Inaugural Vietnam Poker Cup at Ho Tram Resort Casino Announced
Shaun McCamley, President of Ho Tram Resort Casino and Andrew W Scott, CEO of World Players Entertainment (WPE) – poker operations partner of the Ho Tram Resort Casino – announced the inaugural Vietnam Poker Cup (VPC) will be held at Ho Tram Resort Casino from August 21 to 23, 2015.
With the VPC set to become an ongoing series run multiple times each year, VPC1 will feature a USD550 buy-in Main Event and a USD1,100 High Roller tournament and other events with buy-ins ranging from USD55 to USD275.
Making this special announcement from the floor of the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas, Mr Scott said, “This is the beginning of something that will last for many years to come. The Vietnam Poker Cup is a historic event with the winner’s name to forever be etched in glory.
“It is also a major milestone for Ho Tram Resort Casino as Vietnam’s first home grown poker event and while it is open to all holders of non-Vietnamese passports we are sure it will become a must-play event for those non-Vietnamese passport holders living in Ho Chi Minh City and elsewhere throughout Vietnam.”
The inaugural Vietnam Poker Cup will be sponsored by Ho Chi Minh City-based poker training and media website SoMuchPoker.com.
Ho Tram Resort Casino’s five star hotel, The Grand, is offering a discounted poker player rate of USD119 per night (USD139 per night with international five star buffet breakfast). Both rates include free WiFi internet access throughout the entire Ho Tram Resort Casino complex.
