• The first champion of the Star Poker Summer Series has also been decided after the $500 buy-in Late Night Poker No Limit Hold’em event has run and won last night.
Tolly Sakellariou added a second Star Poker title (he won the High Roller event at the 2009 Sydney Champs) after taking out the $4500 first prize. Tony Daoud ($2700) and Stefan Post ($1800) filled the minor placings in the field of 20 players.
It’s a huge weekend of poker at The Star – in addition to day two of the Opening Event, with the final table scheduled for Sunday, there will be a $550 Summer Series Mega Satellite from 6.30pm also on Sunday.
The PMA live reporting team will also be on site on Sunday for the third running of the $1100 PokerMedia Australia No Limit Hold’em Special from 12.30pm. Players will start with a stack of 15,000 in chips and levels of 40 minutes.
