When four individuals turned up to contend in the 2018 Aussie Millions AUD 50,000, while the remainder of the people scurried around the rail like questionable looking shrews, I assumed the Aussie Many millions High-stakes gambler scene looked as delicious as an overdrawn checking account.
Oh, what a difference a year makes.
151-entrants drizzled down on the AUD 25,000 Challenge like confetti at a wedding event, as well as Rainer Kempe beat Toby Lewis to win the title after both cut a deal and also moved all-in blind.

It had not been Li’s day.
The only Australian not only make Day 3, he or she also got it in good on the turn with two pair hand against the one pair hand of Toby Lewis only for the man from the UK to river a much better 2 pair hand to send him to the imprison fifth place.
