The spotlight shines on the Royal Poker Club Hanoi this month as the Vietnam International Poker Tour 2024 approaches. Set to take place in just a few days, April 19 to April 29, 2024, the inaugural event is a brainchild of the young poker room boasting a lineup of 37 trophy events and an impressive VN₫ 40 Billion (~USD 1.6 Million) in guarantees.
This multi-billion figure may seem ambitious for a newcomer but with poker booming in Vietnam, players can expect a large crowd of international and local players jumping at the chance to tackle something new.
Buy ins for the upcoming VIPT range from VN₫ 2,300,000 (~USD 94) to the highest of VN₫ 88,000,000 (~USD 3,591) at the Super Star Challenge, ensuring every type of bankroll is covered.
