MANILA, Philippines - The hunt for fame and fortune resumes today with a huge field vying in the P5-million guaranteed Metro Poker Festival at the Metro Card Club at the Metrowalk Complex in Ortigas, Pasig.
Day 1B will start at 3 p.m. and players will have to survive the grueling 10 40-minute levels to make it to Day 2 on Sunday and keep their hopes alive for the estimated P1.5-million first prize and the title.
The buy-in for this MPF main event is P10,000, but many players have won a seat for as low as P500 through the daily satellites at the biggest card room in Asia.
Metro has also lined up the ladies tournament, Big Bounty, Deepstack, and the P44K buy-in High Rollers tourney.
