Metrocard club re-opens
This time around, it is the Metrocard club that has re-open first. Safety measures are in place. But players are not that keen to jump aboard.
Although we expect the game to pick up soon. it still a long way to go before the games are back to pre-covid days.
Pokerstars Live in Okada Manila remains close.
Pokerstars was the first to re-open during the pandemic. However, there is still no news when will they re-open.
Before the second lockdown, there have been plans to be more aggressive in terms of promoting the room but like the other poker rooms and houses. it now has remained close.

This is probably the poker room that a lot of poker players are waiting for as the bad-beat jackpot was already attractive.
before the lockdown. the average waiting time for a seat was more than 4 hours. However, being the last room to re-open due to safety concerns could also mean that they might still remain close to play safe.

Online rooms are still moving forward.
Live tournaments make take a while longer. Hence online poker sites are getting active.
