Aussie Millions Satellite in October

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Mansion Poker and PokerNews.com have just announced a special once-off Team PokerNews Aussie Millions satellite which is scheduled for Sunday October 15 at 01:00 GMT. The buyin for the tournament will be $100+$9. In addition to being paid out as a normal cash tournament, Mansion Poker will add $3,000 to the prizepool.

The winner will receive an added bonus from Mansion Poker in the form of a $12,000 Team PokerNews Aussie Millions package. This package includes entry to the 2007 Aussie Millions Main Event (value $10,500) at Crown Casino next January, a tournament which is expected to have a prizepool of over AUD$5,000,000. The package also includes ten nights accommodation at the Crown Promenade Hotel, and approximately USD$2,800 for travel and expenses.

The winner will also get to be a part of Team PokerNews, and will receive additional benefits such as exclusive Team PokerNews gear, invites to team functions, and also the chance to mingle with Team PokerNews professional players such as Tony G, Noah Boeken and Patrik Antonius.

With the extra cash and Aussie Millions package, this means that Mansion Poker is generously adding around $15,000 to the prizepool, which makes it excellent value for players.

This tournament is now open for registration and is in the lobby under 'PokerNews Aussie Millions'.
