Inaugural ANZPT Champ Crowned In Adelaide

Karl Krautschneider - ANZPT

Karl Krautschneider started the day in the chip lead and finished the day with the chip lead to be crowned a deserved winner of the SKYCITY Adelaide Hold’em Championships Main Event and the first champion on the new PokerStars.net ANZPT.

The counsellor from Melbourne carefully picked his way through a final table loaded with experience to take home the $170,000 first prize ahead of Australian-based American Tony bond18 Dunst. The title was decided when the money went in on a flop of Kc-2s-4c. Dunst showed Kd-2d for two pair while Krautschneider held 9c-8c for a flush draw. The 3d was good for Dunst, but the 7c filled Krautschneider flush.

As a side note, he won entry through a $33 re-buy event on Pokerstars.
