Wai Leong Chan, with a stack worth 57 blinds, and Bryn Kenney, with a 43 blind stack, sat opposite each other in the final heads-up. However, it was Kenney who gradually worked his way to the top and emerged as the winner. He banked $4,410,000, bringing his live tournament winnings to over $71 million.

In addition, Kenney secured his fourth Triton title, his second Triton Main Event win, and won a Jacob & Co luxury watch, which is only for Triton Main Event champions. Wai Leong Chan earned $2,970,000 for his second-place finish.
