• WSOP APAC!

    Date: 2013.04.04 | Category: Uncategorized | By: Phil Hellmuth   

    I’m at the inaugural World Series of Poker Asia Pacific tourney in Melbourne Australia this week going for Bracelet #14!!

    This tournament marks the first time in the history of the WSOP that bracelets are being awarded outside of the US or Europe.  329 players, 5 bracelet events, all at the stellar Crown Casino in the heart of Melbourne.  World-class!

    Event #1 (NL Hold’em Accumulator) started Thursday.  Unique event – everyone plays 3 “Day 1’s” (starting days) and keeps ALL chips from each of those 3 days for “Day 2”.  NOT the run of the mil strategy!  Solid Day 1, ended with $20,600 and never all in (can’t go broke!), and I’ve got 2 more days to add to my total.  Event wraps up on Monday, April 8th with the first ever WSOP APAC gold bracelet.
