Hey, Poker Playas!
The Day After — Cebu Stands Tall
Two major tournaments have just wrapped up in Cebu.
And while they may not have carried the massive guarantees offered by the big rooms in Manila—that was never the point.
This wasn’t just about prize pools.
This was Cebu stepping up, standing toe-to-toe with the capital, and saying:
“We belong here.”
It was about a poker room outside Manila not just running a tournament, but sharing its identity, its culture, and its spirit—showing the rest of the country what Cebu poker truly represents.
Community. Passion. Grit. Growth.
And if the past few days are any indication, Cebu isn’t just keeping up—
it’s carving out its own path.
VOYAGER POKER CLUB
Departure Reflections — Until Next Time, Cebu
Leaving for Cebu on an early morning flight.
But instead of rushing to the airport, I’ve decided to spend these last quiet hours writing from the poker room—a place that’s become more than just felt and chips.
It feels like waking up from a daydream, slowly stepping back into reality after living in something rare and beautiful.
Summer 2025 will be one to remember.
My flight boards at 4:30 AM, and I plan to leave Voyager by 2:30, spending the final stretch at one of the country’s best airports. But honestly, I’ll miss this room the moment I walk out.
Because Voyager isn’t just a poker room—it’s a place of rediscovery.
Every year, it gives me space to reflect, to grow, and to quietly evolve into a better version of myself.
The Cebu poker scene continues to rise—not through flashy guarantees or risky promises, but through consistency, character, and connection.
Unlike Manila’s “Field of Dreams” approach, Voyager has chosen substance over spectacle. And it shows.
I truly hope to see it grow even bigger in my lifetime.
But for now, I leave with a grateful heart, renewed purpose, and memories I’ll carry with me all the way back to Manila.
Thank you, Cebu. Until next time.
