The Poker King Cup of 2017 is going to be held at the Poker King Club located within the Venetian in Macau.  This amazing poker tournament will feature a total of 12 action packed events that will take place over the course of days between May 18th and May 26th.

The main highlighted event during this poker festival will be the HK $16,500.00 Poker King Cup Macau Main Event, where the main attraction of this event will be the 5 million dollar guaranteed prize pool.

This tournament begins on May 21st where there will be a total of three opening days from the 21st to the 23rd.  Players that bag chips will be allowed to continue within the tournament for another three days starting on the 24th going until the 26th, until the king of the hill is crowned.
