Lun Loon was eliminated in ninth place at the final table after he jammed his pocket jacks in the small blind. Nacho Barbero called from the big blind with ace-four suited and flopped trip aces to take Loon out. 

Ana Marquez picked up her first Triton cash in eighth place. Barbero raised the button, Matthias Eibinger jammed with king-queen offsuit in the small blind, and Marquez jammed her short stack with an ace-queen offsuit. A king-high board gave the pot to Eibinger. 

Jeffrey "Boski" Sluzinski was eliminated in seventh place. He shoved his king-jack offsuit in the cutoff and was dominated by Barbero's ace-jack offsuit. Neither player improved their hand, and Barbero's ace-high took down the pot.

Talal Shakerchi, Sebastian Gaehl, Eibinger, Dao Minh Phuk, and Barbero were all eliminated in a flurry of bustouts in places six through two as the blinds escalated quickly. 

In the end, it was Leathem left standing shortly after 2 am local time.
