the millions in Macau abound, a lot of money moves there, I'm glad they open the casino aya, since it is a reference of high-level poker, surely there will be many people, always with the proper security protocols.

A lot of money will run in these casinos of course and the benefits will be for most, because some people play it for pleasure, not for winnings. This holiday is very big, if there are so many visitors who come with enough money. Very nice.

I hope it all goes well for everyone who is thinking of visiting Macau for Golden Week and that the casinos rake in enough cash to keep going at this very uncertain time for many businesses and for those players who rely on live poker to fulfil their lives and finances. Wish i could be there but maybe I will have to win an entry before I get to choose to go there.

To be honest, this area is not too big but it can become full of tourists who will risk money at the casinos. Poker is played here for a lot of money and i don't think they will lose money. Covid lie has released people's access to game rooms.

I didn't know honestly about this golden weekly , I found out about it when I read the news article . So many workers , hndreds of millions with their families have spare time , being alloes from their factories , companies and businesses , to go on holidays , and this ofcourse is a boost to the the inner tourism , they visit ofcourse relatives but also I guess places they haven't been before or they have been and they liked .
Tourism economy is boosted a lot , so I guess Macau will be able to be benefited by this , already some hotels are full , I hope more to follow and we have some good positive news in the following days , regarding the bookings in the hotels

In every country are holidays and there come locals or tourists. These parties bring money and casinos take advantage of these opportunities to attract customers. Macau is the place where many great players make big games.

I read about Macao casinos that they had five months with almost zero wins due to the Covid 19 "pandemic". Golden Week will attempt a comeback starting October 1st. Celebration anniversary of founding People's Republic of China lasts eight days this year. They have largest gambling center in the world.

Macao is one of the places where more money moves by far in the casinos since there are quite a few millionaires who come to play high-level cash, professionals from all over the world go there, hopefully the security protocols are respected so that they do not find more infections and poker in the casino is not affected by that.

To be honest I would not want this to visit Macau because I have other preferences but I would like 3 strong online poker rooms that have good tournaments and satellites with many players / gamblers. I don't want to waste any more time to earn a few bucks becase tables are too empty...
