WSOP Releases APAC 2014 Schedule

The 2014 WSOP Asia-Pacific takes place in October and features ten gold bracelet events, including some exotic ones like the Terminator No Limit Hold’em tournament.

Last November, Caesars Entertainment announced that the WSOP Europe and WSOP APAC series were going to take place on a rotational basis in the future, each being held in every other year. This year, the Asia-Pacific is up and the WSOPE returns in 2015.

This week, Caesars Entertainment has released the official schedule of the WSOP APAC 2014. From 2 to 18 October, there are ten gold bracelet events running at the Crown Melbourne Casino.

"Bigger and better is the best way to describe the 2014 WSOP Asia-Pacific. New events at modest price points like the Dealer's Choice and Terminator No-Limit Hold’em, plus an expansion of overall events and a move to springtime in Melbourne is designed to encourage the North American and European contingent to make this a can’t-miss event” WSOP Executive Director Ty Stewart commented.

Buy-ins range from A$1,100 to A$25,000. The first event is the A$1,100 No Limit Hold’em Accumulator with three Day 1s and an option for players to participate in any or all of them. If you manage to qualify for Day 2 on multiple Day 1s, your stacks will be merged.

A brand new tournament is the A$1,650 Terminator No Limit Hold’em, where each player has a bounty on them. If you eliminate someone, you get their $500 bounty coin, or Terminator Coin; as a result, even players who do not make it in the money can cash in a nice sum if they go Terminator and eliminate as many opponents as possible.

The WSOP APAC 2014 schedule is as follows:
