Do you feel that you are missing out on online poker tournaments with great structures and large guarantees just because you live in a time zone that is outside of online poker's prime time? Does your personal schedule limit the time you can dedicate to playing poker tournaments to the early hours or during a typical western working day? If so, WPT Global has the answer.

WPT Global invites you to get in the zone and participate in its WPT Daily Asia tournaments. The WPT Daily Asia schedule consists of 26 excellent multi-table tournaments running between 5:05 a.m. UTC and 5:40 p.m. UTC, which makes them perfect for poker players living in Asian time zones, European's who don't typically work a traditional 9-to-5, or Canadian and South American night owls!

The buy-ins and guarantees for the WPT Daily Asia tournaments are displayed in Japanese Yen. However, the WPT Global software allows you to switch these amounts to US Dollars with a couple of mouse clicks. For the record, there are approximately 150 Japanese Yen to 1 US Dollar.

WPT Daily Asia tournaments have buy-ins from ¥11 to ¥220, with a wide range of options between those extremes. Every tournament has a guarantee on its prize pool, with those guarantees starting at ¥2,500 and increasing to ¥30,000 or ¥75,000 on Sundays.

The biggest guarantee is reserved for the ¥220 WPT Daily Asia Hyper PKO Rumble Main at 1:30 p.m. UTC. It boasts a ¥30,000 guarantee during the week, with WPT Global upping the ante and guaranteeing ¥75,000 each Sunday.
