Prize pool is up! New APT Championships Event record!


Once again, a new record here with the Championships Event drawing 316 entries for a prize pool of P22,989,000 (USD 442,700). This more than eclipsed the advertised P10M guarantee and it blew past the previous record of 288 entries set at APT Taiwan.

Here are the numbers:

Day 1A: 96 entries
Day 1B: 179 entries
Day 2: 41 entries

Total: 316 entries

With 10% of the field paid, 32 players will earn a cut. The eventual winner is due to pocket a jaw-dropping P5,295,900 (~USD 102,000).
