A tasting menu from APT Jeju's feast of 135 different tournaments

It’s not just high rollers, and it’s not just hold’em; APT Jeju promises a scratch for every itch.

Here’s our guided selection to the treats on offer, broken down day-by-day (the complete tournament schedule can be found here).

All three Lion Trophy tournaments broke records at the previous APT Jeju stop.

September 25

The first day of the series is a great opportunity for high rollers to hit the ground running. A $3.3K single day high roller (event #3) and an $1.1K turbo high roller (event #5) will both be done and dusted by bedtime. A good run here could set you up for the series.

On the cheaper end of the spectrum, a $550 limit triple draw mix (event #4) would be our pick for those wanting to try the APT’s famous array of mixed games.

September 26

The $900 Mystery Bounty Hunter — sponsored by Natural8 (event #9) gets underway with a huge guaranteed prizepool of $300K. Three separate starting flights all kick off, spaced out throughout the day.

There’s also Day 1 of the $11K APT Super High Roller (event #10), which will award at least $370K.

September 27

The highlight has to be the first of four starting flights in the $2K Main Event (event #19), which has a massive $1.6M guarantee.

There’s also another single day high roller, this time a $3.2K buy-in with a mystery bounty element (event #21), while the $150 turbo NLO Double Board Bomb Pot (event #26) sounds like just enough chaos to be unmissable fun.

135 events over the series averages out at 10+ tournaments per day.

September 28

The $220 heads-up women’s event (event #31) should be a fascinating showpiece, while players with deep pockets have the option of either the $3.3K High Roller — Ultra Stack (event #33) or the $1K NLH Freezeout — sponsored by the Japan Open Poker Tour (event #32).

For those with even deeper pockets, the $27K Superstar Challenge (event #35) also starts today.

September 29

The $1.1K 9-Game Mix (event #45) features everything from hold’em to PLO, stud, 2-7 and more, while the $600 Women’s Main Event (event #47) also kicks off today.

Elsewhere there is PLO (event #48), Single Draw (event #50), Win The Button (event #51) and more Double Board Bomb Pot action (event #53).

September 30

Had enough of these fancy new variants? If that’s the case, make your way to the $1.1K Masters Fixed Limit Draw tournament (event #55), where poker is still played the way it was way back when.

Not had enough? There’s a $370 NLO Cry Me a River tourney (event #58), a $330 no-limit stud mix tournament (event #60) and a $220 Tick Tock BOOM! Tournament (event #61), where levels decrease in length every hour.

Whatever will they think of next?

It's hard to take yourself too seriously when playing a game called 'Atomic Pineapple'.

October 1

For the answer to that question, check out the $370 Atomic Pineapple tourney (event #71). You’re dealt five cards but discard one after every betting round.

More twists? No problem. Try the $550 pot-limit Super Hold’em (event #70) — that’s the hold’em you know and love, with an extra hole card thrown in.

Fewer twists? You’re good here too. There’s a $900 heads-up event (event #64) and the $2.7K Zodiac Classic sponsored by Natural8 (event #66), which has a $370K guarantee and runs for two days.

October 2

If you’re not still in the Zodiac Classic you’ll be right in time for Flight A of the $1.1K Mini Main Event (event #74) with $222K GTD. There’s also a $450 hold’em teams tourney (event #76, and that’s $900 for a team of two) and the $2.2K 9-Game High Roller (event #77).

There’s also the $5.5K Baby Superstar Challenge (event #78), while there will surely be some madcap fun to be had in the $330 no-limit hi/lo Dealer’s Choice game (event #82).

October 3

Open-Face Chinese Poker players don’t often get a shot at a big tourney score, but that’s just what’s planned in the $900 OFC heads-up tournament (event #86).

Both the Main Event and the Mini Main will be drawing to a close, but the $3.7K APT High Roller (event #87) will just be getting going. The evening also brings a $220 NLH Double Board Bomb Pot All-in-or-Fold tournament (event #95).

Chang Hwan Lee won the most recent APT High Roller, in Incheon.

October 4

A good day for mixed game players, with the $1.1K Masters Dealer Choice (event #97) in the early afternoon, and the $370 turbo no-limit 8-Game (event #104) later that night.

In between there’s a $4.4K single day high roller (event #99) and the start of the $1.1K Baby Zodiac Classic sponsored by Natural8 (event #100), among other treats.

October 5

With the Main and Mini Main all done, it’s time for the $550 Micro Main Event (event #109) — see? We told you there was something for everyone.

To further illustrate that point, the late night start is a $330 ROSET no-limit hyper-turbo (event #116), mixing razz, Omaha hi/lo, stud, stud hi/lo and 2-7 triple draw.

October 6

How do you make Big O even bigger? With an ‘ocean’, that’s how — otherwise known as a 6th community card. How does that work? Find out in the $550 Big O Oceans tourney (event #119).

In addition to a $5.5K single day high roller (event #120) there are also four turbo tournaments kicking off after dinner time, for those who really like to get their money’s worth.

October 7

It’s also turbo time on the festival’s final day, as players take their last swings like there’s no tomorrow.

Everything after 5pm will be a turbo tournament, while earlier on you’ll have the chance to play the aptly-named $330 Closer (event #128) and $2.8K Last Chance High Roller (event #129).
