th), Matt Waxman (105th), Jake Schwartz (110th), Chris Tryba (112th), Jeffrey Trudeau (118th), Neil Blumenfield (120th), Luke Graham (139th), and Steven Karp (145th).
