Also known as the Australian Poker Championship, the Aussie Millions is an annual series of poker tournaments held at the Crown Casino, in Melbourne, Australia. Players from all over the world compete in the Southern Hemisphere’s richest poker tournament as Melbourne poker takes center stage.
Titan Poker players have the opportunity to win seats at these prestigious tournaments in Australia by participating in online satellite play. Team Titan members have demonstrated their skills by raking in the prizes in this festival of Australian poker.
Titan Poker has launched an online satellite series awarding $16,000 prize packages to the 2012 Aussie Million Poker Championship Main Event, which takes place January 22nd – 28th, 2012 in Melbourne.
Team Titan player Sam Trickett won the $100,000 Challenge, the largest buy-in event on the 2011 Aussie Millions schedule. Trickett’s first place winnings of $1,525,000 AUD already surpassed his entire live tournament income from 2010. Trickett, a 24-year-old player from East Retford in the United Kingdom, outlasted 37 of the world’s most prominent poker players in the two-day, high roller event.
Just days later, the Aussie Millions staged a $250,000 Super High Roller event, and Sam Trickett was one of 20 players who paid the hefty $250,000 AUD buy-in. Sam took the chip lead for the final table and eliminated David Benyamine in 3rd place. In heads-up play against Erik Seidel, the tables were turned, and Sam ended up finishing in second place, for a prize of $1,400,000 AUD. Quite a week for him with two huge prizes at the 2011 Aussie Millions.
Team Titan captain Sorel Mizzi played in the Aussie Millions Main Event, which this year attracted 721 starters for a prize pool of $7,210,000 AUD. Sorel went deep into the money stage of the tournament before being eliminated just short of the final table when his full house was bested by a better full house. He finished in 9th place with a win of $130,000 AUD. The event was won by Australian David Gorr.
The 2010 Australian Poker Championship attracted 746 starters and the player who emerged at the top was Australian Tyron Krost, who took home the first prize of $2,000,000.
Canadian Sorel Mizzi finished in third place for a prize of $715,000. It was the start of an amazing year for Sorel, who became Team Titan captain in May and ended up as Bluff Magazine’s Player of the Year.
Australian poker stalwart, Stewart Scott, outlasted Peter Rho of the United States to capture the Aussie Millions 2009 title. Over a grueling seven days of competition, Scott beat out 681 competitors, all vying for a piece of the $6,810,000 AUD total prize pool. Scott took home a record $2 million for his victory. 63 other competitors took home prize money as well.
