APPT Cambodia Main Event Starts Today Featuring $500,000 Guarantee

After six days of pre-games at APPT Cambodia,  day 7 opens with the APPT Main Event featuring a US$ 500,000 guarantee! This is the Asia Pacific Poker Tour’s third annual visit to NagaWorld Integrated Resorts in capital city Phnom Penh, and gauging by the turnout on the previous days, players can expect the guarantee to be easily surpassed. The event runs from November 21 to 25, 2024.

APPT Cambodia Main Event US$ 500,000 Guarantee

In partnership with Connaissance Management Group, this year’s Main Event is priced at US$ 1,650 with three entry flights to choose from. With a starting stack of 30,000, players that enter at the opening level will have 300 times the blinds giving plenty of grinding time to rake in more chips. Flight blinds increase every 40 minutes. Registration closes at the start of Level 11, at 7:10pm. Players that opt to enter at the last second still have a decent 20 bb. The flight continues until the end of 15 levels. Remaining players bag up and head to Day 2 where blinds increase every 60 minutes.

Looking back, the first ever APPT Cambodia Main Event champion was Canada’s Alexander Puchalski in 2022, then Taiwan’s Chao Ting Cheng on the following year. With the prize pool increasing every year, the top prize is expected to be bigger than previous.

Some of the players to be expected are APPT Manila Championship winner Trong Hieu Ngo, PokerStars Red Dragon champion Aladin Reskallah, Russia’s Anton Poliakov, Vietnam’s Kyle Bao Diep, and Filipino player Rene Mar David who won a package to the event. These players have already been spotted at the scene with the first two mentioned already securing early wins.
