31 Oct 2024 RVS CUP: Let The Games Begin At The Metro Card Club
The wait is over, the RVS CUP has finally arrived! Starting today, the Metro Card Club kicks off its most beloved annual series, bringing together local and international players for two weeks of nonstop poker. Starting out as just a single game back in 2014, the annual celebration is now larger than ever featuring a roster of 11 tournaments and a huge PHP 32,000,000 (~US$ 553,400) in guarantees.
2024 RVS CUP Begins
Running from November 1 to 14, the action-packed schedule begins with a Pre-Event which is backed by a PHP 1 Million guarantee. Last year this event pulled in a strong field of 762 entries for a prize pool of over PHP 2M. Champion Moises Esparagoza turned his lowly buy in into a payday of PHP 397,248 (~US$ 7,100) giving him plenty of ammo for the rest of the series. This year’s turnout is expected to be even bigger.
Let the games begin!
Pre-Event Structure
The Pre-Event runs November 1-3 with four flights to choose from. For a buy in of just PHP 3,500 (~US$ 60), players start with a stack of 20,000 (200x the opening blinds) and will bag up once ITM of 14% of the field is reached. Day 1A/1C will see blinds go up every 30 minutes while for Day 1B/Day 1D, blinds go up every 20 minutes.
Once this event reaches the final table, spectators can follow their favorites via the livestream on the Metro YouTube channel.
RVS CUP – Player Of The Series
Aside from the prize money and bragging rights first event win, another reason to join this event is to accrue points towards the RVS CUP Player of the Series Leaderboard. All trophy events are point-generating. The player with the most points at the end of the series will win 4D/3N accommodation at The District Boracay plus airfare allowance.
