2012 AUSSIE: GOING INTO OVERTIME IN OPENING EVENT DOWN UNDER

PHOTO/SOURCE: POKERENEWS.com

We are going into overtime down under! The return of the Opening Event at the Aussie Millions attracted a stunning 946 players - down only a few players from the 1,000 player field in 2011 - and organizers were forced to extend the event by one day.

After three Day 1's and Day 2 yesterday, it was obvious that the final 10 players weren't going to settle things in the original time frame.

Scott Wilson (2011 PTPR Rank: NR) will enter final table play as chip leader, hoping to be the one to replace defending champ Martin Drewe (2011 PTPR Rank: 182nd) as 2012 winner.

Wilson holds a 1M chip lead over Brendon Rubie (2011 PTPR Rank: 1766th), who had one PTPR last season, at the WSOP.

The other notable player at the final table, Manny Stavropoulos, shares the same 2011 rank as Rubie. Stavropoulos (2011 PTPR Rank: 1766th) finished in the Top 10 at the Main Event at last season's Aussie Millions.

FINAL TABLE CHIP COUNTS:
1- Scott Wilson 2,628,000
2- Brendon Rubie 1,625,000
3- Rob Angood 1,384,000
4- Tam Truong 934,000
5- Naz Sibaei 849,000
6- Sherif Derias 696,000
7- Manny Stavropoulos 554,000
8- John Thomson 363,000
9- Sean Robey 262,000
10- Tamara Volkoff 191,000

Congratulations to Martin Drewe for capturing the opening event of the Aussie Millions. Drewe lost his chip lead (he was the chip leader heading into the second day of play) but managed to survive over 140 eliminations to finally capture the title, and the first PTPR Points of his career.

Canadian (and former November Niner) Scott Montgomery finished 8th in the event. Montgomey won his first WSOP bracelet in 2010.
