Since its inception in 1998, the Aussie Millions has become one of the largest poker events in the world.  In fact, the Aussie Millions Main Event is known as the biggest poker tournament in the Southern Hemisphere!  That’s because a whopping $6,810,000 was in the Main Event prize pool last year with Australian Stewart Scott taking the largest share of it at $2,000,000.  

What’s great about the Aussie Millions is that it grows every year so many are expecting even more money in the 2010 Main Event prize pool!  And it is predicted that the winner of the Main Event will take home $2,500,000.  With the amount of money that will be involved in the 2010 Aussie Millions, it’s enough to make one want to grab $10,500 AUD and fly to Australia to play!  

Of course not everyone has this kind of money lying around and the flight and hotel expenses don’t help matters much either.  Fortunately, those who want to play in the huge Aussie Millions Main Event can get in for much cheaper if they decide to go through SportsBook Poker.  That’s because SportsBook Poker is giving people the opportunity to win their way to Melbourne, Australia through $13,000 USD prize packages.

The $13k prize packages include pretty much everything you’d need at the Aussie Millions Main Event poker tournament including a 10 night stay at the Crown Promenade Hotel (January 22nd to February 1st), entry into a $50,000 Aussie Millions Freeroll, $1,500 for travel expenses, $10,500 AUD for the Main Event entry fee, and 2 parties including the Aussie Millions Welcome Party and the Aussie Millions Farewell Party.  The Main Event starts on January 24th so you’ll want to earn you prize package as quickly as possible.
