- 20 events run from January 23 and wrapping up on Monday, February 10.
- Key tourneys include the $10.6k main event and the $250k super high roller.
- Satellites for the Main Event will be running at the Crown Melbourne both during and before the series starts.
Australia’s Crown Melbourne Casino unveiled Tuesday the details for one of the most anticipated series of the year: the 2014 Aussie Millions Poker Championship.
The down-under poker festival will feature 20 total tournaments, 19 “Championship Ring” side events plus its prestigious Main Event, starting on January 23 and wrapping up on February 10.
Event buy-ins range from AUD $1100 (~USD $990) to the AUD $10600 ($~9500 USD) Main Event, plus three different 2-day highroller events in the amounts of $25k, $100k, and the last tournament on the schedule, the super high roller $250,000 Challenge.
This year, every event will afford the player one re-entry, save the Main Event in which there is none and the $250k which is unlimited through the first 4 levels. Satellites for the Main Event will be running at the Crown Melbourne both during and before the series starts as Aussie Millions officials hope to top the over AUD $1.6M first place Main Event prize won last year by Mervin Chan.
The early 2014 poker calendar once again is packed with premiere events: These dates are confirmed a day after PokerStars began running online satellites for it’s annual early January event, the PCA.
