Maria Ho gave it the old college try but in the end, Allen Bari's chip lead proved to be unsurmountable. Ho did have quite the cheering section rooting her on but this was Allen Bari's tournament to win - and he sure did just that.


First bracelet for Bari who steps into the PTPR Tournament Player of the Year Top 15 Leaderboard. The outspoke Bari earned his third PTPR Score of the season with the win.

This tournament was supposed to end on Saturday but, as Final Four play dragged onto the early hours, tournament officials decided to bring them back Sunday for a short session.

FINAL FOUR PAYOUTS:
1st 874,116 - Allen Bari
2nd 540,020 - Maria Ho
