Breaking the new wall – Kim “The Icebreaker” Enriquez
Publish date: February 19, 2021

The Icebreaker

Kim Enriquez made that name for bagging multiple warm-up events and the opening events of big tournaments. 

Going to Cyprus a few years back, he was the only Filipino left on the last day hoping to win the glory back home.

Other leaders have confirmed he is one great player.

But there is more to this man than simply being a great poker player.

How did he start playing poker? what has he been doing during the lockdown? When tournaments are back in Manila. Will he be the first to grab the action?

We have a sit down with Kim Enriquez and this is what he had to say.
