Another day done and dusted in the Crown Poker Room as Aussie Millions $10,000 Main Event Day 1b is now on the books. PokerNews saw 184 players pull up seats throughout the seven levels of play today to take our running total up to 396 – ahead of the 387 that were in contention at the same time last year. With the final Day 1 flight tomorrow, time will tell if the 732-player field from 2016 can be eclipsed.
Today was host to another showcase of exciting poker action, and when all was said and done, it was birthday boy Mustapha Kanit who emerged on top with 215,000.
