MPCC - Main Event Weekend

Hi guys, I'll be in Macau this weekend for the Macau Poker Cup Championship Main Event. The event has a $20k buy-in and a guaranteed pot of $2m. I'm guessing there'll be over 150 players or so. I'm traveling to Macau tomorrow (Friday) on the 5pm ferry and I should get to Grand Lisboa Hotel by 6:30pm. I have a room there for two nights, hopefully I can be checked into my room before 7pm. After that I'll be headed to the View Lounge over at Sands Casino where the World Gaming Magazine will be having its launch party. The View Lounge is supposed to be reserved for VIP and highrollers only, and it's supposed to be pretty sick. I'll write about it after the party.

Depending how late the night gets, I might sleep in on Saturday before the Main Event. I like to have a room service brunch before a tournament so I could stay clear of people and keep a clear head. The game starts at 12:30pm and it has a starting stack of 20k which is 400BB. The structure looks super deep (at least at the beginning levels) so I'm definitely gonna start very slow. I write more after Day 1 and I'll be tweeting throughout the day. Please check!

I'll probably write a short one tomorrow night after the party. Latez!
