KPC Poker will debut its unified tour at LES A Casino in Jeju from October 10-21, featuring $2.3 million in guarantees. The festival includes two Main Events, multiple high rollers and buy-ins ranging from ₩800,000 to $60,000.
KPC Poker will make its first major appearance under its new unified name when the 12-day festival takes place at LES A Casino in Jeju, Shinhwa World from October 10-21. The series carries $2.3 million (₩3.1 billion) in guarantees and features buy-ins ranging up to the $60,000 Super High Roller.
K Poker Cup and King Poker Cup have officially joined forces under the KPC Poker banner. The rebranded tour will bring a wide range of tournaments to Jeju, including two Main Events with distinctly different buy-ins and formats.
Players can also choose from packages combining tournament entries, credits and hotel stays. A separate promotion offers complimentary accommodation for the entire festival to players who pre-pay $70,000 in tournament buy-ins.
The festival begins on Saturday, October 10 with the ₩800,000 KPC Bankroll Builder. The event carries a ₩180 million guarantee and features three opening flights.
Ninety minutes after the first cards are dealt in the Bankroll Builder, the $5,000 King's Debut will begin with a $1 million guarantee.
The King's Debut was a major part of previous King Poker Cup festivals. Its return gives the opening weekend one of the largest guarantees in the series. Three starting flights take place across October 10-11, with the final day scheduled for October 12.
The ₩1.3 million KPC Main Event will already be underway by then. Six opening flights are scheduled between October 11 and October 14, including evening turbo options.
Players who advance through the opening flights return for Day 2 on October 15, with the winner crowned the following day. The event features an ₩880 million guarantee, the largest KRW-denominated guarantee on the schedule.
High Roller Action Builds Through the Festival
The middle portion of the festival shifts toward larger buy-in tournaments. A ₩5 million High Roller carrying a ₩420 million guarantee begins on October 12. The following day brings the first $25,000 Single Day Super High Roller.
The biggest buy-in of the festival then takes place with the $60,000 King's Super High Roller. The event begins on October 14 and continues through October 16, placing it at the top of the festival's high roller program.
The schedule also includes a $15,000 Single Day High Roller Turbo on October 15, followed by the $20,000 Crown Hunt the following afternoon.
The second Main Event begins on October 17, with the $15,000 King's Main Event taking place toward the end of the festival.
The tournament features two starting flights. Day 1A is scheduled for Saturday, October 17, while Day 1B follows on Sunday. The remaining players combine on October 19, with the champion set to be decided on October 20.
