The final table commenced with "c0rbl1meyguv" from the United Kingdom leading the pack, holding a formidable chip count of 3,384,049 chips, equivalent to 97 big blinds. Meanwhile, "Dimidroll" from the same country started the final table with the shortest stack, boasting 591,528 chips, or 17 big blinds.
The action was intense from the get-go. "Dimidroll" doubled up early in the final table with pocket eights, winning a crucial coinflip against "diego7791" who held ace-queen. This significant boost in chips propelled "Dimidroll" to 1.2 million, providing some breathing room in play.

The final hand saw "AnglerFishy" from Ireland holding pocket sevens, but unfortunately, they couldn't hold up against "InTheMani's" ace. This left "AnglerFishy" busting in third place, setting the stage for a heads-up battle between "InTheMani" and "Dimidroll."
