Macau's 'City Of Dreams' to Host Asian Poker Tour in November

City of Dreams, in collaboration with APT, will host The Asian Poker Tour in Macau from Saturday to Sunday, November 6 to 14, 2010. The last leg of the Asian Poker Tour for 2010 and one of the biggest events in Asian poker is set to rock Macau for nine days offering a jam-packed schedule of poker events and tournaments at City of Dreams, an integrated entertainment resort that is the newest “must experience” destination in Macau.

The festival of poker including a main event with a buy-in of HK$32,500 + HK$2,500 (approximately US$4,180 + US$320), will be staged for the first time at City of Dreams, a collaborator for the event. City of Dreams is an ideal venue for the event ever since the opening of Hard Rock Poker Lounge in June 2010, it definitely enhances the face of the Macau Poker scene and provides a sophisticated yet fun atmosphere designed with the players’ comfort in mind to attract the world’s top poker players as well as high-end bachelor parties and private events.

Mr. Jeff Mann, Chief Executive Officer of APT said he is looking forward for the success of the much-awaited event and working with City of Dreams: “We are delighted that APT Macau has a new home and in particular a new and enthusiastic collaborator: Especially Hard Rock Poker Lounge, boasts full integrated bar and lounge facilities and is perfect for private parties and special events in Macau will add a new edge to the APT Macau event. I think players are going to have a lot of fun. We are planning for a 9-day festival of poker that will include a main event that is expected to attract a record number of players from around the world; at least 10 side events, numerous satellite tournaments and other activities, and for sure it is going to be Hard Rock poker all the way.”

Last year, online poker specialist Mr. Adrien Allain from France won his seat through a US$6 online qualifier, and then went on to take HK$3M (US$389,103) first prize from a total prize pool of almost HK$10M (US$1.3M) by becoming the APT Macau 2009 Main Event Champion.

Shropshire Dad Won Qualifier at RealDealPoker.com But No Match for Evander Holyfield in Live Poker Knock-out in Leicester Square Last Night

Evander Holyfield won the celebrity “Beat the Champ” poker tournament live at Poker in the Park last night. As always, preparation paid off and Evander ‘Real Deal’ Holyfield rose to the occasion to win the special tournament held last night at Poker in the Park in London’s Leicester Square.  Thousands of poker fans attending Europe’s largest poker festival watched the game between the five-time world heavy weight champion and the Midlands father who faced him on the felt.

“It’s like fighting,” Holyfield explained before the live tournament. “If you want to win you have to prepare so I’m preparing for this tournament just like I prepare for any challenge.”

Preparation paid off for Holyfield who has been an ambassador for RealDealPoker.com, the unique online poker site that sponsored the live celebrity tournament, since he discovered the difference real cards can make to online poker.

Leif G. ("GutShotRot") won his way to the live Poker in the Park tournament by winning a series of qualifying tournaments at RealDealPoker.com – the only online poker room to deal real cards rather than computer-generated cards.

“That was amazing,” said the Ludlow, Shropshire man after going heads up with Holyfield.  “He is one intimidating opponent, that’s for sure! What a thrill! I’ll never forget this!”

Last night’s prize pool of €2300 split was split 75/25 between the winner and runner up -- but GutShotRot returns to his local with full bragging rights.
