Macau Millions

The wildly successful Macau Millions, with its unique and inventive structure, has continually broken the record for the largest player field in Asia. Buy-ins are set at an extremely attractive HKD$2,200, and anyone who makes it to Day 2 is automatically in the money! Here’s how it works:

• Each Day 1 will play down to 7% of the field. Those surviving players will progress to Day 2 and are in the money for at least HKD $8,000
• Players are offered the opportunity to play as many Day 1s in order to progress to Day 2
• If you have made it to Day 2 more than once, you will play with your biggest chip stack. Your other Day 2 chip stacks will be removed from the tournament and you will be paid HKD $8,000 for each of those removed stacks.
