NagaWorld Integrated Resort in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, is putting the final preparations for the upcoming World Poker Tour (WPT) Cambodia Championship. The luxury resort plays host to first WPT stop of 2025 from February 6 through to February 24. The bustling schedule includes the year’s first WPT Prime leg.

WPT Prime Cambodia Championship is a $1,100 buy-in no-limit hold’em tournament boasting a $750,000 guaranteed prize pool. It features a trio of Day 1s, each shuffling up at 11:30 a.m. local time on February 14-16. Day 2 and the final day also start at 11:30 a.m. local time, doing so on February 17 and February 18, respectively.

Whether they buy in directly for $1,100, win a live satellite, or use WPT Global Passport Dollars to enter the WPT Prime Cambodia Championship, players sit down with a 40,000 starting stack, and play to a 40-minute clock where the blinds start at 100/200 with a 200 big blind ante. Levels extend to 60 minutes on Day 2 and Day 3, before reverting to 30 minutes when the tournament reaches its heads-up stage.

Late registration closes at the start of Level 10. By that stage, the blinds will be moving into 1,000/2,500 and a 2,000 big blind ante. Unlimited re-entries are permitted until late registration slams shut, and play continues on each flight until the players reach the money; approximately 12.5% of the field is paid.

The table below shows the blind structure while late registration is available.

Another Huge Crowd Expected for the 2025 WPT Prime Cambodia Championship

WPT Prime stopped in Cambodia in March 2023; it was a roaring success. A field of 1,011 entries smashed the $500,000 guarantee by $470,270. The top 128 finishers, including Roman Hrabec, Frank Lillis, and Brad Owen, received a slice of the pie.

The eight finalists each banked at least $20,660. Lewis Cowell busted in eighth for that prize, with Feng Chua ($26,510), Sho Katsura ($34,400), Jose Catela (45,120), and Charlie Chiu ($59,820) following Cowell to the cashier’s desk.

A deal was struck with only three players remaining, which guaranteed each of them a six-figure haul. Frenchman Matthieu Lamagnere bowed out in third for $112,247 before Mai Bien ($117,842) lost a heads-up battle against Japan’s Kono Reiji ($121,331).
