PokerStars ready for Macau return
30 Dec 2010
The special events calendar for 2011 will feature the Macau Poker Cup (MPC) series (February 21-28); the Macau Poker Cup Championship (October 7-16); the Macau Millions from April 2-10; and the annual Asia-Pacific Poker Tour Macau, which is set to return in November.
There will be a number of changes, expected to generate bigger and richer events. The long-running Red Dragon Main Event will have a slightly larger buy-in (HKD$11,000), a larger starting stack of 15,000 chips, and, most notably, a guaranteed prize pool of HKD$3,000,000.
The MPC has also seen its schedule expanded from five to seven days in order to accommodate the growing popularity of the series. The week will feature six events, including a special Charity Event with HKD $50,000 in added prizes.
