London IT consultant and player Vamshi Vandanapu took home the honours and a prize worth GBP 62,750 following a three-way deal at the final table.
The chop Sunday night saw Vandanapu, 44-year-old Irishman Robbie Richwood and Cristian Popescu (33) from Romania agree a chop guaranteeing each GBP 50,000, with GBP 12,750 left on the table for the eventual winner.
Shortly thereafter Popescu exited at third, leaving Vandanapu and Richwood in the heads up, where the former managed to gain the upper hand and victory.
