The monumental poker celebration of 22 events over 9 consecutive weekends has ended with a good bang.
Congratulations go to all the winners
The bad
A lot of good Filipino poker players did join the event. but the truth is a lot of the top players of the Philippines either refuse to join the local union or joined on another country instead.
Upoker may be a great product. but a bad choice for a Union head has become detrimental to its growth.
When you have more than 70% of the top 30 of PH refusing to join his union which was supposed to help players joined the USOP. It may be time to rethink their choice.
There are people who would say we would always have haters. The majority did not hate the union. They just do not trust the local union.
The Other stuff
New clubs have been formed and this week there is a 10 million PHP GTD. Upoker may still be young but it is definitely growing.
With so many competitions out there. the fact Upoker can still have a great event means a lot.
We are definitely looking forward to their next great big event.
