Jason Ambata who put up a great fight but was succumb to the massive lead of his opponent only finished second place.
He has been quite active in playing a cash game. will he have a good run this year?

Jose Collada, the Okada Manila Million back-to-back champion was also present and reached the final table.
He has been running deep in a lot of events but has not gained any big title ever since January. but this is also due to limited events.

APT champion Jeorge Lagatuz also made an appearance and run deep. 1 short of getting a seat to the 800k tournament.
but APT Manila is up next week. Can he make a repeat of his win on the APT Mystery Bounty weekend?

It is a PHP 1.5 million guaranteed events that will definitely attract a good number and break the guarantee.

Will they gain a good number this year?
