Tuesday, June 7th: Eran Ben-Ezra Tops "Final Table Finish" Chop, Now Leads Player Of The Month Rankings

ICYMI: Monday's $250 No Limit Hold'em "Final Table Finish" ($20,000 GTD) was one of the recurring tournaments that didn't see any changes in June (as it's perfect just the way it is).  Last night's installment was one of the more highly attended in recent weeks, with registration closing with (122) entries.  The $25,376 prize pool was scheduled to be spread across the final nine spots, with the evening's action playing down to a three-handed final table.  A deal was then agreed upon by the remaining players, which saw Eran Ben-Ezra take home first place money ($6,770), along with 32.55 leaderboard points (putting him atop the rankings).  Official results from the tournament are listed below, along with an updated Player of the Month leaderboard:
