Alex Foxen and Daniel Negreanu led the final table on the last day of the tournament. Negreanu was second in chips, but twenty minutes into the final table, he climbed up the ladder to take the charge. 

Foxen scored the first elimination of the final table by sending out Nacho Barbero in 6th place, pocketing $52,000. Negreanu soon extended the lead by knocking out the table-short Nick Schulman in 5th place. Schulman collected $67,600 for his impressive tournament run. 

Ten minutes later, Negreanu sent Jeremy Ausmus to the railbirds in 4th place. Ausmus with just 4 big blinds moved all-in holding Ac-Kc-8s-3c. Negreanu called, rolling off his Kd-Jc-10s-7s. The board fell Js-9d-3d-Jd-6c to give Negreanu trips of jacks. Ausmus pocketed $93,600. 

PGT PLO Event #3 winner Matthew Wantman soon fell prey to the dominating run of Negreanu. Wantman busted out in 3rd place, adding $119,600 to his earnings. Because of his deep finish in Event 6, he leads the PGT PLO II Leaderboard. 

In the heads-up battle, Negreanu held 9,700,000 chips against Foxen’s 3,300,000. Negreanu didn’t give Foxen any time to chip up, as he soon eliminated him. The final hand saw Daniel Negreanu moving all-in post-flop with Ah-Qc-6c-2c. Foxen thought for some second but eventually called with Ad-10c-7d-4h. The board displayed Qs-10h-Qh-Ac-10d, giving Negreanu a full house.
