Players were eliminated as follows:

8th Place: Bryce Clark, $1,242
Bryce Clark went 'all in' before the flop with A-5 and found himself behind John, who held A-Q. The flop of 2=6=8 was no help and a jack on the turn gave him a three outer to stay alive. The eight on the river was not the help he needed, as he finished the event in 8th place, earning $1,242
7th Place: Eric Leathers, $1,552
Eric re-raised Fil 'all-in' after he came into the pot for a raise. Fil called with K-J and Eric led with pocket tens. The flop of 8=K=6 changed the lead in the hand. A jack on the turn gave Fil two pair. Eric failed to catch the ten he needed on the river, and finished the event in 7th place, worth $1,552.
6th Place: Kevin Roser, $1,862
Kevin Roser tried to make the move when he pushed 'all in' after a flop of A=10=8. His open ended straight draw trailed Jeb, who called with top pair of A-Q. A three on the turn did not make his straight, and while the nine on the river gave him the pair of nines, it was not enough as Kevin finished the event with 6th place and $1,862.
5th Place: Brian Gabrielle, $2,173
Fil took another victim as Brian pushed 'all in' after the flop of 10=6=9. Holding 10-8 and top pair, Fil called and found himself ahead against Brian's A-K. A queen on the turn was no help to Brian. The six outer did not come, as a six hit the river, giving Brian Gabrielle 5th place and $2,173.
4th Place: John Kacher, $2,483
John Kacher went 'all in' after the river. He had been involved in the pot with Fil and they had been heads up since before the flop. The board of K-J-4-Q-2 gave each player top pair. However, John's K-6 left him out-kicked, as Fil held K-8. John took home 4th place honors, as well as $2,483.
3rd Place: Jeb Hutton, $3,414
After Fil had called Jeb's re-raise before the flop, both players saw a flop of Qc=Ks=5c. Jeb went 'all in' with A-J and the inside straight. Fil called with Kc-4c. His top pair and flush draw left Jeb with few outs. Only a ten or ace that was not a club could help him. A jack on the turn gave one more out, but it did not fall as the river brought an eight, giving Jeb Hutton 3rd place and $3,414.
Runner up: Stephanie Harkey, $6,208
1st Place: Fil Humphreys, $11,174
After just a few hands heads up, Stephanie pushed it 'all in' on the button with K-J and Fil called with his huge chip lead and Q-J. Dominated before flop, Fil took the lead after a flop of Q=2=8. Stephanie was then on the ropes as she needed a king to stay alive. A jack on the turn was no help, giving Fil two pair. The final card of the tournament was a river four, giving Stephanie Harkey the 2nd place finish and $6,208. Our tournament champion, Fil Humphreys, .
