APT JEJU 2025 SCHEDULE| OFFICIAL RESULTS | PLAYER LISTS | IMAGES | WINNERS

JEJU, SOUTH KOREA, October 1, 2025– The two-day High Roller at APT Jeju 2025 delivered one of the most exciting opening sessions of the festival, drawing an impressive 260 entries to generate a prize pool of KRW 898 million. With only 90 survivors progressing to Day 2, the stakes are rising quickly as players edge closer to the final table.

Leading the way is Iulian Blebea of Romania, who closed Day 1 with an imposing 990,000 in chips. With more than USD 1 million in career live earnings, Blebea has proven to have the pedigree and has already picked up one cash earlier in this festival, and now, armed with the chip lead, he is well-positioned to make a serious run at his first APT title.

In second place is China’s Chuan Feng, who bagged a strong 903,000 chip stack. A determined grinder with a reputation for consistency, Feng has also recorded a cash earlier in Jeju. With chips to manoeuvre and experience under his belt, Feng will be looking to seize his moment and turn this promising position into his maiden APT victory.

Rounding out the top three is another Chinese contender, Wen Chao Liu, who finished the day with 843,000 in chips. Similar with Feng, Liu has also already found success in the festival with a prior cash. Entering Day 2 near the top of the counts, Liu now has a real opportunity to push for his first significant APT result.
