Didn't realise until I got home who I was watching for a while there. That was fslexcduck near the PokerNews desk wasn't it? She had a massive stack then busted 3 players in the same hand. Didn't see the pre-flop action, just saw the hands tabled. UTG+2 had 99, MP has AK, SB has KK, and she wakes up with AA in the BB lol. Flop JTx all diamonds, no one has a diamond, she fades the 4 outs and busts them all.

Yep that was her. She still has a pretty solid stack.

After twelve levels of poker and nearly eight and a half hours of tournament poker, play has ceased for Day 1a of the $1,100 Opening Event of the 2010 Aussie Millions.

327 players took to the felt today including a barrage of local veterans and amateurs that included the likes of Peter Aristidou, Billy 'The Croc' Argyros, Sam Youssef, Aleks 'Banana Thief' Brkovic, James Broom and Hawthorn Football Club senior player Luke Hodge.

Unfortunately for the previously mention players, they would be forced to return on Saturday to repechage in Day 1c to have another crack at winning the first 2010 Aussie Millions Event.

For the lucky 51 that are currently bagging and tagging their chips, they will have the opportunity to get a few days of well needed and earned rest before returning on Sunday to battle it out on Day 2 for the estimated $250,000 first prize, coveted trophy and title of Event 1 Champion!

Leading the charge for the Day 1a flight is Xen Xenofontos with an impressive 183,300 in chips. Unfortunately for Xenofontos he is closely trailed by some respectable players in Chris Chronis (147,600), Brad Rawiller (143,100) and Tony Hachem (136,600).

Still in the hunt are Jarred 'FlopNutsOnYou' Graham (100,600), David 'LeeWah' Lee (69,900) and international guests Dan Carter (106,900) and Vanessa Selbst {92,400).

With Day 1b action kicking off at 12:30pm tomorrow, make sure to follow the PokerNetwork and Bet 24/7 coverage for every rivered flush, turned straight and flopped straight live from the Crown Poker Room and 2010 Aussie Millions!

In the meantime, cruise the PNW forums or have a flutter on Bet 24/7 - The Sport of Winning.

You're forgiven.

Tim, love to know how Eugene Portlen is doing as well as Tate Lesko

[thkcduckworth]

Eugene is sitting pretty with 38,000 and is seated with Shoshiro Karita and Jia Kemp.

Probably won't move for another few hours, so is looking set at building a stack.
