2009 Aussie Millions

Steicke Chip Leader As Day 1 Wraps Up

An entertaining day of poker of highest quality with the biggest poker stars in the game...what more could you ask for? Ivey, Hansen, Antonius, Guoga, Ferguson and Seidel all came and went on a day that had it all.

With so many experienced professionals in the field it's refreshing that the relatively inexperienced David Steicke has been able to mix it with the best in the business and head home tonight as the overnight chip leader.

Steicke, Tran, Bloom, Jordanou, Shak and Juanda will all be back in the Crown Poker Room at 4 p.m. as they play it out for the AU$1.2 million first place prize and coveted Aussie Millions Gold Ring.

Also don't forget tomorrow that it's time for the big one! It's the opening flight of the 2009 Aussie Millions Main Event. All the live action kicks off at 12:30 p.m. local time so log in to PokerNews for every flop, turn and river as it happens live from the tournament floor! See you then!
