Edgar Asehan
There are only a few Filipino that played early for today. and only 37 players remain for day 2.
Edgar Played early and still has a healthy stack which proves how determined he is.
Luck is his opponent. as with Master Poker Bluff Master. Edgar Survived Day 2 and was on his way to reaching the final table until his opponent hit a runner flush in all-in on the flop situation where he had the nut straight.
But he took that loss and went to Okada and ended 3rd place on the 800k.
Will his determination pay of big on this event?
