hoping to visit macau in a few days time, does anybody now if its a decent place to play poker? Do all the big casinos there have poker rooms? What's the general standard like and how much are the buy ins.

If anyone has every played in macau it'd be great to hear what it's like

cheers

I stayed and played the equivalent of $1/2 in The Wynn and it was totally the opposite to what I expected - it was really, really tight.

I thought there would be more locals/Chinese, but most of the punters are tourists as mainland Chinese can only enter Macau like 6 times a year or something and it's mostly unaffordable for the locals.

I popped across the road to Casino Lisboa and they had a fair sized room which was pretty quiet even though there were lots of players in town for the APT (be sure to take a tour of the second floor around the fruit shop...very interesting! You can YouTube it).

Disappointing to say the least.

cheers twaddles,

this is my impression from what i've heard that for poker it's really not a great place

were there any single table or multi table open tournaments going on when you were there?

There were STTs and MTTs but think they were only for the APT main event.

Agree with twaddles and many places like Venetiian didnt even have any games at all / going.

Bets bets are Wynn / Lisboa but stick to Sick Bo IMHO
