Seat 1 - Mike Del Vecchio (30, United States), 5,465,000
It's not a bad record to have in Melbourne; two trips to the Aussie Millions and two Main Event final tables. Mike Del Vecchio was always going to headline the final day's play should he have made it to the final table, but after snatching the chip lead away from Hamish Crawshaw in dramatic fashion on Day 4, the American sits atop the pile with over five million in chips.
In 2018, Del Vecchio came into the final table fourth in chips and eventually finished fifth for AU$370,000 (US$299,033). This year he's coming in as the chip lead, and will be eyeing up one of the bigger scores when play gets underway.
