The inaugural APT Vietnam Phu Quoc – MAIN EVENT – is underway! 138 players are back in action here at Corona Resort & Casino. It’s wall to wall with every table and seat owned. The first fifteen minutes has already resulted in numerous all ins and bust outs. Registration is open for the first hour, closing at 1:10pm. Prize pool and payouts will be posted once registration closes.
At this time, the pot is nearing VN₫ 5 Billion with 336 entries. Leading the race are Day 1 top dogs Truong Vu Tran Khanh – 173,500 (Day 1C) and Joseph Talamayan – 163,300 (Day 1A). The random seat draw put both players at Table 3 so we’ll be keeping a close watch throughout the day to see how they fare.
For players signing up, we have just been told that tables are at capacity and at this time we are accepting alternates. No fret as everyone that buys in before registration closes will be seated. Here are all the details.
