The gross gaming revenue (GGR) generated from Texas Hold’em poker games in the Macau market has traditionally represented only a fraction of the city’s overall GGR.
Nonetheless it has been making a modest comeback in the Macau casino market, relative to pre-pandemic performance, two industry commentators recently told GGRAsia.
The game format generated MOP151 million (US$18.7 million) in the second quarter of this year, up 67.8 percent from MOP90 million in the first quarter, according to data from the city’s Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau.
The launch of the Texas Hold’em poker zone at Grand Lisboa Palace was first reported by local Chinese-language news outlet All In Media, earlier this week.
