»Australian Poker Tour Hosts Successful Brisbane Series
The live poker scene in many parts of Australia is almost non-existent. Since the coronavirus pandemic originally forced the closure of everything from pubs to casinos in March 2020, the reopening process has been slow and measured. And most of it excluded poker.
The Australian Poker Tour was one of the poker tours determined to resume its live tournaments in 2020. And it did just that in Brisbane.
Excluding PokerAs restaurants and bars, casinos and clubs reopened in the previous months, provincial governments largely continued to prohibit poker. The nature of the game – players close to each other at the tables, exchanging cards and chips with each other – made establishments and governments alike worried about virus spread at poker tables.
New South Wales has been outspoken about poker, trying to allow it under very limited circumstances but then putting another stop to it in the past months.
The Australian Poker Tour was a part of a coalition to work with the NSW government and health officials to find a way to authorize live poker again. The group – Poker NSW – is still moving slowly but steadily toward a comprehensive plan for live tournament poker that makes players and officials feel safe.
Along the way, as officials authorized then cancelled and then reauthorized poker tournaments, the Australian Poker Tour was caught up in it all. In Queensland, the APT planned its Gold Coast series for the first weekend in September but had to cancel as a new wave of Covid-19 cases surfaced.
APT Brisbane or BustThe APT had to let its Gold Coast series go to the pile of cancelled events, but it was determined host its APT Brisbane series in October. They set it for October 7-11 with 14 tournaments and the hope of prize pools to culminate in the $450K range.
Eatons Hill Hotel was the location, slightly north of Brisbane. They set it up with everything from abundant hand sanitizer, masks on sale and available for free, and overall cleanliness protocols in place.
Brisbane Casino Poker Tournaments Vegas WorldThe Australian Poker Tour not only did it but exceeded attendance and expectations.
4,555 total tournament entries
972 unique players
$749,405 total prize pools
'Hosting a tournament series in these troublesome times has certainly been a challenge, yet through perseverance and effort, we got there to finish off the year on a high note,' Milo of the APT wrote on the website.
Players Back in ActionThe APT kicked off on October 7 with the Opening Event, a $100 buy-in No Limit Hold'em tournament with two starting flights and one reentry allowed per flight. Organizers hoped to garner a prize pool of $15K. But when the players lined up to compete, these were the actual numbers:
Total entries: 422 (243 in Flight A, 189 in Flight B)
Total prize pool: $33,985
Players paid: 43 (minimum payout = $150)
Winner: Kiale Matthews ($8,510)
The rest of the series played out in similar fashion, with attendance and prize pools exceeding estimates.
Event 2: $80 NLHE Short Deck = 118 entries, $7,755 prize pool ($4K estimated), Rickie Hughes won for $2,290
Event 3: $80 NLHE Deepstack Freezeout = 231 entries, $14,170 prize pool ($7,500 estimated), Mahana Ford won for $3,820
Event 4: $1K NLHE Players Championship = 114 entries, $91,960 prize pool ($50K estimated), Jesse Stanley won for $27K
Event 6: $80 NLHE 6-Max Shootout = 154 entries, $10,145 prize pool ($5K estimated), Darren Sloane won for $2,500
Event 7: $1,200 NLHE Grind = 154 entries, $153,520 prize pool ($75K estimated), Daniel O'Shea won for $40K
Event 8: $100 NLHE Big Bounty = 174 entries, $13,955 prize pool ($7K estimated), Jack Irwin won for $1,800
Event 9: $350 NLHE Teams = 36 teams, $10,180 prize pool ($10K estimated), Colombo-Australians won for $2,800
Event 10: $100 NLHE = 290 entries, $23,320 prize pool ($10K estimated), Kane Peters won for $5,500
Event 11: $550 NLHE 6-Max Shot Clock = 103 entries, $48,830 prize pool ($25K estimated), Antoine Follet won for $14,580
Event 12: $330 NLHE High Roller = $363 entries, $103,360 prize pool ($45K estimated), Aiden Hildebrandt won for $27K
Events 13, 14, and 15 did not appear on the website.
Finale ResultsAs for Event 5, it was the Main Event, requiring a $200 buy-in and offering four starting flights starting on October 8. Reentries were allowed, and the hope was that the event would accumulate a $100K prize pool. Of course, this tournament exceeded expectations, too.
Total entries: 802 (138 in Flight A, 199 in Flight B, 169 in Flight C, 296 in Flight D)
Total prize pool: $133,250
Players paid: 80 (minimum payout = $400)
Winner: Jordan Bromley ($32K)
When the series concluded, the APT tallied the results from all of the events and declared Kiale Matthews the APT 2020 Brisbane Series 2 Player of the Series. He won $10K for accumulating 1,545 points over the course of the five days. Corey Van J took second place for $7K with 1,440 points. Jesse Stanley took third for $4K, Daniel O'Shea took fourth for $2K, and Brenton Buttigieg won $1K for finishing fifth.
What's Next?In a time of a pandemic, during which new waves may appear at any time and increase dangers, it is difficult to predict anything. However, the APT is thinking positively.
First of all, the APT CEO David Miles clarified that he delayed the Season 3 Player of the Year competition due to so many cancelled tournaments and health concerns keeping others from attending the most recent event. So, all players who qualified with points on that leaderboard will carry over into next year. The 2021 Player of the Year Competition will offer more events by which to qualify, and all 2020 and 2021 qualifying players will be up to win shares of the $50K award money.
Speaking of 2021, the next event will kick off APT Season 4 in Brisbane. There will be six days of poker tournaments – the largest series in the APT's history – set to go live from January 19-24, 2021.

»APT Brisbane Awards $1.5M in First Series of 2021
The Australian Poker Tour had quite enough of 2020. The coronavirus pandemic forced the tour operator to cancel most of its events last year, so they invited players to Brisbane for the first stop of 2021. They hoped to show good results to start the new year.
And they did.
Brisbane a Player FavoriteThe APT is no stranger to Brisbane, and the players appreciate it. Players had gathered at the Eatons Hill Hotel in Brisbane in the past for live tournament series, friendly but serious poker events that offered something for everyone, even a leaderboard contest.
When the APT wanted to try out a live series in the second half of 2020, it did so at that exact location. Both the tour and the venue took extreme precautions to protect players and staff for an APT Brisbane series in October. They did it and succeeded.
4,555 total tournament entries
972 unique players
$749,405 total prize money awarded
The Main Event alone drew 802 entries over four starting flights for a $133,250 prize pool. And in the end, Jordan Bromley won that Main Event for $32K.

So, the first logical stop for 2021 was APT Brisbane. They set it for January 19-24 at Eatons Hill Hotel. And with high hopes, they set the estimated prize pools to hit $1M over the course of the 24 events.
Big Numbers, Big Start to Comeback YearAustralians have done more than most countries to restrict the Covid-19 virus and reduce its spread. And it minimized the damage. While there were 28,824 cases in 2020 and through January 2021, there were 909 deaths – far too many but quite low compared to many other nations.
Brisbane Casino Poker TournamentsIn addition, the trend for positive Covid-19 cases in Australia has been on a downward slop since August 5. There was a bit of a jump around the end-of-year holidays, but the Aussies have kept the numbers down.
APT organizers went to the Brisbane event in January with confidence. The tour had shown itself to be safe in October 2020, and the decline in cases was likely to bring more players to the tables. In addition, midway through the series, the Australian government lifted the mask mandate.
The final numbers for APT Brisbane 2021 were solid:

6,546 total entries
$1,537,420 total prize money awarded

APT Brisbane Player of the SeriesThis challenge is a potentially lucrative payoff for those who play a lot (or all) of the events and do well.
There are four tiers of tournaments in which to earn points, with events like the Main Event and Goliath awarding the most points and tournaments like the Pineapple and Short Deck awarding the least. The only events not included are the team events and the Ladies Championship. All cashes in all events earn points, though. And players are even awarded some base points simply for registering to play. Details are on the APT website.
In the end, Jonathan Kururangi won the APT Brisbane Player of the Series honors for $12,500. The full top-five leaderboard was:
1st place: Jonathan Kururangi with 2,130 points ($12,500)
2nd place: Michael Maddocks with 1,830 points ($6,000)
3rd place: Josh Norvock with 1,820 points ($4,000)
4th place: Michael Henderson with 1,440 points ($3,000)
5th place: Daniel Gabriel and Jai Pillar with 1,360 points each ($1,575 each)
Just Getting StartedThe APT should take a little time to celebrate the grand turnout for the Brisbane series, but there is some work to do to prepare for the next one.

The APT Gold Coast is set for March 17-21 at Southport Sharks. There are 21 events scheduled over the course of the five days, and the APT is estimating it will award about $900K for the series. Keep in mind, however, that the APT Brisbane massively surpassed its estimate.
The APT Gold Coast Main Event will require $200 to play and offer four starting flights to get in on the action. The final day will play to a winner on Sunday, March 21.
