The Gods of Poker Arena continues its journey across Asia, setting the stage for a special moment in Taipei in just a few days. On November 9, 2025, the Chinese Texas Hold’em Poker Club (CTP) is set to host a single-day feature event, where the first-ever GOP Arena trophy will be awarded in Taiwan.
This landmark occasion highlights GOP's commitment to strengthening the Asian poker community through collaboration and shared passion. It celebrates local talent, honors longstanding partnerships, and reflects the mutual pursuit of excellence between both parties. Recognized as the heart of Taiwan’s live-poker scene, CTP provides the perfect stage for the Arena’s arrival in the city.
“CTP has long been a cornerstone of Taiwan’s poker community,” said GOP Founder Lloyd Fontillas. “Bringing the Arena experience to Taipei is a celebration of partnership, pride, and the players who make this region one of the strongest in Asia.”
For Gods of Poker, the Arena is more than just a tournament. It’s a firsthand experience that brings players, cultures, and stories together, and importantly, a preview of what lies ahead for the brand’s journey across the region.

The GOP Arena Event unfolds this Sunday, 1:00 PM at the Asia Poker Arena, as a single-day showcase with a NTD 2,500 (USD 80) buy-in and a NTD 300,000 (USD 9,700) guarantee. Aside from the title, a newly unveiled trophy is on the line — a gleaming black silver-plated Spartan warrior clutching a lightning-engraved shield, symbolizing skill, endurance, and pride as it marks a new milestone for the city’s vibrant poker community.
In addition to the top prize and the coveted hardware, the winner will also earn a GOP Jeju Main Event Package, valued at NTD 52,000 (~USD 1,680), opening the door to the global stage. Built for both seasoned players and ambitious newcomers, the event promises a fast-paced yet balanced structure that mirrors the spirit and excitement of the GOP journey.
Package includes:
This custom-designed package for CTP members ensures a smooth journey from Taipei to Jeju, complete with premium accommodation, hospitality, and a team experience that extends beyond the tables.

Located in the heart of Taipei, the Asia Poker Arena is the largest dedicated poker venue in Taiwan and one of the most renowned destinations in the region. Home to CTP, it stands as the center of Taiwan’s poker movement, bringing together skill, strategy, and community under one roof.

With over 50 tables, professional facilities, and a modern design, the Arena hosts many of Asia’s most prestigious tournaments. It continues to serve as the proving ground for new champions and a hub where the region’s poker culture thrives.
📍 Address: No. 67, Section 2, Nanjing East Road, Zhongshan District, Taipei, Taiwan

As the Gods of Poker Arena blazes through Taipei, the journey continues toward the next great battleground — The Titan Assembly, set to take place at the same venue from January 8 to 18, 2026.
Carrying a new wave of mythology-inspired events and record-breaking prize pools, The Titan Assembly will mark the first full-scale Gods of Poker series on Taiwanese soil. Players can look forward to the signature Cronus Structure, High Roller battles worthy of Olympus, and an atmosphere where every hand feels like a clash between legends.
From the Arena to the Assembly, the path of the Gods only grows stronger.
The call is coming — and the Titans are waiting.
