Hai Phong, Vietnam's third-largest city, is set to be awash with poker players from far and wide this December thanks to the U Series of Poker (USOP) hosting its grand finale at the Pullman Grand Hotel. Now in its second season, the USOP has made significant strides in the Asian poker market, but this USOP Grand Finale is attracting attention from much farther afield.

The USOP caters to poker lovers of all skill levels, from recreational players to elite-level superstars, while focusing on creating a party-like atmosphere and creating memorable poker experiences for everyone attending its events.

The 2024 USOP Grand Finale in Hai Phong runs from November 29 to December 11, and it is fair to say it will be spectacular. Not only is the festival held at the luxurious Pullman Grand Hotel, the first Grand Hotel in Southeast Asia, but USOP is guaranteeing at least VND 100 Billion (US$4 million) across the series, making it the largest guaranteed live poker festival in USOP and Vietnamese poker history!

VND 40 Billion Guaranteed Main Event

Juyeol Lee
Juyeol Lee won the USOP Hai Phong Main Event in September 2024

Although every USOP Grand Finale tournament will be fiercely contested, it is the series' Main Event that everyone has earmarked. Costing VND 35 million (US$1,400) to enter, the USOP Grand Final Main Event boasts a VND 40 billion ($1.57 million) guaranteed prize pool.

A similar-sized Main Event ran at USOP Hai Phong at the Dream Dragon Resort in September. That time around, the Main Event cost VND 30 million to enter, a price that 1,507 players paid, creating a VND 38.25 billion (US$1.55 million) prize pool.

South Korea's Juyeol Lee came out on top and walked away with the equivalent of US$256,715 after defeating Australia's Julian Warhurst (US$180,756) heads-up. The 2018 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event runner-up Tony Miles finished fifth in that event, taking home US$64,991.

USOP Trophies

In addition to a six-figure top prize, the Main Event champion will also receive a custom trophy plated with 18k gold and 925 silver. The USOP Grand Finale trophies are masterpieces and will be highly sought after.
