Stewart Scott is AussieMillions Champion

Australian Stewart Scott took down a star studded 681 player field to win AUD $2 million.  Amazingly the 36 year old took the chip lead on day 4 and never relinquished it.  That is certainly an awesome accomplishment.

American Peter Rho took home second place and half of Scott’s prize winnings.  The buy-in for the main event was AUD $10,500.

Scott noted that he was running good and said that “dreams can come true” in an interview shortly after winning. The final heads up battle of Rho vs. Scott lasted only 13 hands, ending in a very climatic fashion as Scott won with pocket aces.

Here is the full clip of Scott after winning the AussieMillions 2009.
