The finals began Sunday morning with eight players left in the competition. First to the tables was Dorfman (USA) who played against David Steicke (Australia). Steicke found himself out of the running in eight hands. Fifteen minutes later, Tony G. (Lithuania) went up against Andrew Feldman (England) and came out the winner.
