Apt Poker Room Manila
MANILA, PHILIPPINES, 2008
The Asian Poker Tour (APT) - Manila was the inaugural event in this ground-breaking series taking place from May 26th until June 2nd. Titan Poker afforded its players the opportunity to compete for attendance to the APT - Manila and was met with a great response. This is partly due to the whopping $1 million prize pool that awaited qualifying players who trekked off to Manila.
The APT also opened its own poker room in Manila in February of 2015 where two of the tour's events were held on that year, including the year-ender event.Minimum age limit is 21 years of age This schedule may be updated without prior notice APT Tournament Rules Apply Back to top Qualifiers Qualify to the APT Philippines Championships 2018!
