Crown Aussie Millions : Heich Takes Home the Gold in Event One
With a guaranteed prize pool of half a million dollars, there was always going to be a massive field for Event One of the 2009 Aussie Millions. A new record of 731 entrants smashed the guarantee by almost a quarter of a million dollars. Only 110 players returned to the Crown Poker Room for Day Two of Event One - $1,100 No Limit Holdem, all of who were eyeing off the first place prize of $150,000.
Dean Blatt started Day Two as chip leader, but it was Christian Heich from Germany who emerged as the first winner of the new Aussie Millions championship rings.
Local favorites Eric Assadourian, David Saab and Jamie Pickering were sent packing early in the game. Emad Tahtouh also found the rail before the money bubble burst.
See, pocket jacks don't always lose!
