Luo jumped into the lead three-handed, but went into the heads-up portion behind after Martin "titan64" Pochat eliminated Yannick "ProbierEs" Schumacher in 3rd for the chip lead. It didn't take Luo long to reverse the situation though.
After just a few hands of heads-up play, Luo found a couple of cooler hands and held to take down the win and the bracelet. His ¥563,257 win is worth about $87,404 USD, while the ¥422,381 2nd place for Pochat was worth about $65,000.
