in Metro Freeroll poker

THREE brand new cars and one million pesos in cash will be up for grabs when the Metro Card Club holds the Metro Triple Treat Freeroll poker tournament on Sept. 14-15 at the Metro Card Club in Metrowalk Complex in Ortigas, Pasig City.

Players who have accumulated at least 300 hours of playing cash game are qualified to see action in the biggest poker room in Asia, which ran the promo from June 1 to Aug. 31.

"This is one way of rewarding our loyal Metro Card Club members for keeping the No. 1 card room in the country going," Metro Card Club president Nick Galan said in yesterday’s PSA Forum at Shakey’s UN Ave.

According to Metro Card Card marketing manager Nina Castro, 148 players have qualified for the tourney, with the champion taking home a brand new Toyota Fortuner. The second placer will drive a Toyota Altis and the third finisher will get a Toyota Vios.

"The rest of the qualifiers will get a part of the P1 million cash (pot)," said Castro, who also graced the public service program presented by Outlast Battery, Pagcor and Shakey’s.

Metro Card Club has been running promos for its ever-growing members, with Castro saying going on is the "1 for all, all for 1" promo where a player who can accumulate 100 hours of playing cash game from Sept. 1-30 will earn a ticket to the P1 million freeroll event next month.

Galan revealed that poker is now recognized as a mind sport by the International Olympic Committee and Metro Card Club is supporting efforts to create a national association in the country.
