WPT Asia Online

WPT Asia Online, presented by Poker King, is in full swing and has already crowned five of its champions. Those champions now have their names forever written into the World Poker Tour's history books, but the best is yet to come thanks to the Mini Main Event attracting a bumper crowd, and the Main Event set to draw in a massive field, too.

Event #1: NLHE Warm-Up (6-max)

"AAAAQ" got WPT Asia Online off to a flying start by outlasting 704 opponents in Event #1: NLHE Warm-Up (6-max). The ��220 ($34.50) buy-in tournament awarded its winner ��27,438 ($4,300), giving them plenty of ammunition for the rest of the exciting series.

Event #2: NLHE 1 Million Gtd

Event #2: NLHE 1 Million Gtd saw 907 players exchange ��1,100 ($172.50) for the chance to become a WPT Asia Online champion. The ��1 Million ($156,700) prize pool was shared among the top 109 finishers, but it was "Woshuaiwoleyi89" who got their hands on their lion's share of the prize money, namely a cool ��191,400 ($29,990).
