History
Asian Poker Tour (APT) was founded in 2006 by Capital Events Pte – a company based in Singapore .
In 2008 APT was acquired by AsianLogic but Capital Events Pte will continue to run the tour, which recently added the Korean Professional Poker Tour and remains a shareholder. The agreement will see AsianLogic manage the running of the APT's online and land-based tournaments, as well as taking control of the APT's brand and URLs giving the company access to the APT database, which it hopes will help drive players to its poker sites.[ 5]
In June 2022, APT Events Private Limited bought the Asian Poker Tour is set to expand its presence outside of Asia .[ 6] APT veteran Lloyd Fontillas will, however, continue in his capacity as General Manager & Executive Tournament Director, with added responsibilities.[ 7]

2016
2016 is APT' s busiest year to date with 14 APT events and 1 APT-accredited event staged in a year. In the beginning of the year, APT started offering the APT Main Event Bubble Protection which insured the players availing it by giving back the Main Event buy-in in the form of APT tournament credits when the insured player busts out on the bubble. To avail of the bubble protection, players must pre-register for the Main Event, draw for a seat before starting time, and have his/her chips put into play on the first deal of level.
Changes in the winnings distribution of the APT Player of the Year ('APT POY') has also been made. The second and third place awards have been eliminated and $2,000 worth of APT prizes were awarded to each APT POY leader from the Philippines , Japan , South Korea , China , and one for the top nationality outside of those countries mentioned. The overall APT POY 2016 still received $10,000 worth of APT prizes. A total of $20,000 worth of APT prizes has been awarded for the APT POY 2016 race.
This was also the year when Sam Razavi was dethroned by Iori Yogo after four years of APT POY reign.
