Kickoff

Don't miss the action at Okada Manila, Philippines, with PokerStars LIVE's first series of the year, Manila Megastack, on spotlight! Today's action sees two flights for its opening highlight - Kickoff, play down, bringing PHP 3,000,000 (~USD 51,290) in guarantees on the table.

Games start right at 12 noon with the first flight of the day running 25 minutes on the clock. Each entry buys players a starting stack of 30,000, 150x the opening blinds. On top of the prizes to be won, a 2025 APPT Manila Main Event Package, valued at PHP 125,000 (~USD 2,140), will be at stake, awarding more value for the eventual winner. All heats are due to wrap up once ITM at 15% of the field is reached, with the combined survivors geared to return to the scene this Wednesday, January 22nd, for the Day 2 battle.

Registration remains open through Level 10 @17:30. Stay tuned for updates as SMP brings you all the latest directly off the floor!
