Concerns about yet another event being canceled in Vietnam have been laid to rest as the upcoming destination, USOP Hải Phòng, has announced all the necessary permits for the event, paving the way for a highly anticipated return. This marks the first time USOP will land in the port city of Hải Phòng. After the schedules in Hanoi and Da Nang were canceled, USOP Hải Phòng promises to bring an exhilarating atmosphere to the Vietnamese poker community.
USOP has established a solid reputation, becoming one of the most noteworthy brands in Asia. Bringing USOP to Hải Phòng this September will further cement its place in the hearts of fans in Vietnam and across the region. With 66 trophies lined up for this series and a variety of formats, USOP Hải Phòng caters to all players, whether you're a professional or just looking to experience the festive poker atmosphere.
One of the main highlights of the series is undoubtedly the Main Event, boasting a GTD of VND 15,000,000,000, while the entire event offers a GTD of VND 60B (approximately $2.6 million). This substantial prize pool is sure to attract a strong field of players from Vietnam, Taiwan, India, and throughout Asia, setting the stage for an intense and competitive atmosphere.
The decision to bring USOP to Hải Phòng is a strategic one. The port city, rich in culture from its cuisine to its landscapes, will see a significant boost in tourism as a large influx of players descends upon the event. Moreover, this move lays the groundwork for Hải Phòng to potentially become a leading poker hub in Asia.
The permits have been secured
With careful planning and execution, USOP Hải Phòng has the potential to become a milestone event for both the city and the broader Vietnamese poker community. This tournament not only offers players the chance to compete for valuable prizes but also serves as a catalyst for growth and development in the Vietnamese poker industry.
The thought of returning to USOP Hanoi in May-June 2024 was canceled due to regulatory issues. However, this time, all necessary permits have been obtained from the Department of Culture and Sports and the Vietnam Bridge and Poker Sports Association. Players can rest assured as they prepare for an explosive series in Hải Phòng.
