That's a Wrap; What Can We Say But "Josh-Kosh-Be-Gosh-Tekesky!"

Another marathon day here at the Crown Casino Poker Room and once again we were treated to some world-class poker, this time in the short-handed format that is known to all as "six-max".
225 players took to the felt for the 2011 Aussie Millions $2,200 Six Handed No Limit Hold'em event and it was a horror start for the Full Tilt Poker contingent. Red Pros Annette Obrestad, Scott Montgomery, Jonathan Karamalikis, Simon Watt, Matt Jarvis and James Akenhead were all amongst today's tournament obituaries, as well as past Aussie Millions champions Lee Nelson and Tyron Krost, just to name a few.
Of course, for those who fall, there are also those who are able to endure. Jim Sachinidis, Kyle Cheong, Mike Watson, Peter Sheary, Michel Bouskila and Alexander Debus have already cashed in, but we've still got 18 players coming back tomorrow to battle it out for the title, led by Josh Tekesky, who tops the counts with 237,600.
Stuart-McLeod Smith (228,500) is not that far behind, nor is Ben Vinson (215,100). Tony Dunst (153,300) and the affable Waki Waki (152,300) round off the top five.
Full Tilt Red Pro Billy "The Croc" Argyros (126,800) will also be coming back tomorrow, along with Ben Delaney (141,000), Andrew Jeffreys (102,500) and Leo "The Mechanic" Boxell, who's one of the short stacks with 38,700. In what he hopes will bring him good fortune, he's even sealed up his toy wombat Wally inside his chip bag!
No matter what it takes, it's going to take that special something to take down this title, as any one of these 18 players are worthy winners. Here's how they'll line up when they come back at 2pm AEDT tomorrow:
