Mabuhay from APPT Cebu!

Welcome back to the penultimate stop of season four of the PokerStars.net Asia Pacific Poker Tour (APPT) live from Cebu, Philippines!
The Shangri-La’s Mactan Resort & Spa plays host to an event that is regarded more of a holiday than a place to win a fortune on the felt – and just taking one look outside the hotel balcony confirms the reason why everyone regards this stop as one in paradise.
From the white-sand beaches, to the deckchair-surrounded pool. The abundance of available water sports to the relaxing day spa . . . anything and everything is available here.
But wait. Isn’t there a tournament to be played?
Last year saw 319 players take to the felt to battle it out in arguably one of the world’s most beautiful poker destinations as Korean Dong-bin Han collected PHP$7,410,000 (approximately US$156,722) for his first-place effort.
With plenty of players from not only the Philippines, Asia and the rest of the world arriving into town, there is a great chance that last years PHP$29,086,420 prizepool may be eclipsed by the combined Day 1a and 1b fields.
The PokerNews Live Reporting team will be again on the floor to provide the exclusive live coverage from the APPT Cebu Main Event – so make sure that you are glued to the screen to find out who will be crowned the fourth champion of season four from 12:15 pm PHT.
