- What is the Aussie Millions poker tournament?
- The Aussie Millions, known officially as the Crown Australian Poker Championship, has become the biggest poker event in the Southern Hemisphere. Held at the Crown Casino in Melbourne, Australia, the event draws players from all over the world. In 2005, the prize pool grew to more than $2.6 million. We are providing some opportunities for you to represent PokerStars at the main event in Australia (January 15-19).
- How old do I have to be to participate?
- You must be 18 years of age to play in the PokerStars satellites to the Aussie Millions event or the Aussie Millions event itself.
- Can I purchase an Aussie Millions seat with W$?
- Yes - if you are one of our most loyal players. That means that you have at least 10,000 lifetime Frequent Player Points. If you think you might qualify for this, please send email to support@pokerstars.com and ask them how many lifetime FPPs you have. If you meet this criterion, then you may purchase the Aussie Millions seat for W$7,700. Otherwise, you will have to win your way into the Aussie Millons via a PokerStars satellite. You may use your W$ and T$ to buy into our Aussie Millions satellites.

- You must play the first Aussie Millions seat you win. If you are lucky enough to win additional seats, your PokerStars account will be credited with W$8,700. Please see our Terms and Conditions page for complete details.
- Can I buy into preliminary events at the Aussie Millions with W$?
- No. This promotion is for the final Aussie Millions event only.
- I won! What do I do now?
- PokerStars will buy you into the Aussie Millions final event. You will have to provide identification at the Aussie Millions event when you arrive.
- Will I be required to wear PokerStars gear during the Aussie Millions event?
- Yes. In exchange for us providing this opportunity to get into the Aussie Millions event, you are agreeing to represent PokerStars at the Aussie Millions. Whether you win a Aussie Millions satellite on PokerStars or buy in with W$, you will have to wear PokerStars clothing throughout the event. We will provide you with the clothing and hope you'll wear it with pride.
