Dmitry Agrachov would be eliminated on the final table bubble, as the action continued without any discussion of a deal. Even with the stacks as shallow as they were, play went on, with the eliminations of Tony Kern, Ronald Johnston, Julia Bindelglass, and Corey Brysman. Once Brysman exited the table, the tournament clock would be paused, and players requested to hear the ICM numbers. After those numbers were read aloud by tournament staff, a deal was agreed to, with Michael Marks declared the event's winner. It would be Michael's second multi-flight tournament win of the year, and third five-figure score at the Isle Poker Room (in 2018).

Tournaments: With the focus now on the $1,100 No Limit Hold'em Single-Ante ($50,000 GTD), it's a satellite day for the event. Things start a 11:00am, with the first of two $80 No Limit Hold'em "Step Satellite," that will see (1 in 5) players in the field earn entry into one of the two "Mega Satellites" on Wednesday ($240 No Limit Hold'em Mega Satellite). The "step" is structured with starting stacks of the 8,000 units, and levels that last (15) minutes. Registration is open through Level 8, and the break that follows.
The second "step satellite" of the day begins at 6:00pm, and mirrors the structure of the event from earlier in the day.
Promotions: Tuesday's promotions start with the every-popular Full House Early Bird, with the first (25) full houses awarded up to $60. The amount won depends on which game is being played, as 2/2 Limit Hold'em players earn $20 (for each full house while eligible), 2/4 Limit Hold'em players earning $40 (for each full house while eligible), and $60 for those playing: 1/2 No Limit Hold'em, 2/5 No Limit Hold'em, 5/10 No Limit Hold'em, 3/6 Limit Hold'em, and 8/16 O.E.
The standard high hands begin at 10:00am (because off the full house promotion), with the opportunity to win $400 every (30) minutes. During that period, the promotion sees tournament players eligible each half-hour for $100 high hands, 2/2 limit hold'em players eligible for $200 high hands, 2/4 limit hold'em players eligible for $300 high hands, and all other raked games (1/2-5/10 NLH, 4/8 Omaha 8B, 6/12 O.E., etc.) eligible for $400 high hands. From 12:00am-9:00am, players are eligible for $100 high hands every hour.
