The Buzz

The atmosphere here at SKYCITY is unbelieveable. There are hundreds of spectators on the rail watching both the Main Event final table and the High Rollers' event final table. The two tables are right next to one another in the poker room and right along the rail.

Over in the High Rollers' event, Carter Gill is heads up with Michael Wong. Shaun Gray from New Zealand came in third place, earning NZD $33,320. Gill has just recently lost the chip lead to Wong and Wong has him at 2:1.

Along with these two events going on, the Teams' event is also being played which has it's own set of spectators. The place is really buzzing and New Zealand's poker scene is definitely alive and well here at SKYCITY.
