Asian Poker Tour Manila 2009 Day 1A complete

Friday, 30 January 2009

After a hard day’s play where 75 players took to the felt and aimed to build their 10,000 stacks into as much as possible over ten hours, only 19 remain after Day 1A of APT Manila drew to a close.

The field is lead by Neil Arce and Japan’s Norihito Suzuki (insert motorbike joke). The surviving 19 will face Day 1B’s remainder on Saturday after they have played out today.
Those who busted still have several side events to look forward to, not all of them poker-related. The FHM/DafaPoker Player’s Party takes place on Saturday at 19.30 and promises to be ‘tastefully wild,’ with FHM cover models the hostesses. After the party, the Asian Poker Tour and FHM have hired party buses to take players around Manila’s hotspots. DafaPoker is the official partner of the Asian Poker Tour in presenting the Pot-Limit Omaha Hi tournament – a first for a major Asian Tour.
