APT INCHEON 2025 SCHEDULE| OFFICIAL RESULTS | PLAYER LISTS | IMAGES | WINNERS
INCHEON, SOUTH KOREA, AUGUST 6, 2025– Event #53: High Roller drew an impressive 175 entries, generating a fierce two-day contest among some of the region’s most seasoned pros and high rollers. With only 23 players guaranteed a payout, and a top prize of KRW 105,450,000 (~USD 75,800) awaiting the winner, the pressure is mounting as 41 players return for the Final Day.
Yuya Arito of Japan enters the Final Day as the commanding chip leader, bagging a towering 1,450,000 in chips—nearly double the count of his closest rival. Arito, a well-travelled grinder in the poker scene, is on the brink of crossing USD 700,000 in live earnings, and a deep run could very well break that barrier.
Congya Zhang, representing China, sits in second place with a healthy 795,000 in chips. Already an APT champion, Zhang is looking to claim her second title. A win here would guarantee her largest career score to date.
Dylan Wayne Foster of Australia rounds out the top three with 758,000 in chips. A familiar face at APT stops, Foster will be looking for redemption after missing out in Event #31: High Roller – Ultra Stack, failing to reach the final table after starting as one of the chip leaders. Foster remains a serious threat to make another final table appearance—and this time, he’ll be hungrier for his first APT title.
Here are the top chipstacks going into the Final Day tomorrow:
