The top 255 places paid in the tournament, the first prize was set to be $1,612,843.75. The Russian player who usually plays SNGs and plays at lower stakes won $1,000,907, which is clearly a life-changing amount of money compared to Maratik's $11,000 total profit at SNG tables.
As the final 6 decided to strike a deal, the 4th place finisher Mike 'munchenHB' Telker won almost as much money as the victorious Maratik.
