A total of 629 players entered the Main Event

Day 2 of the Aussie Millions Main Event is underway, and Australian poker fans will be disappointed to hear that Joe Hachem has gone bust at the felt in the Crown Melbourne.

And there's more bad news for Aussie poker enthusiasts, as Hachem isn't the only one of their compatriots that has hit the rail - Julius Colman has also been busted as play begins to heat up.

However, there is still a strong cause for hope, as at the time of writing Australia's very own James Obst is leading the field, holding on to the highest stack with 670,000 chips.

What's more, with Jonathan Karamilikis and Aaron Lim also looking good, there is still a possibility that an Aussie will pick up the Main Event title for the second consecutive year following Oliver Speidel's triumph in 2012.

But with the likes of Phil Ivey steadily accumulating impressive stacks, the road to victory is going to be a tough one.
