Level 29
: 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante
Lin Shi raised to 250,000 from the button before Manny Stavropoulos moved all in for 1.650 million in chips. Peter Matusik folded his big blind before Shi called.
Stavropoulos: 
Shi: 
Stavropoulos was in front with his small pair even after the flop fell 
.
Shi had plenty of outs going into the turn, and he would hit the trump card, as the 
dropped on the turn.
A Royal Flush for Shi would see him and Stavopoulos shake hands as the meaningless 
completed the board.
A great result for Stavropoulos who now adds a 3rd place finish - in the largest ANZPT main event ever - to a resume that includes taking down this years Aussie Millions Main Event.
