A New Name Is Dealing Into Asian Poker: Infinity Poker to Make Its International Debut at Paradise City in March 2027
The 10-day inaugural festival in Incheon, South Korea, will feature a KRW 600 million guaranteed Main Event, a 114-event schedule and a vision to build a stronger, more connected global poker community.
A new chapter in Asian poker is about to begin. Infinity Poker, an emerging international poker tournament brand run from the UAE, has announced its inaugural festival, Infinity Poker Incheon 2027, taking place from March 5-14, 2027, at Paradise City, Incheon, South Korea.
Marking the brand's entry into the international poker tournament landscape, the 10-day festival will feature a KRW 600 million guaranteed Main Event, with a buy-in of KRW 1.5 million. With an ambitious tournament programme, industry collaborations and a player-first philosophy at its core, Infinity Poker aims to establish itself as a new platform for competitive poker, meaningful connections and a community that extends far beyond the tables.
The Incheon festival marks the first chapter of a larger journey, with Infinity Poker planning a total of three tournaments across Asia in 2027. Details of the other two events will be announced shortly.
More Than a Tournament: Building a Community Around the Game
At a time when poker continues to bring together players across markets, generations and levels of experience, Infinity Poker is entering the scene with an ambition that goes beyond tournament operations. Its vision is to create a recognisable international brand that champions the game, nurtures its community and delivers an experience built around the people who play it.
From established professionals and high rollers to emerging talent and recreational players, Infinity Poker aims to create opportunities for players at different stages of their poker journey to compete, connect and grow within the game.
“Asia is home to some of the most passionate and competitive poker players in the world, and they deserve a platform that matches their ambition. Infinity Poker is built to raise the bar for the Asian poker scene, bringing together exceptional competition, ambitious guarantees, thoughtfully designed formats, and world-class festival experiences. Our vision is to build more than a tournament series; we want to create a community, a culture, and a platform that players across the world are proud to be part of,” said Rajvi Makol, CEO of Infinity Poker.
This philosophy will extend beyond the tournament floor. Infinity Poker intends to build a consistent identity across its events, creating a community that grows with every festival and giving players more reasons to return, participate and become part of the brand's journey.
Paradise City: The Beginning of the Infinity Poker Journey
The choice of Paradise City, Incheon, as the venue for Infinity Poker's inaugural festival marks the beginning of the brand's international ambitions. The collaboration brings together Infinity Poker's vision for a new tournament platform and Paradise City's commitment to delivering an exceptional guest experience.
Commenting on the partnership, Patrick Sangbae Jeon, Director of Poker Marketing at JST, said, “We are delighted to welcome new players to Paradise City through this exciting partnership. We look forward to providing an exceptional experience for our guests, strengthening industry relationships, and creating new opportunities for continued growth and collaboration.”
Infinity Poker will also collaborate with Pokerfors for the Incheon tournament, alongside industry partners including SoMuchPoker, Luxon Pay and more.
Adding a distinct identity to the festival, SoMuchPoker will serve as the Official Media Partner and launch its first flagship tournament event with Infinity Poker: the SoMuchPoker Championship. Opening the festival, the championship will feature a KRW 50 million guaranteed prize pool, bringing an additional highlight to the inaugural series.
Online satellite schedules for Road to Infinity will be announced shortly, providing players with another route to qualify for the festival.
The People Behind the Vision
Infinity Poker brings together a founding team with complementary backgrounds in competitive poker, entrepreneurship, filmmaking, luxury marketing and hospitality. This combination of player insight and brand-building experience informs the company's ambition to create a tournament platform that balances competitive integrity with a distinctive festival experience.
Rajvi Makol, Founder and CEO, brings the perspective of a tournament player alongside entrepreneurial experience in real estate and e-commerce. His vision is to build a poker brand that understands the ambitions of its players while creating opportunities for the wider community.
Savya Ansh, a filmmaker and poker player, brings creative storytelling capabilities and an understanding of poker culture, helping shape how the brand communicates the people, competition and experiences that define its festivals.
