Welcome to Day 1b of the 2014 Aussie Millions Main Event
Yesterday the 2014 Aussie Millions Main Event kicked off in a big way as 175 players turned out for the first of three starting flights. After seven 90-minute levels, the field was whittled down to 86 players with David Malka and his stack of 205,400 leading the way. Today a whole new field will pack into Crown's Poker Room for their shot at poker glory.
Due to the Super Bowl and Day 2 of the $25,000 Challenge, we expect tomorrow's Day 1c flight will be the biggest and contain the most notables. That said, there should be plenty of stiff competition in today's flight.
Action is set to kick off at 12:30 local time, which is a half an hour from now. Stay tuned as we bring you all the action and eliminations from the floor of the Crown Poker Room. In the meantime, check out this Chinese New Year video by Kristy Arnett:

Guzzardi Starts Off Right
Nível 1
: 50/100, 0 ante
Melbourne, Australia's Michael Guzzardi knows a thing or two about poker tournaments Down Under. In fact, two-thirds of his $332,012 in all-time earnings come from the Oceania region, including his largest score on record — a third-place finish in the ANZPT Melbourne Main Event back in October of 2012 for AU$112,000.
Guzzardi began his 2014 Aussie Millions Main Event by chipping up some thanks to flopping an early flush, albeit with the less-than-desirable holding of the 
.
On the 
flop, the first player checked, and then Guzzardi bet 200. His opponent called, and the turn brought the 
to pair the board. Action was checked to Guzzardi again, and this time he bet 600. His opponent called. Then, the 
completed the board on the river. After being checked to a third time, Guzzardi fired a bet of 1,550. His opponent tank-called.
Guzzardi rolled over his flush with the , and his opponent mucked his hand with a shake of the head.

Get to Know Christoph Vogelsang
Nível 1
: 50/100, 0 ante
It no secret that German's have been dominating the poker world as of late thanks to players like Fabian Quoss, Philipp Gruissem, and Ole Schemion, just to name a few. Another German player who is making a name for himself is Christoph Vogelsang.
The 28 year old, who has a Masters in Risk and Finance from the London School of Economics, hails from Germany but has lived in London for a few years. He mainly plays online high stakes heads-up cash games and has just started playing six max. Last October, Vogelsang played his first High Roller at the European Poker Tour London. He managed to make the final table of the £50,000 Super High Roller and ultimately finished in third for £383,200.
Vogelsang played the $25,000 Challenge yesterday, but was not one of the 30 players to make it through to Day 2. As a result, he's decided to take his shot in the Main Event here on Day 1b. He's obviously hoping for a deep run to the final table, but if things don't go according to plan he's already declared his intentions to play both the $100,000 Challenge and $250,000 Challenge later this week.
