USOP Grand Finale In Hai Phon About To Make Poker History

The U Series of Poker – USOP Grand Finale is ready to take off in just a few days at the Pullman Grand Hotel in Hai Phong City Central, Vietnam. Running for 13 days from November 29 to December 11, 2024, the USOP Grand Finale is set to make poker history by outdoing their previous VND 60 Billion guarantee last September and now offering a VND 100 BILLION (~USD 4 million) guarantee covering 69 events, making it the largest guarantee in Vietnam poker history and USOP history.

Poker players have already sold out the early bird packages for the Main Event and High Roller events, awarding themselves with not only their secured event seats, but also a luxurious stay at the Pullman Grand Hotel.

There are a total of 28 satellite events for the major events in the USOP Grand Finale itinerary. The first major event to open the series on November 29 will be the multi-day Madness Kick Off with a VND 10 billion guaranteed prize pool. In the recent USOP Hai Phong back in September 2024, Sweden’s Johnni Kranker Nielsen won the event with China’s Jing Sun and Vietnam’s Khoi Nguyen bagging second and third respectively.

The most anticipated event in the USOP Hai Phong Grand Finale will be The Main Event with a historic VND 40 billion prize pool guaranteed, outdoing their previous main event guarantee of VND 15 billion.  With seats priced at a reasonable VND 35 million (~USD1,330), the Main Event is geared up to attract one of the biggest fields for a main event in Vietnam poker history. Looking to defend the Main Event title will be South Korea’s Juyeol Lee, who was crowned Main Event champion back in September’s USOP Hai Phong series. The Main Event will have four day-one qualifiers beginning on December 5, 2024.

Another big event for the USOP Hai Phong Grand Finale is The Championship Event with another historic prize pool guarantee of VND 20 Billion, easily topping its previous VND 4 Billion guarantee from the last USOP Hai Phong. Hopefully, China’s Tianhao Zheng will be in town to defend his title when the multi-day tournament kicks off on December 8, 2024..

Of course, The High Roller Championship event is also one of the main attractions of the USOP Hai Phong Grand Finale. While its modest VND 2.5 Billion guarantee may seem small, the VND 150 million (~USD 6,000)  buy-in from hundreds of entries easily surpasses the guarantee to a lot more. Bogdan Munteanu of Romania holds the title from the last USOP Hai Phong series and hopes to be at the felt when the cards are dealt for the Day 1 leg on December 9, 2024.

As an added bonus, the  USOP Grand Finale  offers a 50% tournament fee back on all High Roller events. That’s right– double the action, half the fee! The first 16 players who buy in and get their chips into play before the first hand is dealt will be given this rewarding bonus.
