Some of the notables who failed to make the money included Andrew "And_Porter" Porter, Aubrey "RiverMeDaddy" Williams, and Mark "NaigoPA" Foresta. On the other hand,Jeff "TheSwagWagoon" Stellwagon (29th) and Vince "FuglyFunGuy" Lestingi (17th) would finish in the money, but bust short of the final table.
"JesusTrackTeamC" actually started out the final table as one of the shorter stacks, but it didn't take them long to rise up the counts. They would get up to over a million before the biggest pot of the final table, where they would flop a set of kings, and then turn quads to secure a massive double up.
"JesusTrackTeamC" actually wouldn't secure a knockout at the final table until they busted "KnightsofNight" in fourth place. "JesusTrackTeamC" had another monster hand in that one, pocket aces, and bested the flop top pair of their opponent.
"JesusTrackTeamC" would then win a flip to bust "fubadbeatbob" in third place, before making quick work of "dubbadell" heads up.
