ANZPT Auckland Champion Will be Crowned
![[user162117]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
By the end of the night the next champion of the Australia New Zealand Poker Tour will be crowned as the final 12 return to the SKYCITY Auckland Casino with the hopes of winning the ANZPT Auckland Main Event and the NZ$110,760 that goes along with that honour.
Leading the way with a monster 1,431,500 in chips is Amant Nauhria. The Indian born Kiwi dominated his table late on Day 2 and will now kick off action with just over 175 big blinds.
The closest competitor to Nauhria is David Lim with 1,012,000 in chips, while the next closest is Nicolas Oger who trails on 323,000.Combined, Nauhria and Lim have well over half of all the chips in play.
Also among the final 12 include the likes of Brad Stafford, Jason Cook, Aussies Dean Stevenson and Nathan Gubieski, and the lone lady of the final 12, Angela Brewster. These players will have their work cut out for them to catch Nauhria and Lim, but there is still plenty of time to make a run at the title.
This is the final two tables stack up:
Table 8

|---|---|---|
| 1 | La Rimamaki | 65,500 |
| 2 | Stanislav Chataline | 241,500 |

| 4 | Raybon Kan | 81,500 |
| 5 | Amant Nauhria | 1,431,500 |

Million Chip Shove
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Some people may have thought that with half the chips in play between them, Amant Nauhria and David Lim may have stayed away from each other.
Think again.
One of the first hands of the day started with Lim opening the button to 16,000. Nauhria then three bet to 26,000 and Lim called.
On the 
flop, Nauhria led for 32,000 and Lim called. The 
turn would see Nauhria check and then snap-call a bet of 47,000. The dealer then flipped over a 
on the river.
“All in,” Nauhria instantly said for effectively 950,000.
Lim quickly folded and the pot went to Nauhria.
Shorty Double
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
One of the short stacks has just doubled up.
It was Ia Rimamaki who shoved for 63,500 from under the gun. Stanislav Chataline was next to act and tanked before opting to fold. The action then flew around to Amant Nauhria and he made the call. The rest of the table was out of the way and Rimamaki was at risk and out of his seat.

Nauhria: 
Rimamaki needed to catch some cards and that’s exactly what he did on the 
flop. The turn was a 
and the river a 
and with that Rimamaki was up to around 130,000.

Jason Cook Eliminated in 12th Place (NZ$7,455)
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
We have lost our first player of the day!
It started with Nathan Gubieski opening from under the gun, at which point the action folded around to Jason Cook in the big blind. He three-bet all in for around 60,000 more and eventually Gubieski made the call.
It was Cook at risk holding 
against the 
of Gubieski.
The board ran out 
, with the turn giving Gubieski the lead and enough to send Cook home in 12th place.

Raybon Kan Eliminated in 11th Place (NZ$7,455)
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
The short-stacked Raybon Kan has been sent to the rail as we have now reached the final ten here in the ANZPT Auckland Main Event.
Kan was all in preflop with 
against David Lim’s 
, but the drama was short-lived when Lim flopped the stone-cold nuts on the 
flop. Kan’s only hope was a perfect runner-runner straight-flush to chop – not exactly a great hope.
It was all over when the 
hit the turn and the meaningless river was the 
. Kan was out in 11th place for NZ$7,455 as we’ll now play round-for-round on the two tables for the final table bubble.
