In addition, Phase 1 and Phase 2 satellites will be available daily starting from Monday, May 3 – the official starting day of the APPT Macau series of tournaments.
The APPT Macau main event will be held from May 18 to 23. Buy-in is set at HK $40,000, which is approximately US $5,160. The schedule calls from three Day 1 flights, followed by Day 2, Day 3, and the final table day.
