Seat 1: Manny Stavropoulos, 50 (Australia) - 1,570,000 in chips
Melbourne local Manny Stavropoulos is the current reigning Aussie Millions Main Event champion and has guaranteed himself another great run with this final table appearance at Crown Melbourne. Stavropoulos has been playing poker for 10 years and can usually be found at the $5/$10 cash tables.
He says the defining moment in his tournament so far was flopping the nut flush against the second nut flush of fellow final tablist George Balandinos for a big double up. With his efforts here this week Stavropoulos has already locked up the ANZPT Player of the Year honours.
