A sterling performance by Katherine, a Ladbrokespoker.com player, who cruised into the final stages of the tournament with a 96k chip stack. Katherine is slowly becoming a recognisable face on the live poker circuit after placing 2nd in the inaugural Ladbrokespoker.com European Ladies' Championship and the 2006 World Series (the biggest and richest poker tournament in the world). Her performance at the Aussie Millions now equals her 2006 WSOP record as the top European female finisher.
'Minimilk', as she is known in poker circles because of her blonde hair and diminutive stature, was joined on her table for the last few hours of play by 2005 WSOP Aussie bracelet winner, Joe Hachem., although her poker play was a stark contrast to the drubbing England received at the hands of the Aussies in the Ashes series.

Colin Cole-Johnson, Director of eGaming said: "It makes a nice change to be part of a British sporting success story, especially after our soul-destroying 5-0 Ashes defeat. It's great that poker has played some part in beginning to restore national sporting pride. Katherine's performance alongside Murray's tennis win and England's victory over New Zealand means we can start holding our heads a little higher down under."
