Terry Fan Wins Macau Poker Cup Red Dragon Title

The PokerStars Macau Poker Cup Red Dragon main event attracted the largest ever field to an Asian tournament at the weekend and it was online qualifier Terry Fan who walked away with the HK$1.77 million (€227,981) top prize.

A total of 891 players paid the HK$11,000 entry fee over three day 1s and Taiwan’s Fan started the final table as chip leader but at one stage was the short stack before doubling up twice.
