As hard as it may be to believe, there is a place offering hotter poker action than even Las Vegas, and that poker hot spot is Macau! And just to show you how hot Macau really is Party Poker wants to send you there – for your very own Asian poker adventure!

Situated on a peninsula just 37 miles southwest of Hong Kong, Macau has become the biggest gambling destination in the world, boasting more yearly revenue than Las Vegas casinos. With the influx of casinos in Macau came a variety of poker rooms offering the hottest poker action in all of Asia. It was only natural that when the Asian Poker Tour (APT) was charting their tour map, they chose Macau as a yearly tournament locale. And when the APY makes its stop next month in Macau, Party Poker wants to send you there - for your chance to win big and be in the Poker King movie!

Win a super APT Macau prize package worth $7,000 that includes; your Main Event buy-in worth $4,300, seven nights’ accommodation at the StarWorld Hotel and Casino, starting on August 17th and $1,600 for travel and spending money. Then you will face off against top Asian poker players like David ‘Chino’ Rheem, JC Tran, Quinn Do, Steve Sung and Nam Le for a projected prize pool of $1 Million Dollars!

Join the fun in the many Party Poker qualifiers and win your way to Macau:

•    APT Sub Qualifier Speed - $8 + $1 buy-in daily at 12:05, 18:05 and 12:10 ET where 1 in 10 players will win an entry to the next APT Macau Satellite Qualifier.

•    APT Sub Qualifier Speed - $2.40 + $0.60 buy-in with Rebuys daily at 15:40, 19:10 and 22:40 ET where 1 Seat into the $80 Satellite Qualifier will be awarded for every $80 in the prize pool.

•    APT Satellite Qualifier - $75 + $5 buy-in daily at 15:55 and at 13:30 ET on Sundays where 1 in 10 players will win an entry to the next APT Macau Satellite.    
     
•    APT Satellite – Buy-in of $700 + $50 every Sunday at 15:55 ET awarding 1 in 10 players a $7,000 APT Macau package.

The Macau stop of the Asian Poker Tour takes place from August 12th through August 23rd, with the Main Event kicking off on the 19th at the StarWorld Galaxy Hotel and Casino. Last year the Main Event champ Yevgeniy Timoshenko walked away with close to half a million dollars  (HK$ 3,812,200) but this year’s winner is in line to do way better than that! Not only will the prize pool be richer, giving you more to cash win, but just by attending the APT Macau, you could be in the next big poker movie to hit theaters in Asia – The Poker King!

Throughout the entire WPT Macau event a film crew will be shooting scenes for the Chinese movie The Poker King, set in the world of tournament poker. Telling the story of two rival poker players as they do battle on the green felt for the title of World Champion, an all-star Asian cast will be on hand for filming. And since the setting is tournament poker, many players will be used as extras, with some even snagging a real role in the movie!

Don’t miss your chance to play in the APT Macau and be a movie star – thanks to Party Poker!  And pick up a free $50 - just download Party Poker and follow the instructions.
