MACAU, China, August 25 /PRNewswire/ -- The $1.5 million APT Macau offers Asia's largest ever guaranteed prize pool and runs from the 27th - 31st August at the Galaxy StarWorld Casino Resort and Hotel. Tuesday 26th August is a hectic day as the Asian Poker Tour officially hits town!
At 3.30pm, the APT Poker Room on Level 2 will be opened. This is followed at 4.30pm by book signings on level 16 by US poker legend Doyle Brunson (also on the 27th). At 7pm a special charity Celebrity Poker Challenge will take place. Proceeds go to Caritas De Macau, the social service organization of Macau.
Taking part is Manny Pacquiao, the best pound for pound boxer in the world and the first Asian boxer to win four world titles in different divisions. The charity game will also feature movie actor Michael Wong, singer Renee Dai, commentator Angie Mak and models Natalie Ng, Erica Yuen, Janice Man, Cha Cha and Wylien Chiu, Tracy Ip and Tila Tequila.
Chris Parker, CEO of the Asian Poker Tour - "We are delighted to bring the APT to Macau and really excited about offering Asia's largest ever guaranteed prize pool. The charity poker challenge will be good fun, and, most importantly, it is an aid of a brilliant charity in Caritas De Macau."
The APT Macau is a USD $5300 ($5000+$300) tournament starting on the 27th August so there is still time to sign up and play.
