The first-ever government approved major live poker tournament in the Kingdom of Thailand has already attracted 1,188 entries throughout two starting days at UOB LIVE and that attendance figures is expected to be boosted significantly on a sunny Sunday in the bustling metropolis of Bangkok. Many poker enthusiasts from near and far had been waiting for poker to become legal in the travel paradise and the Thai government recognised the card game as a sport a few days prior to the 2025 WPT Prime Thailand Exhibition Championship Event.

With the THB 37 Million guarantee in travel funds already surpassed, the success of the flagship tournament with a entry fee of THB 37,000 has exceeded the expectations and history will be written within the next few days in this special event hosted by PokerTalk Thailand and WPTGold.

At noon local time, the 70 tables of the vast tournament area will be filled to the brim as two starting days get underway. Day 1b will see 154 players out of 663 entries return to their seats for level 16 at blinds of 4,000-8,000 with a big blind ante of 8,000. Only 83 of them will reach the money and then bag up for the the day to return on Monday with a travel fund prize already locked up.

Day 1c kicks off at the same time with all players starting their journey on 40,000 in chips, good enough for 200 big blinds in the opening level. The late registration will be open for the first nine levels and following break with all levels lasting the same 20 minutes in order to comply with the current allowed gaming hours in the brand new legal Thai live poker market.

Last but not least, all those bowing out from Day 1c have one last chance as of 4 p.m. local time with Day 1d and both of the new flights today will conclude once their respective fields have been whittled down to the top 12.5% as well.

The initial PokerNews live updates will focus on the conclusion of Day 1b before switching to Day 1c, with all chip counts from the final flight and the Day 2 seat draw to be published later in the night. There will also be live stream action available on the PokerTalk Thailand social media platforms as well including cards-up coverage and multiple languages.
