Ben Tollerene Leads 2016 Aussie Millions $100,000 Challenge



After a 4-day hiatus, the 2016 Aussie Millions Poker Championship $100,000 Challenge get back underway today at 2:10 pm (3 hours from now). The live stream and our live coverage (including hole cards) will be on an half hour delay. The tournament started on Sunday the 24th of January and had its second day of play on Monday the 25th, but for the players to have the option to play the Main Event, the final table was on hold for four days.

The 41 entry strong field (30 unique + 11 reentries) is down to it final 6 players. The $4,018,000 prize pool will be entirely divided today, with the eventual winner taking home AU$1,446,480 (just over $1 million).

The player best position to make a run at the top prize is online pro Ben "Ben86" Tollerene, who leads the final six with a stack of 1.522 million. Tollerene, who has amassed millions online, is guaranteed the largest live score of his career no matter where he finished.

Others still in contention for the title are Connor Drinan, Fabian Quoss, Sam Greenwood, Fedor Holz, and Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier.

The PokerNews Live Reporting Team will be on hand to capture all the action, which will also be live streamed on Jason Somerville's runitup.tv.
