Benasa is the Macau Poker Cup Red Dragon Event Champion

Mark Benasa, the champion of the biggest-ever MPC Red Dragon Event
After three days of intense action at PokerStars Macau, Mark Benasa of the Philippines emerged out of a huge field of players to become the Macau Poker Cup’s new Red Dragon champion.
It’s been a record-setting Red Dragon main event, with a total of 509 players registering to create a prize pool of HK $5.19 million. It’s only fitting, then, that a Filipino took home the crown for the first time in Macau Poker Cup history. He goes home with HK $1,100,000, the biggest prize awarded for a Red Dragon, as well as the shiny new trophy from PokerStars Macau.

And hey browsing around here's the news from recent "World Cup" of poker events:

http://www.pokerportal.asia/featured...-cup-of-poker/

After the first round of the World Cup of Poker (WCP) at the 2011 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure (PCA), Team Philippines earned 30 points and trails Team France by just 7 points going into the second round matches.

The Philippines is actually tied with Team Slovakia, who also has 30 points. United Kingdom and Spain are tied at 4th with 26; Italy at 6th with 24; Argentina at 7th with 21; Ukraine at 8th with 17 and the United States in last place with just 8 points.

After impressive finishes in the first two rounds of the World Cup of Poker (WCOP) VII, Team Philippines faltered in the final round of the competition to finish ninth and earn US $5,000.

The WCOP VII, which was held during the 2011 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure at the Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas, had a total of 56 nations competing for their flag and a prize pool of US $290,000. Only 10 teams, however, were invited to go to the Bahamas after winning their respective divisions.

Team Philippines is composed of team captain Geoffrey Pamatian, Yves Sy, Michael Victor Jose, Edward Garcia and Douglas Chiquito Summers.

What i am proud of is the number of Filipino finishers at the top of recent international events (well Asian events, in particular... World-class, am not sure how long before Filipinos/Asian reach that level...)

Look at the results here:

Speaking of Asians... The most famous ones are the likes of J.C. Tran, Nam Le, Johnny Chan among many others as they have seen final tables at the World Series of Poker and other MAJOR events... i am hoping the next one would be a Filipino

Are any IBN posters religiously playing this game? Semi pros? Or just a casual fish at the tables?

Do you know how to play poker?

From Wiki:

i play this game =)

Very true. What's your BR like and what sites do you prefer and play on?

i have PokerStars and Goalwin accounts but not much BR to speak of But sometimes play in live tourneys as well...

Does Lithuania also have their version of the WSOP and such? In Asia, we have the Asian Poker Tour which is being held in Macau and the Philippines. These are the "big" tourneys in the region and every poker fish dream is to play in those events

I didn't played seriously since March so my bankroll is 0 In Lithuania we have some-kind of Poker Society, but tournaments are not organized (mostly because of corrupted government decisions... long story). The game is very popular among students, because financial situation in Lithuania is always very bad, and students are one of the smartest but also poorest social group. I would say more than half student males play holdem ocasionly. Also there are lot of people who don't work or study, exploit bonuses and dreaming of winning 16 million dollars My winnings are not very inspiring - If I would spent all my profit on a car, it probably would be 1999 BMW ~~ but good condition I decided it is too hard for me because of stress and lots of negative emotions. You must have really calm nerves in order to succeed in a long run. I am personally familiar with people who won more money than I will earn in my entire life

I'm not into poker. I sucked on playing card games. Lol.

I play occasionally with friends and online. I also know couple guys who live out of playing poker online, but it is more math and discipline than intelligence and psychology (reverse IMO to real life). They told me the golden rule of poker - "As long poker is advertised on TV and internet and more and more fish are depositing their funds - we will survive, but then only pros will be left - they all will quit, because money will just circulate between them"

Michael Cua’s dream come true run at the Asian Poker Tour Philippines Main Event was one of the biggest stories in 2010. A year later, he looks to duplicate that impressive feat and defend his Main Event title in this year’s APT Philippines 2011 to be held at the Resorts World Manila (RWM) from March 28 to April 3, 2011.

Michael Cua - 2010 APT Philippines Champion

Cua’s road to the title and the US $176,700 first prize began when he joined and qualified via a RWM Satellite Series event with a buy-in of roughly US $115. In the main event, he managed to outlast a field of 225 runners defeating top players like Johnny Chan, J.C. Tran, Nam Le, Bryan Huang and Neil Arce among many other luminaries.

Aside from the main event, Cua is also expected to join the Asian Heads Up Championship, one of the eleven (11) side events scheduled in the week-long festivities.

Day 1A of the main event is scheduled on March 30 (Wednesday) with Day 1B on the next day, March 31 (Thursday); Day 2 on April 1 (Friday); Day 3 on April 2 (Saturday); and the Final Table on the April 3 (Sunday).

The APT Philippines 2011 Main Event buy-in is pegged at US $2,700 and just like the past years, top Asian and international players are expected to attend.

And yes Filipinos are considered top players in the Asian scene. There are lots of rags-to-riches stories already especially among local poker pros...

Well, I play online just for fun (in facebook)

Most people started that way too. But eventually they ended up playing for REAL money. Personally, i started playing low-stakes microlevel games. Sure, it's difficult to win, but at least i am starting to work on my "bankroll"
