Notes about the tournament
Battle to 16 players
This is actually quite a unique system that we saw first in Cebu. Because small poker rooms have limited space. they use. different system.
No matter how many players joined. only 16 players will move forward to day 2, thereby there is a fixed number of players qualifying for day2.
One of the advantages of this is playing Day1A which has fewer players by default has a higher chance to qualify for day2.
14:10 HRS – Kadayawan Special Day1A – Level 3 – Blinds 75/150 – 32 players
Rodrigo Sequite
A champion from Manila

3rd table full going on 4th table
It’s only Day1A!
The reason we are amazed about this is that in Manila starting on time is sometimes a stretch. There is only one poker room in Manila that has been consistent in starting on time.
But it looks like Metro Card Club Davao is very efficient in its ways.
13:00 HRS – Kadayawan Special Day1A – Level 1 – Blinds 25/50 – 8 players
The tournament started on Time
starting stack is 20,000
Normally, the province can learn from city how to do things but there are times that the city can learn more from the province.
The tournament actually started on time and more players are coming in. A feat that a few poker rooms in Manila could not even do.
Plus point!
