The Asian Poker Tour (APT), sponsored by Natural8, is set to host its APT Taipei Poker Classic 2024 from September 27th to October 7th.
The 11-day event will take place across two venues in central Taipei, just 1.7 kilometers apart, in partnership with the Chinese Texas Hold’em Poker Club (CTP).
The main games will be held at the CTP Asia Poker Arena (APA), Asia’s largest permanent poker room, while additional events will be hosted at the Chinese Mahjong League venue.
The previous APT event held in Taipei was the largest poker series in the island’s history, with the new event to host prize pool guarantees over TWD150 million ($4.6 million).
The flagship APT Main Event will feature the same buy-in of TWD50,000 ($1,537) as the record-breaking APT Taipei 2023 edition, but with an increased guarantee of TWD65 million ($2 million) – more than double the previous iteration.
The action-packed schedule will encompass 108 Trophy Events, catering to a diverse range of poker enthusiasts. Highlights include a No Limit Hold’em Heads Up (64 Cap) tournament, over 20 High Roller events, and a variety of poker variants such as Pot Limit Omaha (PLO).
This will include also Draw Poker tournaments (including a 19-game Dealer’s Choice and a Mix Game Masters 9 Game), as well as an eclectic mix of No Limit Hold’em and Pot Limit Omaha side events, including Short Deck, Crazy Pineapple, and more.
