David Soin lifts first-ever APT title at the No Limit Hold’em
Not many players are in town for the series and understandably so. One player that did make it was Singapore’s David Soin who seems to be a new face at the APT. If so, then his first visit is already a victorious one having taken down the No Limit Hold’em event after a three-way deal. Also cashing in this event was APT Player of the Series race leader, Chan Lok Ming, who jumped in immediately after shipping the Deep Stack Hyper Turbo (written above).
