To set the wheels in motion, an official ceremony was held with Poker Dream founder Winfred Yu presenting and welcoming the players.
“We are bringing Poker Dream into the new era by introducing our new logo. Our new logo not only symbolizes poker. It also represents skillful, professional, and exciting competition of poker tournaments in Asia now and hopefully in the world. We are expanding our tournaments into different countries in Asia – Japan, Korea, Thailand, and more. We truly believe that our tournament is not only a tournament, it creates legends. We believe you can turn your poker dream into a reality. “
To conclude, Yu saved the best for last, the presentation of the new Poker Dream Main Event trophy. A fierce golden dragon wrapped around the new logo. The Poker Dream 10 Vietnam Main Event champion will be the first to claim this golden beauty. The High Roller trophies are also of the same new design but in silver.
