High-Stakes Poker Action at the Million Dollar Cash Game in Melbourne


The Million Dollar Cash Game event took place at the Crown Casino in Melbourne, Australia. The event featured high-stakes poker with notable players such as Phil Ivey, Patrik Antonius, John Juanda, Tom Dwan, and Eli Elezra.

The game started with blinds at $300/$600, but the players decided to raise them to $500/$1,000. John Juanda made an all-in move on the flop, and the word 'all-in' became the most popular at the table. Wong Kiang lost all his chips and had to play on credit.

Tom Dwan won $250,000 with J-high. The largest pot of the day was won by Patrik Antonius, who took home $435,500.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
