Daniel Negreanu had the chip lead coming into Thursday's final with six players remaining. He had lost the lead by later in the afternoon.
The 6-handed event will pay a cool $1.4 million. Negreanu was already guaranteed more than $300,000.
"I helped create this event when it was originally created years ago," Negreanu said. "I always was so disappointed I hadn't done better. I had a couple of cashes and last year came in 12th. I always felt, especially this year more than ever, that it's something I wanted to win.
"I've won Player of the Year twice, but this is the best year I've ever had, especially if I can top it off with a bracelet. I'd have six top 20 finishes."
