"Yes!" he shouted. "One time!"

Feature Table Update

Everyday from Day 2 onwards of the Aussie Millions Main Event there is a feature table situated up in the River Room of Crown Casino. Currently at the table now are high profile names such as Erick Lindgren, Keith Sexton, Allen Cunningham and Tiffany Williamson. This is the table which is used for footage on the Aussie Millions DVD package each year. We will keep you posted on the action happening upstairs.

Tony G Likes Pocket Aces

"Hmmm.... should I call with pocket aces??"
"Hmmm.... should I call with pocket aces??"
Tony G's opponent moved all in with a shortstack.

"Do you want me to call? asked Tony G.

His opponent said yes.

The G looked down and found pocket aces and said, "Well if you want a call, I'll guess I'll call."

The G's aces held up and he busted his opponent. The G is sitting on a stack worth 60,000.

Allen Cunningham Eliminated.

Cunningham Eliminated
We have just lost our first player from upstairs. Cunningham raised from the button attacking Jelassi's big blind. Jelassi raised Cunningham back to 19,000 and after tanking for a while Cunningham moved all-in for 90,000 in total. Jelassi instantly called and tabled {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}. Cunningham showed {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts} and did not look comfortable.

The board ran out {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{4-Hearts}.

Cunningham left the River Room looking very dissapointed.

Jelassi now has 340,000 in chips.

Matusow Doubles Up with Aces

"Superstar!"
"Superstar!"
Mike the Mouth had been quiet over the last couple of hours. Well, the Mouth has finally woken up after he doubled up with Aces. He was all in preflop with {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} against {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}. The board ran out {K-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}. Matusow doubled up to close to 80,000.

"I waited all day for f----- aces," he shouted. "Nineteen straight hours to pick up that hand. I told you. I have patience. That's how you win tournaments."
