68-year-old Poker Champ Wins Masters Poker Club’s Php250K

MASTERS Poker Club continues its advocacy to promote poker as a mind sport as it celebrates the victory of veteran player, 68-year-old Lourdes Fernandez, who emerged as event champion of the club’s Php250K Mystery Bounty that was recently held in its Malate branch.

On her way to the top, Fernandez eliminated 6 players and collected their bounties amounting to Php 51,000 and took home another Php 42,000 as the event champion — bringing her total winnings to Php 93,000. Her years of experience proved too much for her competitors and truly shows that poker is a game of skill that requires dedication and consistency.

Thanks to Masters Poker Club, the game is now elevated into a sport that anybody could excel in. In the end, all the training and practice paid off and it feels really awesome.”
