Bodog Running Qualifers for APT Macau

Bodog Poker is always thinking of ways to get their players to some of the best live events around the world.  They have sent their players to exotic locations to play poker, most recently to the World Series of Poker and now they are offering thier players the chance to go to Macau stop in the Asian Poker Tour.

The Asian Poker Tour event in Macau is being held from August 26th through August 31st with a guaranteed $1.5 million dollars in prize money.  Bodog Poker is now running freeroll qualifier tournaments where the winner will receive their entry into the APT Macau event plus an all expense paid trip to the Pearl River Delta in China.

The freeroll tournaments will play four times a day throughout July and the top 25 finishers per qualifier will advance to the APT Macau Seat Giveaway Finale on Saturday, August 2nd.  The top prize will be the $8,000 dollar prize package that covers your $5,300 dollar buyin, airfare, six nights at the Galaxy StarWorld Hotel and Casino and spending money.

"With the World Series in Las Vegas all but over, it is time for online poker players to head east—the Far East that is—for a shot at scoring big, and Bodog Poker is excited to give players the chance to win their way into this major tournament without spending a dime," said Morris Mohawk Gaming Group CEO Alwyn Morris.

"We're sending a team of players to the APT Macau in total Bodog style and one of them will be freerolling their way there to compete for a share of its $1.5 million guaranteed prize pool."

There are also other ways to get players the $8,000 dollar package, players can also try for one of the three APT Macau VIP Prize Packages Bodog is awarding.  Players can work their way from the "cheap seats" and build tournament credits to get into other qualifiers, then take down a Turbo Quarterfinal. 

If you don't want to work your way up to the Semifinals you can also directly buyin to one of the Semfinal events for $300 + $20.  The Semifinal events are going to be scheduled for the next three Sundays at 3:15pm.
