In his third final table of the series so far, Jarryd Godena finally got over the hump inside the Crown Poker Room on Sunday, taking down the 2016 Aussie Millions Event #21: $5,000 Six-Max No-Limit Hold'em title.
Godena earned $121,070 in prize money an an LK Boutique Aussie Millions championship ring, ultimately defeating a field of 92 entries.
A total of 19 players returned Sunday to battle it out for the title with 11 spots paid. The money bubble broke when 2016 Aussie Millions standout Michael Seymour busted out and before long, fellow Aussie Jason Pritchard joined him on the rail, bubbling the final table.
The final seven started with 2014 Aussie Millions Main Event champ Ami Barer holding a big lead and fellow Canadian and start-of-day chip leader Benjamin Leblond short.
Leblond would soon get jacks cracked by Jack Salter to finish seventh, but Salter didn't last much longer, getting it in with a weak ace against Barer's queen-high and going broke when Barer paired.
Stevan Chew busted fifth to Barer, getting flushed out when they both got it in with ace-seven. Barer then appeared to be running away with it until he doubled Jarryd Godena, allowing him to push slightly ahead.
Within minutes of Godena leapfrogging Barer, he ran sevens into Godena's jacks in a huge pot to say goodbye fourth and gove Godena a big lead.
George Zisimopoulos busted Brian Yoon third to send himself into a heads-up match with Godenas trailing only slightly. However, it was Godena's day, and although he grinded down and doubled up Zisimopoulos twice, the third time proved the charm, allowing him to win the $5,000 Six-Max crown.
