KPC Poker Jeju Sets October Dates with New Satellite Path to King’s Main Event and Added High Roller Package

KPC Poker returns to Jeju from October 10-21 at LES A Casino in Jeju Shinhwa World. The rebranded tour, formed by the merger of K Poker Cup and King Poker Cup, guarantees ₩3.1 billion (approximately $2.3 million) in its first major festival under the new banner.

Updated details include a two-stage satellite for the $15,000 King’s Main Event, a new high roller package after the original offer sold out, three separate Player of the Series races, complimentary airport transfers, and live streaming coverage. The schedule opens October 10 with the ₩800,000 KPC Bankroll Builder (₩180 million guarantee) and the $5,000 King’s Debut ($1 million guaranteed).

Stairs Satellite Provides Tiered Entry to $15,000 King’s Main Event

The $15,000 King’s Main Event runs October 17-20 with two starting flights. The new Stairs Satellite begins with Stage 1 on October 15 at 7:30 p.m. for a ₩1.1 million buy-in. Players who reach the money earn a Stage 2 ticket plus cash.

Stage 2 follows on October 16 at 7:30 p.m. with a ₩3.15 million buy-in. Those who qualify receive a $15,000 seat in the King’s Main Event along with additional cash. Exact cash prizes at both stages will be confirmed on site. This structure returns value at each step rather than only at the final qualification.

High Roller Packages, Series Races, and Broadcast Plans

The original $70,000 High Roller package has sold out. KPC Poker added a $100,000 Ultimate Elite Package; interested players should contact the VIP service for details. The high-stakes slate includes the $60,000 King’s Super High Roller, multiple $25,000 Single Day Super High Rollers, the $20,000 Crown Hunt, the $15,000 King’s Main Event, and the $30,000 Final Coronation.

Three Player of the Series races cover KRW events, High Rollers, and Mixed Games. KRW requires three cashes for eligibility; the winner receives a custom Rose Gold Bracelet and $2,000 in Player Wallet credit. High Rollers need two cashes for a custom Gold Ring and $10,000 to the winner. Mixed Games require three cashes for a custom Gold Bracelet and $2,000 credit. All monetary awards are paid as Player Wallet Deposits.

Free airport transfers run October 9-10 for arrivals and October 16-17 for departures. Premium and $100,000 package holders receive flexible timing. Streaming begins October 11-21 across KPC Poker’s YouTube channel and 17 POKER QQ Live with commentators Wesley Chen, Bobby James, Aaron Paul Kramer, and Jin Bo, as reported by PokerNews. The mixed games schedule includes Omaha Mix, Triple Draw Mix, Drawmaha, Stud Mix, Big O, and 2-7 variants plus a ₩2 million Poker Players Championship on October 16.
