When the APT Championship (#APTC2025) concludes on Sunday, the official numbers will come in at 28,000+ entrants and more than NT$1 BILLION (~US$32 MILLION) in prize money -- firmly putting this poker festival on the global stage!

This milestone belongs to the relentless team at @AsianPokerTour, our incredible partners at @CtpClub, and every single player that showed up and believed in what we were building. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!

I promise you it will be even better next year when the APTC returns November 13-29, 2026.

Hello Cyprus

[Fred Leung @fleung22]

Reminiscing about the last time I was at @cityofdreamsPH where our amazing crew (pictured) had set the record for largest international field in Philippines poker history with 1,364 entries. A record that still stands today!

Now bearing the @AsianPokerTour flag, my new team will attempt to set a new high when #APTManila2024 (Oct 28-Nov 7) arrives with a ₱85k buy-in Main Event -- which comes with a ₱100 MILLION PRIZE POOL GTD!!

The good folks at @natural8 have DOUBLED their guarantees so there are plenty of opportunities to be part of this poker festival before it even begins! Checkout: https://t.co/6wbTXHaBYb

Come by, say hi, and I'll see you all there!!
