Paul Phua News: Triton charity tournament

Lots of fun was had at the Solaire casino in Manila on the 9th and 10th September 2016.

Some of the world’s best players came to play at the Triton Charity poker tournament with Tom Dwan, Daniel Cates, Paul Phua and friends among the buy ins. Great news was that many more poker players arrived than expected, meaning more money raised for charity.
