This coming Friday will mark the beginning of the World Poker Championship, which will be held at the Grand Loyal Poker Club in Hanoi. The tournament series will consist of ten days of action, and it will be held in partnership with the South East Asia Poker Tour. There will be a total of 19 events, and fewer than half of them will offer solid prize pool guarantees.

Additional Information Regarding the World Poker Championship

Players who are interested in competing in the series and are willing to travel to Hanoi to do so will have the opportunity to do so in 19 different events, each of which has a prize pool worth more than VN 20 Billion (US$ 854,800). The events in the nation’s capital will run through the 25th, giving players a total of ten days to compete.

This series will offer wagering options to suit players of varying skill levels and bankroll sizes. There will be a wide selection of games to choose from, each with a unique buy-in price. There are both low and high stakes events included. It is anticipated that high rollers will compete in the Super Star Challenge, which has one of the highest entry fees of all the tournaments.

Satellites will also be provided in order to assist players in gaining entry to the tournaments at a more affordable cost. Players who have smaller bankrolls but still want to compete in events with higher buy-ins can benefit greatly from this strategy.
