Written by Ben Blaschke

In a first for the Ho Tram Poker Room, renowned online poker site 888poker will run a special satellite next Saturday 8 August in which players can win a seat to the inaugural Vietnam Poker Cup (VPC) Main Event.

Vietnam’s first truly home grown event, the VPC will be held at the luxurious Ho Tram Resort Casino from 21 to 23 August with the US$550 Main Event kicking off on 22 August.

But 888poker is offering Asian-based players the chance to win their seat for just US$55. The satellite starts at 20:00 Vietnam time, or 21:00 Macau time, next Saturday 8 August.

That’s right, 8pm on the 8th of the 8th – not just 888 but also super lucky!

Players can take part by clicking on the 888poker logo below and either signing into their 888poker account (existing customers) or creating a new account and clicking on “All Games”, then “Tournaments”, then “Restricted”, then “Vietnam Poker Cup 2015” as shown in the above photo.

Ho Tram Resort Casino is Vietnam’s only integrated resort, located alongside a stunning 2.2 kilometer beach and boasting 5 star facilities including nearly a dozen restaurants and a Greg Norman-designed golf course, The Bluffs Ho Tram Strip, which was named one of the world’s eight best new courses of 2014 by GOLF magazine USA.
