PBT ties up with Metro Asia

PBT has tied up with the Metro Asia group who won the rights to operate the poker rooms at the PAGCOR Pavilion, Net World Asia and the premier location for poker in the Philippines, PAGCOR Hyatt, to head operations which includes PBT's forte, player-friendly tournaments.

We have a couple of tournaments already lined up but first things first, all regular tournaments at the Metro Asia Poker rooms in the month of December will feature NO ENTRY FEES. Think of it as an early, month long Chirstmas gift from us to our poker players.

Now on to the games -

Wednesdays in December will be the return of the Gutshot tournament but this time with a twist, its 1,000+0 freeze out tournament with a 20,000 overlay in the prize pool. That is OUR guarantee, regardless how much the prize pool is already Metro Asia will add 20,000 into the prize pool.

Saturdays will feature the same 20,000 overlay but with a buy-in of 2,000+0, just to build the prize pool even more.

On the horizon, PBT and Metro Asia are under discussions with different international groups including Pokerstars. We are just finalizing the details of these tournaments but all will have a commonality, all these world-class tournaments of Metro Asia will be televised. More information to be publicized when they are finalized.

A word on the ring games being offered at the Metro Asia poker rooms. Blinds start at 25-25 and end where ever the players would like them to end. Consistent to the PBT goals of our games being player-friendly, we assure players that there will be no "Hold-up" rake in any of our ring games, making them the best games in the City of Manila.

So see you at the Metro Asia felt.
