2008 PokerNews Cup Australia Championships - Event 4

[user38449]

While expected to be a small affair -- like one or two tables small -- the $10,000 High Stakes H.O.R.S.E. event will likely attract some of the best all-around poker players in Australia when action gets underway at 12:30 p.m. this afternoon.

Last year's big buy-in event was the $10,000 Australian Bad Boys of Poker Invitational, an invite only tournament that featured the likes of Jeff Lisandro, Tony G, Mark Vos, Emad Tahtouh, Lee Nelson, Sam Khouiss, Billy 'The Croc' Argyros, Arul Thillai, David Saab and eventual winner Gary Benson.

This time around, PokerNews is spreading the love to the 'good boys' of poker as well, having opened the doors to the tournament for anyone willing to pony up the buy-in. Oh, and don't forget... today we're playing H.O.R.S.E., not hold'em. Borrowing a line from everyone's favorite mouth, "The kiddie game is down the street."

Our coverage will begin promptly at 12:30 p.m. See you then!
