Poker Face Tournament for July 2010

The Southspot Crew together with Executive Producer Choco and Director Kenth Bajo labored for hours to cover the highlight of Davao's poker scene, Metro Card Club Davao's Poker Face Tournament.  It was the first Davao Tournament with TV coverage.

Technical Rehearsal
 And everybody was visibly excited.  Players dressed up and prepared their game faces.  70 players dared to dream.  10 won prizes.  Only 9 got the chance to exhibit skill and patience as they played for 5 hours in the final table.

In the end, it was a grudge match between Bong "The Specialist" Lu and Alex Chua.  The two had previously battled for last year's Poker Face Anniversary Match on October 2009.  Bong won in October 2009.  But July 2010 belongs to Alex Chua.


Complete list of winners are:

  • Champion: ALEX CHUA
  • Runner-up: BONG "THE SPECIALIST" LU
  • 3rd Place: ROY CLEMEƑA
  • 4th Place: JUSTIN TABLIZO
  • 5th Place: JUN JAVIER
  • 6th Place: IAN BUSERA
  • 7th Place: JAY GARCIA
  • 8th Place: LALA MEJARO
  • 9th Place: JOHANN DE GUZMAN
