Suchanek Leads Aussie Millions Event #2: $2,500 H.O.R.S.E. Final Table

Jan Suchanek will be looking to win his first Aussie Millions ring for eight years when the final table of the H.O.R.S.E. gets underway at 1 pm, with the New Zealander sitting pretty at the top of the chip counts.

However, he won't have it all his own way with former Aussie Millions Main Event winner Ari Engel sitting in second place. Also featuring is 2017 H.O.R.S.E. runner-up Rainer Quel and a whole host of other notable players from Australia and around the world.

Flights 3 and 4 of the Opening Event Take Place Today

Two more flights of the $1,000,000 guaranteed Opening Event take place today, with players no doubt hoping to join the 66 who have guaranteed their place in Day 2.

A stack over 100,000 will do you good, but you will have to top 200,000 to replace Zack Lowrie at the top of the chip counts.
