LES A Casino (formerly Landing Casino) is the high-roller haven of Jeju’s foreigner-only gaming scene, located within the sprawling Jeju Shinhwa World integrated resort. Rebranded in late 2025 to reflect a new era of “first and best” service (French: Les A), this venue has become the definitive home for high-stakes poker in South Korea . Its massive gaming floor and luxury infrastructure make it a favorite for elite international tours, including the Triton Poker Super High Roller Series and the Asian Poker Tour (APT) .

The Jeju Poker Experience
The poker action at LES A Casino is split between a consistent cash game scene and a packed calendar of international festivals. Cash games typically spread KRW 2,000/5,000 and KRW 5,000/10,000 No-Limit Hold’em, though during major series like APT Jeju or Triton, the room explodes with high-stakes action reaching KRW 100,000/200,000 and beyond.
The venue is famous for its “festival season.” In early 2026, the casino hosted a massive 16-day festival featuring the K Poker Cup (KPC) x Long Poker Tour (LPT) followed immediately by the debut of the King Poker Cup, a premium high-stakes series featuring buy-ins up to $30,000. These series, alongside the Red Dragon Poker Tour and Gods of Poker (GOP) , ensure that LES A remains a year-round destination for competitive play.
