The Asian Poker Alliance (APSA) is dedicated to promoting the legalization and regulation of poker across Asia, building a sustainable and healthy poker ecosystem. Our vision is to integrate poker into sports and cultural activities across countries through promotion, education, international tournaments, and collaboration, elevating its recognition and status in society and making it a key part of the global mind sports community.
We work closely with governments, sports organizations, media, and sponsors to host international events such as the Asian Cup and the World Cup of Poker, increasing poker’s visibility and accessibility. Through educational programs, we cultivate professional players and coaches, highlighting poker as a game of skill, strategy, and intelligence.
More than just organizing tournaments, APSA aims to drive cultural and legal transformation. Through legal advocacy, public opinion support, and player mobilization, and by working with international poker organizations, we strive to advance poker’s recognition and development across Asia and worldwide.
