2009 Asian Poker Tour at Macau

The Asian Poker Tour (APT) will be held at Galaxy StarWorld Hotel at Macau on the 12^th of August. CEO of Asian Poker Tour, Chris Parker, will be there to lead the event.

“The Asian Poker Tour Macau Festival will feature a side event schedule never seen in Asia before, including several new formats that will stir the curiosity of poker enthusiasts at all levels. We believe Asia’s first festival of poker will establish Macau as an essential stop on the international poker circuit,” he said.

In 2008, the APT began on the 27^th of August until only the 31^st but this year, the organizers decided to stretch it to twelve days of pure fun and excitement (August 12- August 23). The buy-in for the main event will cost $4,300 and the real action will be scheduled to kick off starting August 19^th.

Matt Savage will be the director of the final toss up on the 29^th.
