Pack your bags and get ready for a poker trip of a lifetime because 888poker is giving their players a chance to travel to the Orient to try their luck at the 2009 Asian Poker Tour (APT) in Macau this August.

Macau is one of the most amazing places on the planet. It is Asia’s alternative to Las Vegas and is located on a small Island of the mainland of China. The once quiet Portuguese colony has been transformed into a Neon Frenzy that would make any Vegas die hard blush. The hotels are all fantastic and in many ways are newer, bigger and more impressive than their Vegas counterparts. The food just has to be tried to be believed and if you’re an Asian food junkie then you will have arrived at the right spot (even though there is still plenty of Western cuisine for those non adventurous types!).

There are a variety of shows, entertainment and other attractions to keep you happy when you’re off the tables but the biggest draw card is probably the shopping. If you are one of these people that likes to bring back a million presents for every family member under the sun then you have come to the right place. Hong Kong is only a 45 minute ferry ride away and the Chinese mainland awaits you only kilometres away.

All of this and I haven’t even talked about the poker. This will be one of the biggest poker tournaments ever held in this part of the world and it will be run under the watchful eye of one of the best in the business, APT Tournament Director Matt Savage.

So don’t waste any time - log on and win your package to this incredible poker destination at 888poker.
