The Asia Poker Tour (APT) has confirmed that the next event, planned for March 4-15 in Taipei, Taiwan, will take place as scheduled.
Another poker brand said last week it would not host Asia-Pacific events until May as a new coronavirus alert was issued across the Asia-Pacific region.
A statement on Tuesday quoted APT CEO Jeff Mann as saying there had been "a lot of thought" about the decision to hold in Taiwan given some travel restrictions existed in Asia as part of efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19, the novel coronavirus. The virus outbreak is said to have come from mainland China's Hubei province.
APT said there was "no change" to this year's schedule of 26 individual events for the Taiwan tournament. However, all prize pool guarantees have been removed, and instead of the three originally planned events, it said there would be two start dates for the main event.
"Our biggest concern has been the health and safety of everyone taking part in the event, but after looking at the situation on the ground, the measures being taken by Taiwanese authorities, and the very strict daily health checks that our host partner, the Texas Holdham Poker Club of China (CTP Club), has to implement throughout the event, we felt we did not need to cancel them," Mann said in a statement on Tuesday
He added: "The final decision is the result of customers, who are domestic and international poker players, overwhelmingly voting that APT Taiwan should proceed."
However, the commission acknowledged that due to "travel restrictions" in some countries, organizers did not expect the same "number of international players" as in last year's edition of APT Taiwan. "But local engagement is expected to be strong," Mr Mann said.
Last year, APT Taiwan hosted 3,251 athletes, with a total of 23 individual events, according to a written release on Tuesday.
Other poker events in the Asia-Pacific region will also be moving forward. The PokerStars brand of online poker games and land-based poker tournaments is still promoting the Okada Manila Millions event, which will take place from March 9-15 at the Okada Manila Casino Resort in the capital of the Philippines.
The World Poker Tour (WPT) said last week it was canceling or postponing all Asia-Pacific events until May "given the current uncertainty surrounding the hosting of events in the region" due to disruptions in regional travel caused by the viral pneumonia pathogen.
WPT said it was canceling its poker tournament in Vietnam next month and postponing its first tournament in Taiwan to May.
