After a resounding success in 2007, the Asian Poker Classic will be back in 2008, and it hopes to attract a bigger field than last year.

The APC was the richest poker tournament ever staged in India when it was held for the very first time, in Goa, in March 2007. Now it has been confirmed that the event will return to Goa in March 2008 – venue to be announced.

At the inaugural tourney more than 140 players turned out from more than a dozen countries around the world, all vying for their share of the $1 million prize pot.
