The rewards waiting for GTCC aspirants

The latest GameZone Tablegame Champions Cup (GTCC), the Summer Showdown, has brought a trickle of excitement to Tongits aficionados. 

With a breathtaking prize pool of Php 10 million, it presented an opportunity for aspirants to change their lives while playing the card game they adored. 

The upcoming GTCC Philippines, September Arena promises to provide the same level of thrill and prizes as its predecessor.

Consequently, let’s explore the list of prizes up for grabs for GTCC Tongits  aspirants. 

Grand Prize fit for the GTCC Tongits King

Similar to the Summer Showdown’s prize pool, the upcoming GTCC tournament is set to splurge a Php 10 million prize pool. 

The biggest among the list of rewards is the grand prize, waiting to be claimed by the worthy champion.

The exchange for their effort and mastery is a momentous Php 5 million. 

For the previous version of the Tongits tournament, Benigno De Guzman Casayuran bagged the same amount that he allocated for the recovery of his partner.

The finalists’ exceptional compensation

While the grand prize remains as the sought-after reward in the GTCC Tongits tournament, the incentives of his/her fellow finalists are also not too shabby.

For the 2nd placer, or first runner-up, Game Zone casino will provide a Php 1 million reward.

This prize is similar to what the Summer Showdown’s Ryan Dacalos received.

Meanwhile, for the 3rd placer, the reward was upped from Php 488,000 to Php 500,000. 

How to enter the GTCC: September Arena

Identical to the Summer Showdown, September Arena will employ two stages in filtering the right participants in the GTCC Tongits tournament.

First is through the Tongits Free Multi-Table Tournament. Tongits MTT is a daily online tongits competition in GameZone casino.

From this stage, players can receive tickets to be used in the next round, the Online Finals. 

The Online Finals will serve as the last phase of the qualifiers.

All ticket holders will battle it out to determine the worthy players who will advance to the offline event happening in September.

Key dates to remember for aspirants

If you are vying for a slot to enter the upcoming GTCC Philippines, there are dates you should not miss.

Additionally, this timeline can be utilized as your GTCC preparation step-by-step.

First is the daily tournament of Tongits MTT, which will run from July 7 to August 23.

You will have an opportunity 24/7 to claim your mark to reach the leaderboard.

Meanwhile, the weekly tournament will start on July 22. It will only be available every weekend at three time slots: 7, 8, and 9 PM.

Once you collect a ticket from Tongits MTT, you will advance to the Online Finals happening on August 24 to 31.

It will be composed of three stages to identify the official list of aspirants for the GTCC tournament.

The history of GTCC tournament

Game Zone Tablegame Champions Cup started with the vision of GameZone casino to create a Tongits tournament for elite players. 

Where they can flaunt their card game mastery and wits while receiving a bountiful reward.

What transpired was the first version of the tournament with the Tongits Champion Cup in December 2024. 

But GameZone online expanded and brought its dream to greater heights by rebranding the TCC into GTCC in 2025.

Along with the fresh name is the amplified prize pool.

The first official version of the tournament this year was the Summer Showdown, an event that set a Php 10 million prize pool.

Fast forward to the present, the GTCC Philippines is now in its second course with September Arena.

The Tongits tournament matched the intensity of the earlier 205 tournament with a similar prize pool.

GameZone online is determined to introduce aspiring players to the hidden fun of the GTCC Tongits game.
