Australia’s Serge Osalan became the second local player to be crowned a champion at the 2017 Aussie Millions at Crown Melbourne after taking down the fourth event of the series for AUD$58,315. Event #4 featured an AUD$1,150 buy-in and was the first of four pot-limit Omaha events on the schedule.
Osalan not only recorded his first win in an Aussie Million event, but this also represented his first tournament win overall and his first cash in any Aussie Millions tournament.
The event began on Jan. 16 with 237 runners, up from the 217 players who played the same event in 2016 when Japan’s Yuki Ko won the top prize of AUD$54,500.
