The poker world is going prime time! The
goal of the World Poker Tour (WPT) is to transform
tournament poker into a sport and gain mass audience appeal,
just as the PGA Tour did for golf and NASCAR did for stock
car racing.
The World Poker Tour will consist of 13 of the world's
most prestigious poker tournaments (including the
Party Poker Million II March 1-8, 2003) in the first
nationally broadcast poker series ever, beginning in January
2003. The WPT championship final (to be held at Bellagio in
April 2003) will be a $25,000 buy-in no limit Hold'em
tournament that is destined to be the biggest event in poker
history.
This is an exciting time for poker! |
