Will keep you informed on the progress
I hope this will happen! And for the sake of this great thread I hope this will happen very soon since these kind of NVG threads normally have the same shelf life as a bottle of milk.

Let's do this!

Moreover, they take 'losing' personally', not against the person they are losing to, but against the 'game' itself, and losing makes them even more determined to come back and 'win', like Andy Beal v.1.0 and not Andy Beal v.3.0
Looks like you have Studied the habbits of Chinese Gamblers to the T, your sure this is not a sterotype?

We are still working with KevMath getting to Macau next week. Whilst he may get to watch the game for a bit, there will be no photos or videos allowed for reasons discussed earlier and reporting will be restricted to a degree to reflect privacy of those local players and pros that request it. That being said it will be possible to do hand histories and the like and some pros are cool discussing things. It is a somewhat unusual position of reporting on such a game and not something we are used to. Still trying to find the right balance I guess to keep you guys happy, yet keep the game safe and secure for those playing in it. The regulars are already upset about some of the photos floating around.

In the event KevMath's passport doesn't make it, we will delegate Matt Savage to choose an alternate, but best to wait till Kev's position is clear, please don't bombard Matt's inbox with travel requests.

I've been to a number of countries in Asia. I disagree, 90% of the girls walking down the street aren't even close.

Most of the good looking Asian women live in the overseas, particularly in North America. Their family is generally well-off, but background details can be sketchy.

There are many beautiful Asian women in Vancouver, but I don't like them very much because they are generally not very smart!

Regarding the passport issue, Mr. Matt Savage is better off finding someone who already has a passport and has some travelling experience (don't pick anyone with no education). Even so, did the casino owner actually approve these selected foreigners access to the private game??? This doesn't really add up because I know for certain the security in casinos are extremely tight.

Just watched durrrr play headsup with the Chinese businessman tonight. The stakes are 30,000HKD/60,000HKD. (Roughly about $3.9K/$7.8K USD!!) Durrrr has about 40-50 orange plates + change (each worth $100K, roughly about 5-6 million) but his opponent has about 50-60 orange plates, plus 2 stack of yellow plates (each worth $500K, so roughly about 150 million).

Have you ever seen Durrrr play in any form of cash game (televised or online) as a short stack? Here is your chance LOL.

The Chinese businessman looks kind of drunk and has 2 glasses of beer beside him.

Ivey, on the other hand, is currently playing a 5-handed game where the stakes are 10K/20K HKD. (1.3K/2.6K USD) He seems to be having fun and has 3-4 million in front of him as well. Exact count is not sure because there was a side table near him with 4-5 piles of orange plates as well. (donno whether they are Ivey or belong to the Chinese next to him)

No sight of Juanda, Chau Chiang and Johnny Chan though. I never see Lisandro on these tables this few days so I assume he cannot afford these stakes.

Photos later, MAYBE.
