Another speaker that evening is Vic De
Guzman, a top pros Poker player in the country whose winning records either
here and in abroad is unparalleled, he point out that Filipinos are the most
creative players in playing poker, and he declare it’s the ultimate sports that
Filipinos should embrace because this is the only sports that no height or weight
is required.
After all those talks, our group is divided
into three and given a table at the poker room of Solaire. Each dealings of cards is a learning yet
thrilling experience, the coaching from the professional players really helps
and made me understand that it is really a sport and not a sort of gambling
thing that will burn all your hard earn money in a snap of your fingers. A discipline and a right attitude with of
course the good guidance and the right style of playing with creativity is a
sure formula to conquer the world of Poker.
Unfortunately I have to leave early and
leave my winning chips to my assign group after the third round. But the
memories of playing Poker in Solaire I must say is extraordinary and a chance
of a lifetime. We’ll never know when these will happen again.
