Man Down

We'd only just started roaming the Crown Poker Room when we noticed Leo Boxell standing up and leaving his seat. We discovered that he'd turned the Broadway straight holding {K-?}{Q-?} on a board of {J-?}{7-?}{A-?}{10-?} against an opponent holding a set with pocket jacks.

But a fourth jack on the river made his opponent quads and sent "The Mechanic" back home.

Shuffle Up and Deal!

The players are trickling in and taking their seats for today's event and the cards are in the air.

There are still many dead stacks around the room with one table starting with only two live players!

Turbo Charged Action Hits Crown Poker Room

After the excitement of the 2009 Aussie Millions Main Event wrapping up last night and most players letting their hair down at the player's party, many present are moving a little slowly today as they get themselves motivated for the last of the significant tournaments of the Championships.

Today's it's Event #17 - $1,100 No-Limit Hold'em Turbo as we should see a good-sized take to the felt in one of their last opportunities to secure some Aussie Millions coin!

The action kicks off at 12:30 p.m. local time so see you then!
