Seat 6: 574,000

Grant Levy is the highest profile player at this final table, thanks to his victory in the 2007 APPT Grand Final in Sydney, which saw him become the first Australian to win $1 million on home soil. Some may not know that his first break in poker actually came twelve months ago, in this very same event, where his 3rd place finsh saw him collect $130,000.

Grant received his seat into today event thanks to PokerNetwork.com, who awarded him the Junior Player of the Year for 2007.

Grant is married with 2 children, and still considers himself an amateur in the world of poker. Grant keeps his feet on the ground by teaching physical education a couple of days a week.

Back-to-back final tables is an incredible achievement, and we're sure Grant will be looking to finish higher than his placement last year.
