Live poker is thriving in Australia, especially at the Poker Palace in Sydney's Club Marconi which hosted the Poker Palace Summer Championships over the past three weeks. The fast-growing poker room already estimated prize pools of AU$800,000 combined throughout the festival — at least double the amount of previous festivals — but even those lofty expectations were easily surpassed as a whopping AU$1,375,440 in total prize money was awarded. It's a testament to the hard work of the hosts who have worked around the clock to ensure a top-notch poker festival.
