Under : APT Event, APT Korea, Featured, News

With both starting days behind us, we now head to the next stage of the Main Event. Welcome players to Day 2 of the Main Event!

This Main Event is the first featured tournament of APT Korea Incheon 2019 taking place at the luxurious Paradise City Casino. The tournament advertised a KRW 200M guarantee which is now just a mere number with the pot pushing over KRW 240M with 206 entries at KRW 1,320,000 buy-in each. 

The Main Event kicked off on August 4 and will run until a winner is crowned on August 8. Registration is still open but will close at the start of Level 10. Cards in the air at 1pm. At this time we are unable to provide the official prize pool. We will do so as soon as the freezeout stage begins. 

For those jumping in today, starting stack is 25,000 which gets you in still quite deep. If you are new to the APT, our featured tournaments are highly praised by players. See structure. Keep in mind, the APT utilizes the “Ante BB” format. The “Shot Clock” will also be applied once the field is down to the final six tables. This applies to all APT events.
