After grueling hours of intellectual BS in meetings plus bouts of below zero beer and three pitchers of Cuba Libre, I rushed to Metrowalk for an interview McGrath had arranged.  On my way to our rendezvous, I battled it out in the sardine-packed MRT, got off at Ortigas station, and walked through the welcoming fumes of EDSA.  I was asking myself, “is this worth my time?”  I mean, c’mon!  What kind of a player calls himself Pusang Gala?  I had two experiences with stray cats.  Firstly, as a delicacy that you can only find in the Philippines, i.e., Siopao filling.  Secondly, a cat bit me when I was five after experimenting how high it can fly.  I picked the darn thing by the tail and I’m sure you know what happened next.  There goes my affection for cats.

GUSTO NIYO NG THREESOME? WELCOME TO ESPADAHAN 2010 at Table 26

Two teams raced out for early leads in this tourney, Team Jankalang behind the veteran moves of DareDevil and Team Magician through Wyngard. Everyone at table 26 seemed tight and tense. The table was so quiet during the early parts that it was a bit unnerving. It was a good thing we saw Arvyt and WhiteKuneho (not me ah) said "hey its UnderCloud!" - we all cracked up. Ninac passed by the table and was asked if the C stood for Cloud. she answered with a smile ..... which could have meant yes hahahaha. but thats another story so lets get back to the action.

After one week of action filled poker, The Metro Card Club THREE! Anniversary Tournament finally ended with one man left standing.

The event guaranteed Php3,000,000 inclusive of 3 packages to the upcoming international tournament, the Asia Pacific Poker Tour (APPT)., happening on November 12 to 16, 2010 at the Shangri-la Hotel & Resort Cebu.

“The outcome of a vision shared by a handful of people with a true passion for the game of Poker,” the Metro Card Club has grown by leaps and bounds since the moment it first opened in 2007 with only 11 tables in a 250 sq. meter room.

To celebrate its 3rd year anniversary, the Metro Card Club, in its vision to provide the best service and the best poker games in the country, is having a week-long poker event entitled Metro Card Club's THREE! Starting from October 21-27, 2010, THREE!guarantees THREE MILLION pesos (Php3,000,000) inclusive of THREE Asian Pacific Poker Tour (APPT) packages for an affordable buy-in of THREE thousand pesos (Php3,000).
