Though short, Day 4 was packed with action from start to finish. We began the day with 18 players, including $100,000 Challenge winner Dan Shak and local favorites Steve 'The Big Show' Topakas and Joel Dodds.

Forgive the cliché, but it was Topakas who stole the show this afternoon, sending the crowd to their feet about once every half an hour, surviving all in after all in before eventually busting from the tournament in 12th place ($100,000 AUD).

Your overnight chip leader is Sorel Mizzi, who finished the day with a 3-1 chip lead over his next closet opponent. Mizzi was absolutely dominant this afternoon, though if you were to ask the man himself, we're sure he's likely to tell you that he had plenty of help from the deck throughout the day. "Run good," he said with a smile at one point in the day, after making quads in a hand against Kosta Varoxis. With so many chips, Mizzi has to be the favorite heading into the final table.

Joining Sorel at the final table is Betfair teammate Annette Obrestad. She is the second female to ever make the Aussie Millions Main Event final table since its conception. Obrestad finished 21st in this same event last year and won one of the preliminary events earlier in the series. If there's anyone who can catch Mizzi, it's her.
