The World Poker Tour will visit INSPIRE Entertainment Resort in Incheon from 30 October to 9 November. The highlight of the festival is the $1,300 WPT Seoul Championship.
The eleven-day poker festival features 45 tournaments, plus satellites. Side-event buy-ins start at $230, with qualifiers available from the same price. At the higher end of the buy-in range are the $2,500 Super High Roller Warm-Up and the $6,050 Super High Roller.
The $1,300 WPT Seoul Championship features four starting flights, running from 5 to 7 November. Day 1D will be a turbo flight held alongside Day 1C. Following a combined Day 2 on 8 November, the winner will be crowned on 9 November. The WPT Seoul Championship comes with approximately $755,000 in guaranteed prize money.
Although the World Poker Tour uses the name Seoul to promote the festival, the event actually takes place in Incheon. The resort is an attractive destination for visitors, as it is just 15 minutes from the airport and offers everything needed for a short getaway. Those wishing to explore South Korea’s capital can also take a day trip.
