The Asian Poker Tour‘s rollicking calendar of events is making its next pit stop in the Philippines for the APT Asian Series Manila 2012. The event, which will be held at Resorts World Manila’s Prosperity Court located on the 2nd Level Gaming Area from September 19-25, is the fourth stop of the poker tour’s Asian Series, following in the combined success of previous stops in Cebu, Philippines, Goa, India, and Grand Bay, Mauritius.
Overall, the Asian Series Manila 2012 will feature a schedule full of events, highlighted by a Php50,000-Main Event, ten side events including the very first 10-6-4 Handed event, six satellites, and an Add-On for Charity event. The other side events include the Head Hunter tournament, the PokerAce High Rollers, the Ladies of Poker event, the MegaSportsWorld Deep Stack Turbo event, the DafaPoker Freezeout event, and a Six-Handed event.
Needless to say, that’s a whole lot of variety that poker players of all skill levels will enjoy choosing from.
But the highlight of the week-long poker festivities is still the Main Event, which we expect to draw more participants than three previous Asian Series stops. After all, this is Manila, a growing melting pot of some of the best poker players in the Asian region.
