The 2012 Queenstown Snowfest Champion Will Be Crowned Today
Here we are on the final day of the 2012 PokerStars.net Australia New Zealand Poker Tour Queenstown Snowfest Main Event. By the end of the day one player will walk away with all the glory, the NZD$110,600 first-place prize and the ANZPT trophy! The player best pressed to get it done is the chip leader heading into the day, Australia's Ken Demlakian, but he will certainly have his work cut out for him.
It all started six days ago when 149 hopefuls descended upon the SKYCITY Queenstown Casino in New Zealand. Unfortunately for 140 of those players, the dream ended at various points during the week. Fortunately for nine of them, here we are today at the final table.
A stacked final nine will take to the felt today, with some of the best young players Australia has to offer, along with some players who have proven themselves to be fearless over the last couple of days. If one thing is certain, it's that today will be an impressive display of tough poker. Biographies of each player can be seen below and this is how the final table will lineup.
