MANILA, PHILIPPINES, 2008
The Asian Poker Tour (APT) - Manila was the inaugural event in this ground-breaking series taking place from May 26th until June 2nd. Titan Poker afforded its players the opportunity to compete for attendance to the APT - Manila and was met with a great response. This is partly due to the whopping $1 million prize pool that awaited qualifying players who trekked off to Manila.
Seven Titan Poker players came from a plethora of countries ready and happy to play. Only a few had played at a live tournament before, so it was a very exciting experience.

The APT-Manila was his second big live tournament. He qualified for this live event with a mere $29 satellite.
Staff and players anxiously await the tournament to begin as the final touches are added to prepare the tables for some serious poker play.
