With satellite events available from as early as 2 August, The PokerStars Macau Millions takes place at Casino Grand Lisboa between 4-8 August. Its ‘main event’, the Macau Millions HKD $1,000,000 Guarantee is set to break a number of Asian records.
The HKD $2,200 event with a HKD $1,000,000 prize pool is “expected to be the biggest poker field ever in Asia,” according to PokerStars News. It has five Day1s with 7% of the players each day qualifying for the Day2 final and a guaranteed cash prize. In case you were eliminated during Day1, you were allowed to enter another, if there are any left.
Moreover, on 7-8 August a 2-day HKD $5,000 NLH event gets under way with a HKD $350,000 prize pool. In all, they are in for a big shot indeed: "PokerStars and Grand Lisboa have been synonymous for record-breaking poker events in Macau. The Macau Millions is going to be historic for the Asia poker community and I simply can’t wait to get things started," commented PokerStars Macau operations manager Danny McDonagh enthusiastically.
