2012 Aussie Millions Champ Eliminated
Level 4
: 150/300, 25 ante
Back in 2012, Oliver Speidel topped a field of 659 players to win this very event for AUD$1.6 million. Speidel was in action here on Day 1a, but his hopes of a second Aussie Millions title recently came to an end courtesy of Full Tilt Poker Ambassador Tom Grigg.
Speidel got off to a rough start, and for the last couple of levels he's been nursing a short stack of around 3,000. His final hand came when Grigg opened under the gun and another player flatted. Speidel opted to jam for 2,800, Grigg isolated with a four-bet, and the flatter folded. Speidel tabled 
and found himself in dire straits against Grigg's 
. The board ran out clean and that was all she wrote for Speidel.
