Shortly before Day 2 got underway, two awards were given out by members of the Australian Poker Hall of Fame.

The first was the Australian Poker Young Achiever Award. After Kahle Burns received this award last year, Joe Hachem was on hand to present.

"Every year we try and recognise someone who is up and coming worked hard on their game," said Hachem. "They've represented Australia all over the world and made big strides. We see this as an encouragement. We see poker in Australia growing every year and we want to encourage people to keep doing what they��re doing."

This year's award went to Alex Lynskey.
