The short stack, Vincent Eley, was the first to exit, at the 200,000/400,000/40,000 level. On the button, Vincent Eley went all in for 2,321,820 with A?4? and jbrown04 called in the big blind with A?8?. The board fell Q?5?10?2?A? and Vincent Eley was out in ninth place for $12,129.60. Jon "G6Dragon" Lane departed the final table at 250,000/500,000/50,000. IRENE666 raised to 1,500,000 in middle position and Lane shoved from the big blind for 5,414,071. IRENE666 called and tabled A?Q? to Lane's A?10?. The board rolled out 9?4?7?2?J? and Lane finished in eighth place for $19,927.20. Princess480 was felted shortly thereafter. Down to 1,676,034, Princess480 went all in with J?10? and found action from StefanProdan, who held K?10?. No help came for Princess480, who finished in seventh place for $30,324.

IRENE666 was eliminated at 300,000/600,000/60,000. On the button, IRENE666 moved in for 5,751,752 with K?Q? and was looked up by chip leader jbrown04 in the big blind, who held 4?4?. The board ran out 8?J?7?A?3? and IRENE666 was sent away in sixth place for $43,320. At 400,000/800,000/80,000, WlkRambo bit the dust. StefanProdan opened to 1,768,502 under the gun and from the big blind, WlkRambo went all in for 10,580,218 with 6?6?. StefanProdan quickly called with J?J? and won the hand as the board came 2?10?4?8?3?. WlkRambo collected $60,648 for fifth. A deal was discussed and eventually agreed upon by the four remaining players. Each was guaranteed the following, leaving $30,000 to the winner:

jbrown04: $152,046.89

StefanProdan: $138,296.06

Bob Vitis: $104,868.73

wywrotX: $100,000

Shortly after play resumed, wywrotX went out in fourth place. As the first to act, wywrotX went all in for 8,092,933 with Q?2? and jbrown04 called from the big blind with A?Q?. The board rolled out 6?4?7?J?10? and wywrotX collected his $100,000. Bob Vitis busted the next hand when jbrown04 shoved with the big stack from the small blind. Bob Vitis called all in for 11,270,793 with K?Q? and was slightly behind jbrown04's A?8?. Bob Vitis took the lead when the flop came 7?Q?3?, but the 10? turn card clinched the hand for jbrown04 with the nut flush. The river was a meaningless 2? and Bob Vitis took third place for $104,868.73.

Heads-up play began with jbrown04 holding almost a 2:1 lead, but StefanProdan turned the tables en route to the victory. On the final hand, at 500,000/1,000,000/100,000, jbrown04 opened to 2,350,000 and StefanProdan went all in with the big stack. Jbrown04 called all in for 12,599,692 with K?J? and was ahead of StefanProdan's 9?8?. However, the board came 6?2?4?4?9? and jbrown04 finished in second place for $152,046.89, with StefanProdan collecting $168,296.06 for winning the Stars Sunday Million.

Fetus fell in third place after tangling with Jay Kinkade. Fetus opened to 250,000 on the button and Kinkade called in the big blind. The flop came Q?9?8? and Kinkade checked to Fetus, who fired out 1,100,000. Kinkade min-raised it to 2,200,000 and Fetus called all in with 7?6? for the open-ended straight draw. Kinkade tabled Qd9s for top two pair and when the 9? landed on the turn he made a winning full house. The river was a meaningless K? and Fetus had $58,632 for third.

Jay "THE_GOLDMINE" Kinkade - 6,785,243

daPHUNNIEman - 5,778,757

At 60,000/120,000/15,000, Kinkade opened to 277,777 and daPHUNNIEman called. The flop came 2?8?3? and both players checked, bringing the 4? turn. 305,000 went into the pot from each player and the 2? hit the river. A series of raises led to daPHUNNIEman calling all in, but mucking when Kinkade tabled A?2? for rivered trips and the winning hand. The runner-up showing earned daPHUNNIEman $89,539.44, with Jay "THE_GOLDMINE" Kinkade winning the Full Tilt $750,000 Guarantee for $147,911.78.
