To enter, just drop by registration with the VN₫ 22,000,000 (~US$ 940) buy in, and take your seat. Registration is open all throughout the nine levels and two hours into Day 2.

All you need to know on the Main Event
Like yesterday’s first edition, today’s High Rollers Single Day also had a slow start with just three players on the felt. The table has since filled up, among the players are Vamerdino Magsakay, Florent Benlloch, and Hoang Nevar. Registration closes at 7:30pm. Buy in is VN₫ 32,500,000 (~US$ 1,390).
Following the two events was the Super Deep Stack Turbo, this is a popular one among the masses. Getting to the felt early is beneficial as players start with a 20,000 stack which is 200 times the opening blinds. Another big draw of this event is its fast structure with blinds increasing every 20 minutes. Buy in is VN₫ 6,600,000 (~US$ 280). Registration closes at 5:10pm.
See you at the tables!
