Welcome to PokerStars.net APPT Macau High Roller Event
The HKD $100,000 (~USD $13,000) High Rollers Event is set to begin in about 30 minutes at 6 p.m. local time. As we continue to play down to a final table in the main event, we expect players to make their way over to the registration desk as they are eliminated. This should help provide a solid field for this evening's event.
Last year, the High Roller Event attracted 30 players for a prize pool of HKD $2,821,500 (~USD $363,506). It was Xiao Jia who claimed victory and the first-place prize of HK$1,129,000 (~USD $145,454).
