THE ASIAN PACIFIC POKER TOUR
The main event of the Asian Pacific Poker Tour started today and will last till the sixth of December at the Star City Casino in Sydney.
Even though the main event has just started today, different side tournaments have been taking place since the 22nd of November.
This tournament's last edition was won by Martin Rowe and there is already a lot of expectation regarding this present edition, as a lot of well known poker players will be taking part, as for instance Peter Easgate or Joe Hachem.
Apart from the main event, the seventh of December it will be celebrated the Tournament of Champions, in which only players who had been previously invited can participate, and therefore it will be a new opportunity to see in action some great poker figures.
And so while we wait to see how this tournament evolves, there is nothing better than playing a few poker hands at the best online poker sites.
