Wow, that looks much better already! The dark spots across the front of the top are all but gone. The cigarette burn is pretty small and I would think it will disappear as you apply toner to the top. If it doesn't, as PuhPow said, it will add some character. If it still bothers you now, a light sanding - very light - might take some of the darkness away.
