Re: Aussie Millions 2009 Arrived safe and sound yesterday - didn't sleep much but there was plenty of music/movies to keep me entertained. Freshened up at the hotel then took a tram round the city and then popped into the casino to see the final table of the 100k buy-in event. Unfortunately, the lack of sleep caught up with me and had to go back to the hotel where I crashed out for about 11 hrs. Off to the tennis and a meal today with the other centrebet qualifiers then hopefully a couple of beers with Washy in preperation for Tuesday :ok

Re: Aussie Millions 2009

Do we know Ade's "real" name so we can track his progress ?:unsure
The mods will know, but I'm fairly sure his first name is Adrian (just realised that's REALLY obvious, but I'm excited already), and I'd guess his surname starts with an H, or was it an S, or do I actually remember at all? He played at the 1st Virgin Poker Festival in Brum, if anyone remembers that far back :unsure. I'd recognise him if I saw him again, but that doesn't help if you're looking down a list of names. mcarthur11 - can you help? Play in day 1c starts at 1:30am our time - :hope :hope :hope :hope :hope

Re: Aussie Millions 2009

52 minutes ago | Posted by TassieDevil Royal Flush Shoots Pampliega to Chip Lead We've just seen our first royal flush of the 2009 Aussie Millions! Normally it can be very difficult to get paid off with a royal flush, but Luis Pampliega didn't have that problem as he sent Graham Woodbine crashing to the rail in dramatic fashion. We caught the action on the river with the board reading 8s.gifks.gifqs.gifqd.gifas.gif. Woodbine had checked to Pampliega who bet out 15,000. Woodbine then check-raised all in for 42,000 in total and Pampliega insta-called and tabled 10s.gifjs.gif for the royal! Woodbine was in shock after turning a full house with his kd.gifkc.gif only to see it shrivel up on the river. Pampliega becomes a runaway chip leader with over 115,000 chips!
Plenty of ''names'' going out to ''his opponent''...which is how Ade would appear.

Re: Aussie Millions 2009 Whats going on?????? Why they are keeping us in the dark??? I presume, Ade survived the day and was to tired to find the net. Otherwise he would have posted already. :hope he is still in. And no news from Washman for 9 days :eek :spank. I hope, he is not sitting outside the casino begging for spare change :eyes.

Re: Aussie Millions 2009

I have a bad feeling ... :sad
Oi - don't blame me ;) Didn't meet up with Ade until Tuesday - he was at a table with Scotty Nguyen when I found him. I'll let Ade tell the rest of his story.... ...as for me, have played 3 side events and 5 sub-supershot sats, finished in 30s in HORSE (of 96), and about 75th in bounty tourney. Got through 3 of the sats into the evening $1150 sats, but got no further. So, enjoying the weather and Melbourne's attractions :cheers

Re: Aussie Millions 2009 Sorry guys - busted on day one Apologies for not posting last night, but as Richard will probably testify I was too disappointed to string two words together. Had tough starting table with Scotty Nguyen and a couple of aggressive Scandinavians. Had a half decent level one when up to 22,000 but it was downhill from there. Had a bit of a running battle with the guy to my left who seemed to pump it up every time I entered a pot and by the end of level 4 was short. The hand that ended it all was a standard 3xBB raise in mid position folded round to me in the SB. I decide to flat call with AK suited. BB calls. Flop comes A K 10 rainbow. I bet out about half pot, and as he had done before the guy to my left put out an oversized re-raise. Oringinal raiser mucks. I think for an age and eventually put him on a weaker A, A10 for a weaker two pair, or AQ, AJ for top pair and an inside straight draw. I re-raise all in and unfortunately he calls straight away with 10’s. No miracle A or K came. Got a handshake and a ‘That’s poker, Baby’ from Scotty Nguyen, who came across as a great guy (wasn’t drinking). An hour outside followed by a few drinks with Richard helped numb the disappointment slightly but still feel gutted this morning. Am now going to relax and enjoy the pleasures of Melbourne for the next 4 days. Cheers Ade
