Fresh off the epic Manila Super Series 21 is jumping right back in with a festival that’ll keep you on your toes from February 1st to 9th, 2025. We’re talking nine days, 33 electrifying events, and endless chances to rack up those big wins.
And guess what?
This is just the first stop of a year full of poker madness, with at least seven more events coming your way. So, strap in—it’s about to get wild!
Manila Super Series 21: Your Platform To Shine
Just a few days will see the start of PokerStars LIVE Manila Super Series 21, and the buzz is already developing. This is one of the most awaited poker events of the year, with a huge PHP 21,000,000 (~USD 360,080) prize pool assured across the festival. With a headline-grabbing PHP 10,000,000 (~USD 180,000) on offer, the main event is back and better than ever. It’s not only about the big money; the show guarantees a fresh set of events challenging your abilities in yet unseen ways. You won’t want to miss out on exciting variations.
Bigger Prizes, Bigger Action: Main Event
The Manila Super Series 21 Main Event is your pass to glory if you want to establish yourself and claim your fair part of that luscious prize pool. With a somewhat lower buy-in of PHP 18,500 (~USD 320), the PHP 10,000,000 guarantee from last year will seem even more accessible to participants of all stripes. However, this is not the case for everyone; if you have limited funds, rest assured! Starting at little PHP 2,700 (~USD 45), there are milestone satellites making it simpler than ever to get a ticket in the Main Event without going broke.
The Main Event will surely be a generational clash. It doubled the prize pool last year with a record-breaking 1,277 entrants; that figure is projected to rise. Walking off with a PHP 3.5 million (~USD 60,870), Japan’s Chogo Kento was the man of the hour. After nearly securing a decisive victory at the Manila Megastack, we anticipate Kento to return this year and confidently defend his championship.
Ensured Fun, Guaranteed Action
Apart from the Main Event, PokerStars LIVE Manila is resurrecting many fan-favorite events with their own guarantee and lots of action. With buy-ins ranging from PHP 5,000 (~USD 85) to PHP 35,000 (~USD 600), there is something for everyone, so regardless of your expertise level, you may discover an event fit for your style.
Beginning on February 1st, the Kickoff event provides a PHP 2,000,000 (~USD 34,295) guarantee for a buy-in of just PHP 12,500 (~USD 211). From then on, daily events such as Superstack, Turbo, Mystery Bounty, and more will just intensify the action! Additionally, there is a Survivor Knockout [25K Bounty] event with furious action and even more significant rewards.
