Heidi May

Earlier we mentioned that 2017 WSOP Ladies Event champion Heidi May was in the field, and we caught up with her at the tables. We asked her how much the Aussie Millions means to Australian poker.

"It brings a lot of people to Australia so it helps out the poker eco-system a fair bit," she said. "The tournament means a fair bit to me. Before this year not so much, but this year definitely.

"It's my first Aussie Millions Main Event! It's not going amazingly well(!) but the cash games have been good. There's a lot more action; a lot more deep stack games. With the Aussie Millions happening at the same time, it just means that everyone is having a bit more fun!"

The Rich Get Richer

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

With the turn showing {A-Spades}{J-Hearts}{3-Spades}{10-Hearts}, a short stack was all in for a mere 1,100 and John Overbeek called. The player at risk turned over his {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} and muck to the surprise of nobody on the table, Overbeek had it once again with the {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} for the turned straight. A blank {7-Clubs} river avoided a split pot and Overbeek added even more to his already impressive stack.

Najeem Ajez also bumped up his stack further, he got there with {A-Spades}{9-Clubs} versus {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} when the board ran out {J-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. When asked by table neighbor Lily Kiletto if he had folded to Kiletto's shove in this very hand, Ajez confirmed that to be the case.
