The Asian Poker Tour (APT) will kick off less than two months and already the excitement is building as Tour venues have now been announced. Gambling the Asian-Pacific region has grown over the past several years and poker gambling has greatly increased in popularity. The APT is designed to showcase the budding talent in Asia as well as stimulate interest in the growing Asian land and online casino gambling community. The event will take place over a two month period with four tournament venues and poker professionals and online casinos players from all over the world attending at least one of the APT’s events.

This year’s APT is sponsored by the AsianLogic online casinos gambling group. AsianLogic’s subsidiary, ESL-Asia will take over coordinating the events, handling the press and marketing for the event, and maintaining the event’s high standards. The CEO at AsianLogic, Chris Parker, notes, The Asian Poker Tour (APT) will definitely be a top-class brand. This is such an exciting time for poker players in Asia and we feel that with our expertise and skills, we can make the APT a bigger and better series of events each year.”

This year’s four event venues are: Manila, Philippines; Macau; South Korea; and Singapore. The kick-off event is in Manila on May 27th and ESL-Asia will announce the other specific tournament dates in the coming weeks for the other venues. Notably, the four tournament events will each feature a US $1 million guaranteed prize pool for the land and online casinos poker players participating in this year’s APT.

As for where the event is headed in the coming years, AsianLogic has plans to greatly expand the scope of the event by as early as next year’s APT. Parker remarks, “From the four events that will take place this year, the APT plans to expand to a total of six events in 2009. We are continually working to set up some of the worlds most exciting and prestigious poker tournaments.” The growth in the APT will parallel the growth across Asia in the online and land poker gambling activities.
