Julius Colman Gives the "Shuffle Up and Deal"

Nível 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Julius Colman

Yesterday 2005 World Series of Poker Main Event champ Joe Hachem kicked off Day 1a with the traditional "shuffle up and deal," and today Julius Colman got the honors.

Colman, who played yesterday and advanced to Day 2, is a well-respected lawyer and business man, but also an accomplished poker player with nearly AU$1,000,000 in winnings. On top of it all, he is a noted philanthropist.

After making the final table of the 2007 Aussie Millions — where he ultimately finished in fourth place for AU$500,000 — he donated the entire prize to a school for significantly underprivileged children with a high migrant and refugee population.

His work with the disadvantaged children and communities was recently recognized in a unique way when the Government of Australia when he made the Australia Day Honors list. He was awarded an Order of Australia, called an A.M., and subsequently Crown Melbourne was excited to have him kick off the Day 1b festivities.

PokerNews joins the Crown in recognizing Colman for his accomplishments both on and off the felt. We'll see him again on Day 2, but for now cards are in the air here on the second starting flight of the 2015 Aussie Millions Poker Championship.

Welcome Back to the Aussie Millions Poker Championship Main Event, Day 1b

Exhibition Hall
Exhibition Hall

Wind back the clock and reset the levels for Day 1b of the Aussie Millions Poker Championship Main Event. Yesterday attracted 183 players and at least that many are expected in the Crown Poker Room today.

Ami Barer played on Day 1a and is making a good fist at defending his title as he soared through with 142,900. He looked calm, collected and had a big smile across his face all day. The same could be said for Jan Suchanek and why not? He claimed the overall lead with 163,400.

The same couldn’t be said for those who busted, including: Maria Ho, Matt Ashton, [Removed:17], Chris Moorman and former champs Oliver Speidel and Lee Nelson. In total, 97 players made it through to Wednesday's Day 2.

Once again, the plan for the day is to play seven 75-minute levels with a 15-minute break after each. There will also be a 75-minute dinner break at the end of Level 4.

Day 2 of the $100k Challenge will be playing out from 2:15PM local time across the tournament floor and live updates can be found by clicking here. We’re expecting some of the players who bust throughout the day to jump into the Main Event, we’ll keep you posted on any movements.

Cards will be in the air at 12:30. Oh, and by the way, happy Australia Day!
