Winners Are Grinners - 22nd December 2008

With 555 entrants and well over 1,600 rebuys, the Free-to-Enter Mega Satellite saw three $10,500 Aussie Millions Main Event seats up for grabs.

To win a seat into the Main Event via the Free-to-Enter Mega Satellite is a players dream that became a reality for just a few. As the clock ticked past 9.30pm the bubble finally burst and the three winners (pictured L-R Declan Murphy, Shy Jachimowicz and Alf Frommer) rejoiced with hugs and hi-fives.

Later in the evening four more names were added to the Main Event entry list with the completion of the Saturday Night $550 direct entry Satellite. With 94 entrants, many of whom came through the daily satellites, four Main Event seats were awarded as well as three $1,650 Feature Event seats. The Main Event winners were Sherif Derias, Brett Daphne, Tim English and Paul Obrien.

With four more coming through from the Thursday Night Rebuy Satellite, and the whopping 25 during Aussie Millions Warm Up Week, this now brings a total of 40 Main Event Seats awarded in December, with more still to come. (Credit: Crown Poker)
