Um, it's Mr. Elton Tsang, not Sang.

Thank you.

ferries run 24/7. the biggest gap is 4am to 6am, otherwise, ferries run every 15 -30 minutes from HK to Macau.

One of the option is to just take the taxi straight from the airport to the HK ferry terminal, then take the ferry to Macau, and cab to the hotel.

It'd be a nice little adventure.

Matt, Congrats for making this tournament happen so quickly. This is great for poker.

Wow I hate flying. I'm going to have to figure this one out. Seems like it may be worth it. I can't imagine that a private plane is a serious suggestion. Isn't there an Owning Mahoney character out there who has a few hundred k in comps and a desire for a quick LA to Wynn Macau jaunt?

So it looks like it's about 20hrs from LA no matter how you do it. Pretty brutal. Anyone have sidetrips planned before or after?

I looked into a jet, but it was ridiculous. The United LAX - HK flight is 15.5 hours there, 12.5 back. United has/had a deal for $2,700 for business ($25,000 for first if you dont like money).

I dont see the credit card payment option anywhere on the website.

you can pay by credit card when you register online even if you don't have a ps a/c. pls check the official website: www.asianpokeropen.com
or you can pay at the venue in the casino.

[/ QUOTE ]no. credit cards are not one of the payment methods! the only payment methods are using money from your poker star's account, wire transfer, and cash on site.

Seems that you can only sign up for a 6 night package to take advantage of the $100 a night hotel deal. Which sucks somewhat. I'm only going over from HK to play - wanted a few nights only (4)- yet it seems unpossible to arrange.
