BrandedUp in partnership with Casino Plus
Casino Plus, one of the country’s leading responsible digital entertainment platforms licensed by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation, has officially launched the 2026 Baccarat Grand Championship.
The Baccarat Grand Championship is a five-month competitive campaign organized in partnership with Bingo Plus and LaVie Resort & Casino, where players can expect a prize pool of up to P41.3 million.
The monthly finals will run from July to October, with the top three players from each leg advancing to the live Grand Finals on November 28.
For Casino Plus, the new championship reflects the platform’s continued commitment to elevating competitive digital entertainment while maintaining strong standards for responsible gaming, player protection, and regulated play.
“With the Baccarat Grand Championship, we are connecting the scale of online competition with the excitement and prestige of a live finals event. This is where the industry is headed. Players expect experiences that are seamless, accessible, and trusted across both digital and physical environments,” said Casino Plus CEO Evan Spytma.
“As we continue to elevate regulated entertainment, responsible gaming remains at the center. Player protection is not just a compliance requirement for us. It is built into every stage of the player experience”, Spytma added.
The 2026 Baccarat Grand Championship gives players the opportunity to qualify through consistent play from July to October. The structured qualification format is designed to reward top-performing players and build momentum leading into the November Grand Finals.
The Grand Finals will bring together qualified players, VIP guests, brand ambassadors, and entertainment personalities for a live championship event at LaVie Resort & Casino.
Building on Casino Plus’ previous live tournament experience, the finals are expected to feature premium hospitality, curated entertainment, exclusive guest experiences, and a competitive live showdown for another Baccarat Grand Championship title.
The 2026 Baccarat Grand Championship follows the success of the Second Baccarat Tournament Grand Finals held on January 31, 2026, at Newport World Resorts in Manila, where Casino Plus staged one of the country’s biggest live baccarat tournament events with a P52 million total prize pool and a P30 million champion prize.
