Congratulations to Dong-bin Han on the tremendous achievement of winning the biggest ever tournament held in the Philippines.

Han had to overcome a field of 319 to take down the title. His method may have been a little unorthodox at times, but it got the result.

He came into heads up play even with David Hilton, but after ten hands it became pretty clear that he was going to win the day. He played a far more aggressive game than Hilton and even after doubling his opponent up multiple times, he never lost control of the battle.

Han becomes the first Korean player to win an event on the PokerStars.net Asia Pacific Poker Tour. He'll surely pave the way for a Korean invasion on the circuit.

The next stop on the tour is the Sydney Grand Final event and PokerNews will be live from the floor between December 1-6. Until then farewell.
