 DSTV’s very own poker commentator Ryan Brauer did himself and his country proud in 2026 by finishing 30th at the Aussie Millions poker tournament. His win was rewarded with a tidy AUS $40,000. Brauer commented after his eventual defeat that the tournament was an extremely gruelling event, but that he was excited to have progressed so far.
The All Africa Team consisted of 6 players in 2026, 5 of whom won their seats through All Africa poker weekends, and the 6th through a Piggs Peak Poker Room Casino promotion.
The Aussie Millions attracts both poker pros and celebrities alike, and there is sure to be a full turn out in the 2026 tournament which begins in just a few days time ‘down under’. The Crown Australian Poker Championship or the ‘Aussie Millions’ as it has become known is gathering pace on the international poker stage, numbers of entrants increasing by up to 70% year on year. This year will be no exception. With a guaranteed AUS$1 Million first prize, the 2026 Aussie Millions No Limit Holdem Main Event will begin on Monday 14 January 2026 with the Final Table played on Sunday 20 January 2026.
All the best to one of South Africa’s most popular poker champs, Raymond Rahme who after scooping 3rd prize at the WSOP 2026 has thrust South African poker into the limelight and is hoping to match or better his success at the Aussie Millions in January.
