Last Chance For Apt Philippines Seats At Titan Poker & Celeb Poker

Posted on 08/14/2010 by giorgio

The Philippines stop on the 2010 Asian Poker Tour is almost upon us, docking August 23rd through 29th, which means there are only a couple of weeks left to win free tickets in the APT Philippines 2010 main event at two leading poker sites – Titan Poker and Celeb Poker.

These are the last chances players will get to win free 2010 APT Philippines main event tickets at Titan Poker and Celeb Poker. To reiterate some of the crucial information on these satellites that we’ve previously mentioned in case you still want to take your shot at an all-expenses (or most-expenses) paid trip to Manila to play against some of poker’s finest:

The 2010 APT Philippines prize packages from both Celeb Poker and Titan Poker are worth $5,500 each – each with 6 nights in luxury accommodations, about two grand in spending cash (helpful in getting those flights), and of course the $2,500 + $200 main event buy-in.

Where Celeb Poker and Titan Poker differ in their 2010 APT Philippines satellites is in the tournament structure. Celeb Poker’s is simpler but more restrictive, Titan Poker’s by turn is more complex but also allows for greater choice in how you climb to the top and grab one of those $5,500 APT Philippines prize packages for yourself.

The Celeb Poker APT Philippines satellite structure involves a three stage ladder with a variety of buy-ins, most of the events rebuy/add-on events. The Titan Poker APT Philippines satellite structure gives players three different choices of paths to follow to a variety of Super Satellite finals exclusive to each path. Within each Titan Poker satellite structure are both Sit & Go and MTT ladders to climb, both with a variety of buy-ins.

Whichever path you take, or if you decide to try every one available, you’d better hurry. Only two weeks of Celeb Poker and Titan Poker satellites into the 2010 APT Philippines main event in Manila remain.
