2018 has seen tremendous changes in the Asian poker landscape and contributing largely to this is today’s newest poker hotspot – Vietnam. Last year, the Vietnamese government gave the thumbs up for poker membership clubs to be erected with locals allowed to participate.
One of the first places to open was WIN Bridge & Poker Club in Hanoi, home of the highly popular local series, National Poker Championships (NPC). Since then, WIN Poker has expanded to Da Nang, Vinh Phuc, and now in Ho Chi Minh City called WIN Poker Saigon. The newest poker club opened on October 18, 2018 in conjunction with the re-opening of WIN Poker Hanoi that closed for a three-week renovation.
WIN Poker Sài Gòn
WIN Poker Saigon is the fourth branch of WIN BRIDGE & POKER CLUB. This new room promises to be one of the best poker clubs in the Southern part of the country. Inside are 20 tables, including 3 tables in the VIP area. Apart from the modernized tournament area, there is also an outdoor bar. The venue is situated in a prime spot, right in the center of Ho Chi Minh City near Bui Vien backpacking area in District 1. Official opening was on Thursday, October 18, 2018.
Players attending the opening were welcomed in with an attractive schedule featuring a series of events, most notably, the Multi Day WIN Roller event with VND 1,000,000,000 Guaranteed. See schedule of opening week’s festivities below:
Address: WIN Poker Saigon is located on the 3rd floor of the International Plaza Building, 343 Pham Ngu Lao Street, District 1.
Newly renovated WIN Poker Hanoi
WIN Poker Hanoi started operations in April 2017, and has since become one of the most trusted clubs by players. The place is always busy with training events and tournaments running daily.
Having recently gone for a face lift, the club closed on September 29 for a few short weeks. Re-opening day was on Thursday, October 18 with new tables added and lighting enhanced. Other parts also getting work done were the auditorium, the kitchen, bar, and smoking area.
In addition to the upgrades and repairs of the tournament space, the club intends to place emphasis on offering big guaranteed tournaments. To welcome it in, players will see a new series introduced called WIN TIME.
