Dan Sing with APPT Macau Highlights

Event 11 and Event 12 coverage

Once again we are fortunate to have one of our favourite NZ poker players representing in Macau at the lastest APPT event. Dan Sing has a big following in the Auckland poker scene and he’s kindly sent back a telegram of the latest goings-on up in Macau.

Not only do we get a run down of the table action, but Dan also adds his own unique spin on things as he see’s them.


Grab a coffee and settle in, you’ll enjoy this……

After an essentially failed ANZPT Sydney effort all round I didn’t really have the desire to write up a storm so to speak. In summary it went like this

•    Made it relatively deep into day 2
•    Sucked the kumara
•    Went out with the La Vida Team
•    Got pissed
•    Pretended we won
•    Had giant mud crabs
•    Came home
•    Read bank statement
•    Gave myself an uppercut.

Anyway, despite what is basically a *spoiler alert* similar Macau session, I thought I would give you something to read and if anything some travel advice on Macau for those of you keen on venturing up here.

I was conveniently required to be in Hong Kong for a work opportunity at the same time as the APPT festival was running in Macau so I thought I would hatch a plan.

Rough exchange rate NZD 1 = HKD 5

The main event entry is HKD40,000 which is way too expensive for my liking and as I didn’t have time to play the phase satellites I decided to play the deep stack HKD1500 and the HKD10,000 HKD500K guarantee and pending result would decide whether I would fork out for the main.

The way I see it is that if you aren’t a sponsored pro and you can’t satellite in to an event you really shouldn’t be playing.
