Australian Vincent Huang secured the biggest payday of his poker career so far with victory in Event #8: AU$1,150 Accumulator for AU$139,070 and his second ANTON Championship Ring.

Following a heads-up deal, Huang defeated an 857-player field and battled from a chip deficit to beat opponent Toby Joyce heads-up to add another ring to the one he won in the 2018 Aussie Millions Tournament of Champions.

*denotes heads-up deal

Coming into the final table as the short-stack, Anthony Marenko was the first elimination. He takes home AU$15,815 in his first Aussie Millions cash since cashing the Main Event back in 2012.

Dutch player Joep Raemaekers added a second cash of this year's Aussie Millions, finishing eighth for AU$18,890 before Australian Martin 'The Doc' Comer added the sixth of his career earning AU$21,965 for his efforts despite coming into the day second in chips.

Luke Martinelli has two second-place finishes in Aussie Millions side events before, but wouldn't be adding to it today finishing sixth for AU$27,585.

Start-of-day chip leader Joyce still lead five-handed, with Bjorn Ostby the short stack. He would bust next for AU$35,140.

Indian Jayan Prasad cashed in fourth for the best cash of his career, winning AU$52,710. Prasad cashed in the Opening Event at this year's Aussie Millions and now has a second cash in the southern hemisphere's most prestigious poker tournament.

Another player who cashed in the Opening Event earlier this festival was Joshua Abady who was next to go, winning AU$70,280 for the best cash of his career. This eclipsed a 33rd place in last year's Main Event for which he earned himself AU$35,000.

Heads-up a deal was done between start-of-day chip leader Toby Joyce and Vincent Huang which saw Joyce take home the lion's share of the prize pool. But eventually it as Huang who took down the tournament, the prize money and the coveted ANTON Championship ring.

Hata's Set is Not Enough

Nível 6 : 250/500, 75 ante
Aymon Hata in the A$25,000 Challenge
Aymon Hata in the A$25,000 Challenge

Michael Gathy raised in late position and picked up two callers including Karl Symonds from one seat over. Aymon Hata then three-bet all in for 15,025 and big stack Gathy was the only caller.

Aymon Hata: {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}
Michael Gathy: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

Hata was behind and in need of help, which he immediately found on the {K-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Spades} flop. Nothing much changed on the {A-Diamonds} turn, but the {9-Spades} river improved Gathy to the higher set and sent Hata to the rail in the penultimate level of Day 1a.

A total of 165 players entered the 2019 Aussie Millions Main Event on Day 1a, and after seven levels it is Frenchman Paul-Francois Tedeschi who leads the 79 advancing to Day 2.

Tedeschi rose up the chip counts shortly after the dinner break, including one hand involving a lengthy river tank against Eui Kim. Kim had bet pot on a paired board and Tedeschi had the clock called on him, before eventually calling with a slightly bigger full house than his opponent.

Tedeschi will take 195,400 through to Day 2, with Dingxiang Ong (186,000), Pierce McKellar (170,100) and Quan Zhou (168,600) close behind.

Both Ong and McKellar have final tables to their name at the 2019 Aussie Millions, with Ong finishing third in the Six Max and McKellar finishing fifth in the Opening Event.

Other notables advancing include former Main Event champion David Gorr (51,200), Australian bracelet-winner Jackie Glazier (84,800) and 2019 8 Game champion Michael Gathy (101,200), Vojtech Ruzicka (125,500), Mel Judah (48,200), Benny Glaser (56,200), Anthony Hachem (62,100), Ajay Chabra (92,400), 2018 WSOP Main Event final tablist Michael Dyer (86,200), Alex Lee (79,800) and Dzmitry Urbanovich (76,300).

Day Recap

Toby Lewis was on hand to administer the traditional 'Shuffle Up and Deal' to kick off the first of three Main Event starting flights, and it wasn't long until the first eliminations began, with Antonio Casale, Michael Moore, Jessica Ngu, Kenny Hallaert, Graeme Putt and last year's final tablist Johan Schumacher all gone before the first break of the day.

By then it was Jeremy Pekarek who had surged into a chip lead with over 140,000 after a string of eliminations. Former Main Event champion Ari Engel was also eliminated midway through the day, running jack-ten suited into the pocket kings of Heidi May.

Sorel Mizzi, Marc Macdonnell and Najeem Ajez were among the big names to go next, before another Main Event champion Manny Stavropoulos also hit the rail after getting it in straight over straight.

After the dinner break Quan Zhou joined Pekarek as a tournament big stack, with Fabian Gumz. Jerry Wong and Aymon Hata heading to the exit.

As the tournament entered its last level, Heidi May became the latest big name to be eliminated. She flopped top pair with ace-king against the pocket jacks of Luc Meritan, but her French opponent rivered a jack to stay alive, with May left short and busting a short while later.

Dzmitry Urbanovich moved up the chip counts late on, and Dingxiang Ong missed out on the overnight chip lead by a whisker as Tedeschi led the 82 players advancing to Day 2.

Stay tuned to PokerNews for continued coverage of the Aussie Millions Main Event and the AU$50,000 Challenge, with the AU$100,000 Challenge and AU$25,000 Pot Limit Omaha still to come!
