I haven't played no limit hold em yet, do not think that I am good enough for it, Would be nice to give it a try one day though. I wonder if anyone that plays it actually does go all In at the first go? And how many have won like that? I would be intimidated if a player went all in right off the bat lol so i'd fold, I guess that it probably does work for some people. At the same time though some people have probably lost a bit of money playing like that, wouldn't want to go all in right from the start and be bluffing, especially if you got a bad poker face.

I love to see these kinds of tournaments, they start off with so many players and then over a fairly short period of time the numbers dwindle until there is only a small fraction of players left out of the numbers that originally started. It just goes to show you just how many people they have playing in this tournament when you see that they had to construct new surfaces in order to make more seating capacity for the players.

These players are playing with and for some really serious money. That's easy for them though, they are good at it. Saw the hot sexy gardener from desperate housewives playing, wow hehe that's all that I can say about that. There are some well known faces there, but also a fair few fresh new faces and little known faces. Good to see such a popular, well known and participated in poker tournament having such a broad, diverse range in players participating in it. Breath of fresh air as opposed to your run of the mill regular pro players tournaments.

Melbourne australia is a huge city, I mean massive city. They have trams and all that stuff it is like another world really. The poker crowd at that tournament will be huge no doubt about it, not just in regards to player participation but also when it comes to the amounts of people that go there simply to observe it. Poker was already popular in australia but it is tournaments such as this Aussie Millions poker tournament that I think have helped to make poker even more popular in the country of australia than what it already was. It has always been popular there but the aussie tournament just makes it that bit more out there, gives the game more exposure and with the celebrities from all different fields of work taking place in it its easy to see how this poker tournament can draw such a large spectator crowd.

The aussie millions tournament is absolutely huge. I'm in australia at the moment but won't get to go there because im up in tropical north queensland and we just had an ex tropical cyclone come though here and it's on it's way back in the next few days as a tropical cyclone category two so we'll probably get flooded in here, the water is already starting to rise a fair bit. The money would be great at a tournament like that.

I know of many people who quite literally count down the days for this tournament to start, right from the moment that it comes to an end they start counting towards the start of it the next year all over again. That just goes to show just how popular this Aussie Millions poker tournament has grown to be. I have not yet been to one, that is a little too far out of my way, too far to travel and too much travel and accomodation costs to incur to watch a poker tournament, if i was entering it however then obviously this would be a different matter all together. I am now planning to do a little tour of my own, one of multiple countries sometime next year where i travel from country to country to attend big, well known poker events. I have been wanting to do it for quite some time, and now that i have finally completed my studies i think it will be the perfect time.
