Record Field Expected
Nível 4
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
With 32 entries already generated in the 2014 Aussie Millions AU$100,000 Challenge, expectations are that this year's field will break the previous record of 38 from 2011 when Sam Trickett won. The tournament staff announced that several more players are expected to show up and participate, including Igor Kurganov, Patrik Antonius, Gus Hansen, and John Juanda.
You also have to factor in Jason Mercier, Sorel Mizzi, Scott Seiver, Jeff Rossiter, and Erik Seidel as late entries. All five of those players are still currently in the Main Event with 18 players remaining.
As Crown's Media Relations Manager Natasha Stipanov put it, "We're just doing what we can."
