Who's going to the Aussie Millions in January?

Charlie Frank · #1 11-15-05, 12:45 PM

I'll be playing the $1600 Speed Poker Event, some of the smaller buy in events, and (hopefully - if I win a satellite) the 10K Main Event.

WSOP champ Joe Hachem will be there (his local poker room, being a Melbourne local).

Any TP posters planning on making the trip Down Under?

When is this? Are there still satellites running anywhere?

Spidey44 · #3 11-15-05, 08:33 PM

I believe party has some sats running.

dont think stars will run any sats on this as the dates clash with the bahamas WPT event...

so i dont think i got a chance to go...

I would really like to go, i mean, how fun would it be, but i don't think i can! Have fun if any of u go though!

Well then.... I won't even be trying. I want to go to that Bahamas WPT event VERY BADLY. I just haven't had time for any satellites lately

There's satellites running on Party, Stars, and Titan.

An Australian poker forum is giving away 25 seats to the Speed Poker event as a promotion. Each seat is worth is $1600! (pokernetwork.com)

Whats the dates for Bahamas WPT?

TP, this is the plan for ya:

1. You win one of these free Speed Poker seats.
2. You fly out to Australia to play the tourney.
3. I suck out on you at final table and win the tournament

4. I buy you a dozen Johnnie Walker Blue's to make up for my suckout - and then we hit the Spearmint Rhino!

PS. Spearmint Rhino is a classy gentlemen's club around the corner from the casino where lots of the poker players like to hang out

Man...................... this sounds pretty tempting. I'm not a big fan of the suckout part, but I like the rest.

Where do you live? In Melbourne? Kinda ironic, cause I live in Melbourne too... only my Melbourne is in FL.

When's the Bahamas WPT event? I'm heading there (although Freeport, not Paradise).

Charlie Frank · #11 11-17-05, 01:30 PM

I actually live in Brisbane, QLD, which is about 2000 clicks from Melbourne, but only a 3 hr flight.

I'll be staying at the Crown Hotel for the 2 weeks.

Win a satellite or a free seat!!!

i spoke too soon and im sorry.

just got the stars newsletter in my email talking about that, among other things, aussie sats will run on stars soon.

p.s.: im really glad that stars is starting to run sats to more and more non-stars sponsored big events other than the WSOP.
