Rory Young finished eighth in the $25,000 Challenge earlier in the Aussie Millions festival and is now going well in the Main Event as we approach the money bubble. We asked him what the Aussie Millions as a festival means to him as an Australian.
"It's incredible how much it brings the Australian poker community together," said Young. "Everyone gets really excited for the whole month. There are so many recreational players within the Australian poker community, and it's really nice to see some of them do well.
"Everyone is really close friends; there's always someone who has a big break-out year, and it's great for the young regs who do have that break-out score because it really boosts their careers.
"It's always nice to see our Australian friends from overseas 'come home', so to speak. It's been an awesome series so far."
Anthony Hachem raised to 9,000 in the cutoff and picked up a single caller in Rory Young out of the small blind. Both players opted to check the flop and Young check-called a bet of 8,000 on the
turn. Young checked the
river once more and called a bet worth 8,000 to muck when Hachem showed
for a pair of nines.
