In response to increasing concerns about the Coronavirus and associated restrictions on travel, the Asian Poker Tour (APT) and Natural8.com, the leading Asian operator of GGNetwork, have entered into a partnership to hold an online series that will be open to Natural8 and all of GGNetwork.
APT General Manager and Executive Tournament Director, Lloyd Fontillas said, “As a land based operator, I have put together a schedule mimicking our great tournament structures fit for our regular players with many different buy in options. Starting times will vary from event to event in order for players to concentrate on one event of their choice within the day. As for the online grinders that love to multi table, Natural8 will still continue to hosts their great guaranteed daily events running beside the APT schedule.
Keeping the action going for the sake of the game we all love here in Asia. We are really excited to do this inaugural event with Natural8 as a partner, who has been supporting us since 2017.”
The APT Online Series will be held online on Natural8 from April 29th to May 10th overlapping with the Golden Week holiday of Japan and will feature a $500 buy-in Main Event, $800 buy in Championships Event, $400 buy in PLO Championships and $400 buy in Short Deck Championships. Trophies along with the Player of the Series will be awarded as well. Guarantees and full schedule will be posted on APT website and on Natural8.com.
