The Aussie Millions is listed in the PS client as having a buy-in of 9,503 USD. However, at current exchange rates the value of the 10,600 AUD seat is only 8,616 USD. I just emailed PS support to ask them when and how will Pokerstars issue a refund for the approximately 887 USD difference between the actual price of the seat and the price that is being charged to satellite winners. Anyone know what they did last year about this problem?

They told me that the guy at Pokerstars who is in charge of this issue is aware of the problem. They said they will send me an answer, but it might take awhile because it is the holidays.

Really looking forward to it ! It's a shame though, so many exciting stuff in Melbourne at the very same time with the Tennis Open, the Rainbow Serpent festival...

Want to make a (1k?) bet with someone for Cashes/FT's/Profit or something in MTT's over the trip. Either heads-up or a group of people.

Dear Aussie Millions Main Event Qualifier,

Given the extraordinary drop in the AUD dollar, there will very likely be an adjustment in your favour to the value of the main event package or seat you have won.

Once we have sent AUD funds to the venue and have accounted for all transaction costs, I will email you again with the final amount.

They'll do it soon enough I guess.

For holdem, lots of tables of 1-3 to 5-5 then 1 table of 5/10/20. Don't know exact rake, but its def low enough to play in 5-5+

I think they usually play HS PLO an mixed games when its going on. Maybe 50/100 plo or something?

Anyone know if the prelim events have dinner breaks, and if so when/how long? The structure sheets don't say anything about them.

They wouldnt. Crown prelim events/most events never have dinner breaks on day 1's, so if they did it would be a really big surprise

Did everyone end up getting a satisfactory refund due to currency fluctuations? Satellites for next year's aussie millions are running and currently there is about a 10% difference between the USD buy in via the client and the actual buy in
