TMT Championship Hosts World Poker Federation And Asian Poker Sports Association
On Friday, November 1, 2024, the TMT Championship will host the first-ever collaboration between the World Poker Federation (WPF) and Asian Poker Sports Association (APSA) at the Asia Poker Arena.
The groundbreaking partnership starts with the 2024 APSA Meeting at 11am which aims to establish poker as a recognized and celebrated sport across Asia. Representatives from up to 12 countries will convene to discuss critical topics such as the growth of poker in Asia, regional regulatory challenges, and opportunities for international cooperation. These discussions are pivotal as APSA and WPF continue their joint mission to elevate poker’s status and broaden its reach in the region.
Following the conference, the WPF Taiwan Open debuts at 5:30pm. This is the first WPF event to be held in Taiwan. Everyone is welcome to attend. Buy in is NT$ 8,000 (~US$ 250).
