Over recent months Manilla has overtaken Macau as the hub of ultra-high stakes live poker games. However, last weekend a high stakes Poker pro tested his physical mettle in the Philippines capital rather than his poker brain.
Limit hold’em specialist and 2+2 podcast regular Terrence Chan won his 2nd professional MMA fight on a hot and humid Manilla night.
Chan, who has 30 WSOP cashes to his name, as well as both SCOOP and WCOOP titles (and an amateur MMA record of 4-0), penned an interesting recap of events at his website terrencechanpoker.com.
After some technical hitches (the referee not actually knowing the rules of the contest and what moves were/weren’t permitted), and the contest running several hours late, it seemed like a fairly routine win for Chan, who, by all accounts, dominated the fight.
The fight ended after Chan bent his opponents shoulder behind his head which Chan described as “a bit of a gross feeling”.
To read more about the build up to the fight, and Chan’s musings on the action, check out his blog post here.
