April 30, 2018 11:13 amMacau Poker Tournament 2018 Results
The 2018 Macau Millions took place at the City of Dreams resort in the Cotai district of Macau from April 17-23, with 15 official Asia Player of the Year events held throughout its 7-day schedule. These included tournaments with buy-ins ranging from HK$1,000 to HK$30,000, with plenty of cheaper satellites available for just a few hundred dollars.
Drawing the most amount of interest, however, was its $3,000 Main Event, which offered a guaranteed prize pool of $3 million, with the ultimate winner also receiving a PokerStars Players No Limit Hold’em Championship (PSPC) Platinum Pass worth $30K. This year, the event attracted a record-breaking field of 2,499 players, beating the previous all time high set in 2016 of 2,343 entrants, and as Mark Blake, Head of Live Events in the Asia Pacific, explains:
“Breaking the record for largest field in Macau history is, clearly, a bigger challenge with each installment of the Macau Millions. The ability to meet that challenge each and every time we’ve hosted this event is a proud achievement for my team and I.”
Claims Coveted Trophy
Taiwan’s Chen Lin eventually claimed the title for a HK$1,159,000 (US$147,642) payday, and following his win boasts $969,627 in career earnings since his first live cash back in 2009. The score also represents the 33 year-old professional player’s best to date, narrowly beating the $141,434 he claimed less than three months ago after finishing 8th at the Aussie Millions Main Event.
“I think the trophy means more to me than the Platinum Pass, just because this is the first Main Event title I’ve ever won,” Lin said. “I’ve bubbled three main event final tables so this is a special moment for me.”
HK$3k Main Event
The HK$3k (US$382) Main Event featured a prize pool more than double its $3 million guarantee, and amongst the notable pros finishing in one of its 175 money places was Darren Phua in 78th ($1,847), Alexander Ryskin in 45th ($2,586), Hung-Sheng Lin in 30th($3,503), Victor Chong in 18th ($5,732), and Yazhou Chen in 10th ($11,019).
At the final table, Chen Lin then managed to progress all the way through to heads-up play where he faced off against Xu Jun Huang, a mainland Chinese player who had just $5,000 in winnings prior to the Macau Millions Main Event. On the final hand, Chen Lin (Q-J) raised then called Huang’s (A-10) three-bet preflop, with the 2-J-8 flop inducing a check-raise from Huang. A 10 on turn subsequently saw Huang move-all in, and after Lin quickly called, a harmless 6 on the river saw Huang collect a HK$683,000 ($87,006) for his runner-up finish, while Lin walked away the victor.

HK$30k High Roller
The Macau Millions High Roller attracted an impressive 183 runners, who paid HK$30,000 (US$3,822) a piece to create a prize pool of HK$4,899,276 ($624,435). Amongst the better known pros seeing a return on their buy-ins was Eric Wasylenko in 22nd ($6,883), Phanlert Sukonthachartnant in 20th ($7,520), Tokuho Yoshinaga in 16th ($8,412), and Yang Zhang in 11th ($11,853).
In the end, however, it was China’s Yuefeng Pan who would best fellow compatriot Xianglai Li heads-up to claim the title, with the HK$1,085,000 (US$138,288) he won representing his third biggest score to date, with his best result recorded in 2015 after taking down the Macau Poker Cup 23 Red Dragon for $271,986. Yuefeng Pan now has $653,634 in lifetime earnings, placing him at number 27 on the country’s ‘All Time Money List’, with Elton Tsang topping the list with $12,752,988 in winnings.
