Hey, Poker Playas!
As September comes to a close and October begins, we’re here at Metro Card Club for the Batang Metro Poker Challenge 2025.
From Manila to Batangas and back again, the poker scene has been heating up—and it’s clear that the action will only get busier as we head toward the end of the year.
On our schedule this September:
-
Master Poker Club – Bluffmasters
-
9D Poker – 1.5M GTD
And as October kicks off, we’re looking forward to the Soul Poker event at COD.
The live poker scene in Manila is more exciting than ever, and we’ll be here to bring you the latest action. For now, the spotlight is on Metro Card Club and the Batang Metro Poker Challenge—let’s see who rises to the top!
