Czar Ian Marcos Clinches MSS 22 Main Event
"I’m thankful and very happy because this is my first time winning a Main Event!"
Big win for Filipino player Czar Ian Marcos as he reined in the Manila Super Series 22 Main Event title. After an ICM deal at heads up with Dutch player Germ De Haas, that practically chopped the remaining pot in evenly, the duel continued for the coveted PokerStars spade and the APPT Manila Main Event Package valued at PhP 125,000.
Starting deep and fairly even in chips, it was a hard-fought showdown to the finish. Marcos opened with a slight disadvantage then quickly built up to take the lead. De Haas showed resilience, dropping then clawing his way back multiple times to keep the match close. In the end, it took a cooler to wrap it up. De Haas fell with A♠ K♥ that failed to improve against Marcos's J♠ J♥ .
