The Royal Poker Tour (RPT) Championship III is set to run from June 3 to 16 in Hanoi, with all action taking place at the Royal Poker Club .

This edition arrives with a broader schedule and a clear emphasis on high-stakes play, featuring an 88 billion VND guaranteed prize pool across the series. The schedule includes five multi-day events, including the Main Event, alongside nine High Roller tournaments. Headlining the high roller side is the Super Star Challenge, which carries the largest buy-in of the series at VND 120,000,000.

Main Event Anchors the Schedule with 20 Billion Guarantee

The RPT Main Event sits at the center of the series, boasting a huge VND 20,000,000,000 guaranteed prize pool. Multiple starting flights run from June 10 to 12, leading into Day 2 on June 13 and the Final Table on June 14.

The tournament is built with a 40,000 starting stack and unlimited re-entry until Level 11, giving players flexibility across the opening stages. Play is 8-handed throughout, with 12.5% of the field reaching the money.

An action clock will be in play from the start, with players given 20 seconds for their first decision pre-flop and 30 seconds thereafter, supported by time bank cards distributed at the start and during scheduled breaks.

The structure scales steadily through the tournament, with shorter levels in the opening flights, increasing to 50 minutes on Day 2 and 60 minutes at the Final Table, ensuring deeper play as the event reaches its closing stages.

Bonus Packages Add Extra Incentive

Three of the key multi-day events carry additional rewards. The winners of the Mini Main Event, Tiger Cup, and Championship Event each earn a VND 50,000,000 package to compete in the RPT Grand Final in December.

It adds a clear layer of value beyond the immediate prize pools, linking the summer series directly to the season finale.

Off the felt, the series will also feature a Player Party on June 17 at 17:00, taking place at the TOP.U Lounge Beer Club in Hanoi. The event includes a lucky draw, with prizes awarded in the form of tickets to upcoming RPT events, including the Opener, Mini Main Event, and Main Event.

High Rollers Drive the Series

A total of nine High Roller events are scheduled across the festival, forming the backbone of the series. The standout is the Super Star Challenge at VND 120,000,000, supported by a range of events that allow players to stay in action across multiple days.

The structure of the schedule leans heavily toward high-volume play, with overlapping opportunities that suit players looking to maintain momentum throughout the two-week stretch.

Early Bird Packages for Full Schedules

For those planning to commit to the full high roller lineup, early bird packages are available, combining multiple entries into a single buy-in. Each option includes the choice of accommodation at the Dream Hotel & Apartment or a reduced rate without it.

The Platinum package covers a full 14-day high roller schedule at 554.5M VND (or 532M VND without hotel). The Gold package spans 12 days at 477.5M VND, while the Silver package offers a 10-day schedule at 378.5M VND, with reduced rates available for players opting out of accommodation.
