From those final ten, I've heard only for Seidel and Balsiger (young gun) and I know that was a though competition so I would like to congrats them first who prove to be a succesful ones in this game. Congrats to the Ami too, very well played tournament.
This was the fastest final table heads up I remember but what was the rush, the chip count only was 3 to 1. If you make it to the final table in a tournement with this size I would think you have enough patience to wait for some better odds to shove. Or maybe his read was off a bit. A little bit. Guess we will never now.

Many congratulations to Ami Barer for taking down the 2014 Aussie Millions Main Event and respect to Sorel Mizzi for earning second place. Unfortunately couldn't watch final table via live streaming due to hour gap. Would like to see all of them battling for chips and specially Scott Seiver who I am big fan since i first saw him at Big game. Jake Balsiger also seems to have what it takes to establish himself among the tops pros. Erik Seidel currently runs hot at $250.000 Challenge(first place/eight players left Daniel Negreanu/ Phil Ivey/ Isaac Xaxton and Tom Dwan among them.

Well isn't that sick, to get AA at a time like that AFTER Sorel shoved his lot, dream come true. Just such a nasty take down in the Aussie Millions, life altering tournament for any victor, or at least ought to be.
I bet that guy is in a Carribean country in a penthouse sweet, with at least five ladies of the night (and day) doing his bidding as he orders bottle after bottle of alcohol.

Canadians topped this event! And it's always so great to have someone entering all-in before we talk with pocket AA! Having that as an event closing hand must be a great feeling, he will safe that picture and place it in a special wall from his house!
