200 APT Championship Main Event Satellite Tickets Must Be Won For Free

The Asian Poker Tour (APT) Championship 2026 takes place at The Red Space Taipei, Taiwan, between November 13-29. With a cool $8.1 million guaranteed across its bustling schedule, the APT Championship 2026 is not to be missed.

Excitement is significantly ramping up for one tournament in particular: the $10,000 buy-in APT Championship Main Event, which boasts an impressive $5 million guarantee on its prize pool. Last year’s Championship event paid out $6,192,637, and with the massive fields the APT has enjoyed in 2026, an even larger pot could be created for the upcoming event.

PokerNews has teamed up with GGPoker and Natural8 to bring you an exclusive freeroll with 200x $12 satellite tickets up for grabs. That freeroll shuffles up and deals at 7:00 p.m. GMT on October 31.

Register for the PokerNews Freeroll to APTC 2026, bring your A-game to the tables, and if you finish in the top 200 places, a $12 Step to $90 APT Championship Taipei Satellite ticket will land in your account.

This special freeroll is available to players who can access GGPoker or Natural8.
