APT Philippines underway!

Welcome to APT Philippines 2022! Cards are flying here at Resorts World Manila with opening day featuring the Mystery Bounty Php 2 Million (~US$ 38,285) guaranteed. This type of bounty event is is rapidly growing in popularity with various festivals around the region introducing it into their lineup. In March, the APT hosted the Mystery Bounty Weekend Series, the first of its kind seen in the Philippines. 

Unlike regular bounty tournaments where players receive a bounty reward for every player they knock out, at this Mystery Bounty tournament, only players that reach the money have a chance at the bounty rewards. Bounty prizes remain a mystery until it is drawn and revealed by the winning player. Buy in for this event is Php 16,500 (~US$ 316)

For today’s schedule, players can join the fun by taking advantage of the two starting flights. Flight A is underway (started at 1pm) with 82 players already battling it out on the felt within the first 2 hours.  Registration for this heat closes at 735pm which means plenty of time to get in on the action. 

For players coming in a bit later, Flight B kicks off at 5pm with late registration closing at 1135pm. Players who bagged short stacks at Flight A can attempt for multiple stacks however only the best stack advances.
