After some rescheduling, Asian Poker Championships will be on March 8-9, 2008 and will be hosted by Metro Asia Hyatt. Buy-in is US$ 2,500 and includes a three night stay at the Hyatt, but only US$ 1,800 for local players (sans the Hyatt room). This will be the 1st leg of the tour and the Champions of each leg will meet for the champions' game for bigger prizes.

Cash will be the main prize for the winners. Final table participants will be awarded seats for the APC Korea which will be on April 18th. APC Manila runner up will also win a seat in Asia Gem's massive tournament the Chairman's Cup. The event winner will receive all of this plus air-fare to Korea for APC Korea and a seat at the APC Champions table where all the leg winners play for the title and more cash.

Metro Asia Hyatt will be having satellite tournaments on February 23, 26, 27, 28, March 1, 3, 4, 5, 6. All satellites will start registration at 6pm with the exception of the Feb. 23 satellite which will start at 5pm. Buy-in for the satellite is US$ 200 (Php 8,400 so please bring dollars instead) with an optional re-buy OR add-on at US$ 100 (Php 4,100, read above). There will be three seats (of the US$1,800 variety) added onto the prize pool regardless of how many seats will be made, so if there are two seats made by the prize pool, five seats will be given.
