The Main Event is the brand’s most highly revered tournament and it is the event everyone aims to conquer. This one is especially rare as it is the first to be awarded by the APT in Hanoi. For those new to the APT, the main reason players seek out this tournament is due to its well crafted structure. The tournament features a deep stack format with slow escalating blinds, allowing for plenty of playing time which ultimately rewards the more skilled. For players that enter at the last second, you still have a decent 20 BB to start with. In mid April, Vietnamese player Hue Dang shipped the APT Vietnam Phu Quoc Main Event. She will likely be at the festival looking to bag her second title.
Bubble Protection
To spice thing’s up, the APT extends an incentive for all the early birds, the Bubble Protection. This is a very powerful perk to have. In the unfortunate event that you find yourself busting on the bubble, the APT will give you back your buy in in the form of APT credits. To qualify for Bubble Protection all that’s required are these simple steps:
- Pre-register
- Draw for your seat
- Have your chips in play by the first deal of Level 1
