The Ladies Take Center Stage in the APT

The beginning of the Asian Poker Tour (APT) Macau tournament week—the 7th of November—is looking more interesting as the APT introduced an additional Day 1 for players and scheduled the very popular Ladies of Poker Event.

With the success that the previous APT tournaments enjoyed and the overwhelming response they got from poker players and enthusiasts alike, the APT has made some tweaks with its schedule so as to give those with heavy work commitments the opportunity to participate in the much anticipated APT Macau Main Event—hence, the addition of another Day 1 especially for the players.

In a special event they can call their own, the women gets a chance to show off their poker prowess in a side event of the APT. For the 3rd leg in a row, the APT is offering the Ladies of Poker Event as part of the multiple side events happening in the APT Macau 2010 on November 6 to 14 next month at the Hard Rock Hotel Casino and Poker Lounge in the City of Dreams, Macau.

While there are other interesting side events like the Battle of the Nations, Greed and High Rollers events among many others, the Ladies of Poker event is exclusively for the women of the felt. The buy-in is set at HK$900+HK$100; but aside from the cash prize, surely, the ladies would want to go home as the APT queen in this leg of the tour.

The APT Macau 2010 Ladies of Poker Event is scheduled to happen on November 07 (Sunday) starting at 4PM. Last year, Ms. Aura Asilo won the APT Macau 2009 Ladies Ambassadors Event title. Earlier this year, Ms. Ghie Rivera bested a 31-woman field to take home APT Philippines 2010 Ladies of Poker trophy.
