After almost a week of poker action, Melbourne local Oliver Speidel has won the most prestigious poker tournament in the Southern Hemisphere, the 2012 $10,600 Buy-In Aussie Millions Main Event.

Speidel has had an incredible Aussie Millions series and yesterday's win is the icing on the cake that all poker players dream of. Last year was the first time the event was won by a local player, and Speidel will certainly be partying over the coming days in celebration of his monumental victory.

This year's Aussie MIllions saw 659 players stump up the $10,600 buy-in needed to take your seat creating a massive $6,590,000 prize pool, the largest for any sporting event in the country.

As if winning the Aussie Millions wasn't cool enough, Speidel did it in the ultimate fashion when his final winning hand was nothing other than two black aces, A♣ A♠.

Oliver even managed to fulfil the wish of the i2i Poker TV Director(Rob Huxley), when he won he dove onto the table and washed himself in cold hard cash, the finish was certainly worthy of a monumental victory and a special moment for the young local player.

American music blogger Sandeep Pulusani has won Event 3 $1,100 NLH Shootout at the 2012 Aussie Millions collecting $37,500 for his efforts.

Pulusani is a veritable legend in the music world and is the music blogger behind the website Vibe Addict. Pulusani's has enjoyed moderate success in poker with his biggest cash to date being $13,020 at the 2011 WSOP where he finished 34th in the $1,500 NLH event. This win represents the first major title for the American and it is safe to say that we haven't seen the last of him in the poker world.

Local fan favourite Jackie Glazier was poised to take down her first Aussie Millions title however an ice cold deck would send the local female pro to the rail in a disappointing 6th place finish. Glazier had a horrendous run of luck when her Pocket Aces were taken down by Ace-Jack and her Ace-King was beaten by Ace-Seven sending her to the rail.

In the end, it was the final table chip leader and previous Aussie Millions Championship Ring bearer Oliver Speidel who would go head to head with Sandeep for the title. Unfortunately for Speidel there was no repeat Championship for him as Pulusani would eventually walk away with the title and the glory of being the Aussie Millions Event 3 Champion.

The 2012 Aussie Millions is now in full swing with two championship rings having already been awarded in the past few days. Today will see yet another Aussie Millions Championship ring awarded as play at the final table of event 3 $1,100 NLH Shootout concludes at midday inside the Crown Poker Room.

Leading the charge at today's final table will be Oliver Speidel who carries to the table the chip lead and enough experience to take down the title. Last year Speidel won a Championship ring at the 2011 Aussie Millions in the $1,100 NLH event, and to make things even more interesting he is joined by Englishman Mark Segal who has also experienced the thrill of winning an Aussie Millions Championship event taking down the $1,100 NLH event in 2010. Mark comes to the table relatively short in chips, but what he lacks in chips he no doubt makes up for in experience.

Without doubt though, all eyes will be on local favourite and female poker sensation, Jackie Glazier who comes to the final table third in chips and looming for a major title. Jackie burst onto the poker scene in early 2010 when she made a deep run in the worlds most prestigious poker event, the $10,000 buy-in World Series Of Poker. Jackie will be railed by a large crowd today hoping she can cement her position in the poker world as one of the best players on the tour.
