It’s almost island time!

Today, the Asia Pacific Poker Tour announced it’s heading back to the luxurious island of Cebu in the Philippines.

Running May 1 to May 5, the $2,450 APPT Cebu main event will feature two day one flights to kick off the four-day tourney. PokerStars wants to send you there on the cheap.

PokerStars satellite winners will stay at the the swank Shangri-La Mactan Resort just a short drive away from the Waterfront Airport Casino.

APPT President Danny McDonagh is just as excited as everyone else. He said, “I am absolutely delighted to be returning to Cebu. I consider this stop one of the jewels of the APPT series. The poker schedule is excellent and the resort means that away from the felt players can enjoy what I consider to be one of the most luxurious accommodations I have ever stayed at.”

Oh, and the player party is usually something to behold.
