That's a wrap!
Today was a whirlwind day for poker in the Philippines. APPT Cebu managed to pass even the wildest of expectations with 213 players coming to felt for day 1b.
That gave us a total of 319 players, 19 more than the cap for the event, creating a prize pool of around US$600,000 and setting a new record for biggest tournament held in the Philippines.
A lot of the big names fell early including Eric Assadourian, Aaron Benton, Dennis Huntly, and Neil Arce.
The play was slow from about the middle of the day, but at the end we had three huge stacks emerge in Brian Bumpas (143,000), Jerry Delisle (135,000), and Mike Gaertner (128,100).
Day two action gets underway from noon. Be sure to join us for all the action.
