Yoshihiro Tasaka Wins 2008 PokerStars.net APPT Seoul Main Event! ($128,216)

Yoshihiro Tasaka Wins!
Yoshihiro Tasaka Wins!
Well, what a tournament! The 2008 PokerStars.net APPT Seoul Main Event has officially concluded with Japanese player Yoshihiro Tasaka taking down the title and the first place prize of $128,216!

It was a fascinating tournament which kicked off three days ago with 165 players cramped into the Walker Hill Casino. There were many big name professionals who came and went, but the Japanese contigent remained prominent throughout.

We saw a wide range of action and unique playing styles throughout the tournament. From the methodical play on Day 1, through to the breath-taking action late on Day 2 as we approached the bubble, and the pressure of the final two tables today. It provided us with plenty of entertaining poker that we are now coming to expect from the Asian region.

The key moment of today's play came when PokerStars pro Dan Schreiber was eliminated after flopping a straight against the set of Canadian Brian Kang. Kang filled up on the turn to eliminate the pro and setup a suffocating three-way battle with the two remaining Japanese players. In the end, Kang succumbed and Tasaka got the better of a courageous Hidenari Shiono to capture the trophy.

Many thanks to the APPT and PokerStars.net for another professionally managed event and continuing the exciting growth of poker in the Asian region. Also thanks to the Walker Hill Casino and associated hotels for their hospitality as our hosts.

The next stop on the Asia Pacific Poker Tour takes us to Auckland, New Zealand from October 9-12 where it is expected that we will witness New Zealand's first ever NZ$1million prize pool. Thanks for your company and we look forward to seeing you with us again in New Zealand! Good night from Seoul!
