Sergio Aido Wins Macau Poker Cup Single-Day High Roller

Sergio Aido continued to tear up the Asian high roller scene by winning the HK$100,000 Single-Day High Roller at PokerStars Macau Poker Cup 26. Aido pocketed just under HK$2,074,000 or just under $270,000 for winning the event, which drew 81 players, including 65 unique entries at about $12,800 apiece.

The win comes just months after the Spanish pro took third in a pair of events at Triton Super High Roller Series in The Philippines for about $1 million combined.
