Lim's Hunt for POY Continues

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

David Lim just needs to make the money and he will surpass Edison Nguyen on the ANZ Player of the Year leader board.

This is the last stop of the year too, so that would make him the winner.

Well, his chances are looking good three off the money, especially considering he just doubled up against Dean Blatt - an interesting opponent in this situation as Blatt can also win the prize if he finishes in the top three.

What's even more interesting about this situation is that Lim was all in with {a-Clubs}{q-Spades} against Blatt's {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} and caught running cards on a {10-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{5-Spades} board to make a wheel to win the pot. Lim was all in for 19,000 and so he still only has 15 big blinds, but he is alive and chasing the prize.
