The Full Tilt $750k Guaranteed featured a small overlay in its prize pool, as "freeman" and "Nocturnick" earned spots at the final table; finishing 4th and 5th for $41k and $31k. Denmark's "Klausen" continues to prove he's one of the top Scandinavian players in online poker, and made $45,000 for placing 2nd in the Full Tilt Sunday Brawl. P5'er "villus" collected $14k for 6th, and "rcrane082985" finished in 8th place for $6,700.
