Congratulations to Martin Cardno, Event 6 Champion! ($25,347)
Along the way, a plethora of notable names came and went, including Tony Dunst, Jamie Pickering, Roy Vandersluis, James Honeybone, Maurie Pears, Emad Tahtouh, Grant Levy, James Obst, and Tony Hachem, along with PokerNews staff members Heath Chick, Tim Duckworth, and Phi Cao. Play progressed rather quickly, and that trend continued right on through the final table, which lasted less than an hour and a half.
After the dust settled, all of the chips were stacked in front of one man. Martin Cardno picked his way through the field with diligence today, and he is the last man standing tonight. For his work today, he will cash a check for more than AUD $25,000, along with a beautiful glass trophy.
Congratulations once again to Martin Cardno, 2008 PokerNews Cup 6-Handed Champion!
