“I am so humbled to be part of an elite cast of excellent poker players at the Asian Poker Tour Main Event Final Table. Hope to do well”, says Vic De Guzman on Twitter the night before the last day of recent APT Asian Series Manila. Little did he know then but Vic would go on to do more than just “well” at the final table…
He showed up as his usual entertaining self at the felt and within the first few hands managed to double up. From there he didn’t look back, going on to decimate his worthy opponents and win the title for a massive PHP 5,359,000 payday!
Vic is a part-owner of one of Manila’s leading poker rooms – Empire Poker Sports Club. He is also one of the most notable players in the Philippine poker scene and a familiar face at APT events. Needless to say, the APT hopes to see more of Vic in its many events to come.
