2018 Poker Tournament Schedule

The Asian Poker Tour has been guaranteed for three more years thanks to continuing strategic partnerships with Resorts World Manila and Geutebruck Korea Inc.

The Asian Poker Tour (APT) was founded in 2008, in Manila, The Philippines, to date, the tour has awarded over 20 million dollars to players in more than 70 major events. The tour stops at Philippines, Macau, South Korea, Cambodia, Vietnam, India, Australia, London, and New Caledonia.

In 2010, The APT entered a partnership with Resorts World Manila, that so far has resulted in 18 poker events held at the Resort, notably the Iron Man Poker Challenge in 2013 (which holds the Guinness World Record for the longest, continuous running poker tournament at 48 hours and 56 minutes) and the APT Champions.

Both parties have profited greatly from the partnership, so it's no surprise that the APT announced the deal's been renewed for three more years.

Now the company has announced a new partner, Geutebruck Korea Inc., a South Korean company that operates the paradise Casino Walkerhill in Seoul and the Paradise city of Incheon.

The two companies reached a two-year agreement that confirms an APT presence in South Korea for 2018.

The APT first entered the Korean market in 2013, with events in Jeju and Daegu. This year, however, they added a new destination, the Paradise City resort in Incheon City.

The event attracted over 1,200 entries and a series prize pool of over half a million dollars, which may not sound like much until you factor in that South Korean law only allows foreigners to enter casinos.

This would mean that most if not all the entrants traveled to South Korea to play in this tournament as no local can legally play. These numbers made the APT a bona fide tourist attraction.

Now for the 2018 events, APT is apparently not returning to Jeju or Daegu but it's staying in Incheon and moving one event to the Paradise Casino Walkerhill in Seoul instead.
