Ivey, Dwan, Cates Playing Nosebleed Cash Games Here in Manila

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

This Spring the Macau-based Poker King Club took over operations inside the poker room at Solaire Casino, just down the street from City of Dreams where APPT Manila is being held.

This led to much speculation as to whether the famed nosebleed cash games in Macau, featuring some of world's top pros and weathiest Asian businessmen, might make a move to the Philippines. PokerNews can now confirm that has happened.

Today, PokerNews' Caitlyn Howe talked with Poker King Club President Winfred Yu as he attempts to weave his way though the APPT Manila Day 1b field. Yu said players including Phil Ivey, Tom Dwan, and Dan Cates are all currently in Manila playing some of the biggest cash games in the history of this part of the world with stakes as high as HKD 20,000/40,000/80,000.

Check out what Yu had to say about all that and more in the following video:
