PokerStars.com is launching its exciting new live poker room at the Gran Lisboa Casino tomorrow, Mar. 19.
PokerStars Macau will be the largest poker room in continental Asia, featuring 24-hour cash games, weekly tournaments, the annual Asia Pacific Poker Tour, and freeroll tournaments.
The opening coincides with the return of the Macau Poker Cup, known for its HKD 10,000 buy-in Red Dragon event, which for the first time will see a guaranteed minimum prize pool of HKD 500,000. Other events include a HKD 1,000 buy-in charity tournament, with donations going to Caritas Macau.
Team PokerStars Pro, Joe Hachem said, “PokerStars is committed to the development of poker across Asia, and this new room will be its heart. It has been extraordinary for me to watch the growth of poker culture in the eighteen months since the PokerStars.net Asia Pacific Poker Tour first brought poker to Macau, and I’m so excited about playing in my third APPT there in August.”
Players can register or qualify for any of the events online or live at the poker room itself.
