One of the most well known names in poker belongs not to a pro player, but to a pro tournament director, Matt Savage. After leaving his spot as top director for the World Series of Poker, Savage has been hired by a number of poker organizations to keep things smooth, and also to lend a little name recognition. Such is the case with the Asian Poker Tour, which recently hired Savage to be their top tournament director. The first leg of the APT will take place in Manila at the Dusit Thani Manila Hotel.
