APPT Korea
www.appt.com
APPT Korea whos going? APPT Manilla was a pretty solid event but Manilla is a dirty ass and dangerous city so it wasn't really fun. Korea APPT is happening 28th of this month and it's going to be a blast. Seoul is a sickkkkkkkk city to party/drink in. Lots of baller [censored] will be happening. If you have questions about Korea or the event post them here.

Re: APPT Korea
I've thought about playing one of the qualifiers on 'Stars for this one...and then decided to lie down until the feeling went away....
I can't imagine why I would fly half way around the planet to play in an event where the total prize pool is likely to be around half a million bucks. I'm guessing there isn't a real, functioning 24/7 poker room there--fly in, more likely than not get eliminated out of the money, then fly home? Yecch. I'll wait for the one in Sydney. That's at least a real poker room in a real casino, in a part of the world I've always wanted to visit.

this sounds really tempting but such a long plane flight would drive me nuts, and additionally i dont think i could take the jet lag for a weeklong poker trip. [/ QUOTE ] Easy Fly to Hawaii for a minivacation for 3-4 days prior to your flight to Gimpo.

Rek, 1) Are they spreading cashgames? How high? 2) Best way to get cheapest flight over there? [/ QUOTE ] Rekrul has mentioned $10/$20 NL live games in his posts in the past (I think?), so whilst I have no idea what the casino will be spreading, I am sure there're cash games going in some of the underground clubs.

[/ QUOTE ] Regularly they only spread 5/5 and 5/10 as the poker room is new and only gets 2-3 tables at a time but for the event I'm sure they'll have atleast 10/20, if not higher. Cheapest way to get a flight...I have no idea but Korean air business class owns that [censored] turns into a bed. Good flight attendants too.

There is a poker room (albiet small). The only reason I could give people to come to this event is how awesome and fun of a city Seoul is.

[/ QUOTE ] This is a similiar size event to the first EPT tournaments - it's probably better to have good numbers than to have a higher prize pool when you start these things off.
