Seat 2: Michael Kanaan (Sydney, Australia) – 2,845,000 chips
Michael Kanaan is a 29-year old professional poker player from Sydney. He first saw poker on TV four years ago, and now regularly crushes both live and online. He burst onto the scene in 2011 with victory in the ANZPT Sydney Main Event for $195,714 and has followed that up with several other major final table results around the Asia-Pacific including the APPT Cebu Main Event and the ACOP Main Event in Macau.
Michael also has an FTOPS online title to his credit which he considers his biggest highlight in poker.
With the second largest chip stack entering this final table, Michael will be looking to make history as the first two-time ANZPT champion.
