Day 1c Complete

That'll be all from Day 1c and from all the day one's of the 2010 Aussie Millions Main Event.

With 270 players competing in the third flight, the total field came to 746. This represents an increase of 65 players, and comes just one player short of the 2007 event. The record remains the 2008 event which was 780 players.
In all it looks like the players and poker room have done a great job in supporting the event.

Some big names came to the felt today including the Brothers Hachem (Joe and Tony), as well as Tony G, Mark Vos, Chris "Moorman1" Moorman, Clonie Gowen, Josh "JJ Prodigy" Field, Andrew "Adgee" Jeffreys, Jan Suchanek, and Rayan Nathan.

At the end of seven levels Pierre Aoukar would be the flight chip leader at 178,500. Some of the notables survived too - Steve Topakas (94,000), Tony G (86,000), and Mark Vos (35,000) will all be progressing to day two, amongst a host of other players.

With that the business end of the tournament begins tomorrow, with approximately 300 players returning as the long trek to the champion continues.

Join us from 12:30pm GMT+11 as we continue to countdown to the 2010 Aussie Millions Main Event champion.
