Tom Dwan seemed to be having the most fun being in the spotlight during the production, regardless of his results. He was unsuccessful in convincing the Malaysian businessmen to return for day two.
Play started at $400/$800 with a $1000 button ante in the Mahogany room of the Crown Casino.
Towards the end of play David Oppenheim won one $370k pot against Patrik Antonius, and quickly followed it up with another massive $350k pot against Sam Trickett.
On the down side, Justin "Boosted J" Smith and Erik Cajelais each lost two $100K buy-ins and called it quits.
Phil Ivey stopped by for only a little less than an hour.
On day one, Patrik Antonius had destroyed the prop bets between the players coming out with a $275k win. On day two, Antonius argued that if the amounts were too small, he would rather not have them at all to distract him from playing.
Ivey and Antonius will focus their energies with big stacks heading into Day 2 of the Aussie Millions main event, while many of the other players will focus on the heads up event on Tuesday.
