“2016 is another exciting year for the Poker King Club brand. This year started out with a bang with WPT Philippines in January, under which we also introduced our new poker tournament brand, Triton Poker – Super High Roller. Both the number of entries and the total prizepool set historical records in the Asian market. Other than that, we also continued working with our partners in China, Hong Kong, Macau, the Philippines, and Jeju to find more opportunities and provide more options to our players, which you saw WPT Korea, the Macau Charity Poker Tournament hosted by IDN Play, and our namesake tournament, Poker King Cup, among others, and you can expect more to come.
We are happy to announce a new collaboration with Lisboa Macau, and I am sure everyone is excited about our new project in Halong Bay, Vietnam. Our team is working on the preparations as we speak, and we look forward to welcoming everyone to this new location very soon.” – Winfred Yu, President of the Poker King Club
