It was a sneaky victory.

TOFF7 started the overall nine because the short stack and would reprise that role several times within the final table.

Our eventual champion started six, four and three-handed play because the shortstack and went into the heads-up match with a 2-to-1 chip defecit.

But TOFF7 always doubled up when necessary. Then, within the final few hands of play, TOFF7 came out of the wordwoorks and toppled over waytoray, who had dominated nearly all of the general table.

Aside from waytoray, TOFF7 outlasted a field of 11,478 players. All of them paid $8.80 a work and created a $91,824 prize pool.
