Party Poker Launches New Live Global Tour In 2017
Party Poker Million will launch a new live tour in 2017, led by the Party Poker Million. The Party Poker Million event will feature a Buy-in of $5,300 and millions of dollars in prize money, respectively. The first confirmed destination will be the Playground Poker Club in Canada in May, and the winner will be offered a huge $5,000 Canadian dollar prize with a $1,000,000 Buy-in guaranteed. Party Poker Million will have several global destinations in 2017, and it will be announced earlier this year.
To celebrate the launch of Party Poker Million at the Playground Poker Club, Party Poker is giving out a cash bonus of C$550 to the first 100 players that can be used for travel and expenses. This bonus is an added value to the player, and funds are not deducted from the Poker Million prize pool. The online satellite will run on Party Poker from Jan. 8.
Phil Sabbah, CMO of the Playground Poker Club, said, "We are delighted to be hosting the first Party Poker Million with our online partner, Party Poker. Starting our tour in Montreal, Canada, Party Poker is showcasing for the first time the incredible event that it will offer in 2017 to all North American players. We will also be performing live phase one at the club for all of our players."
The new Party Poker Live Tour will also host the Party Poker Million Nationals, which will be guaranteed a $1,100 buyout and over $500,000 in prize money. This will be supported by a successful Grand Prix Poker Tour event in 2016 with low buyouts and high rewards for recreational poker players who operated at various football stadiums in the UK.
The first Grand Prix of 2017 will be held at the Macau Sporting Club in Cork, Ireland. Grand Prix Cork features a €100,000 guarantee on a buyout of €300 + €40 from Feb. 23-26. The online satellite is currently running on Party Poker, and players can qualify for just $2.20. 바다이야기
Tom Waters, president of the Party Poker Group, said, "It was clear to listen to the feedback of players at a Caribbean poker party, and there was an aspiration for an event that offered not only high guaranteed prize money but also pleasant fun. With the 2017 Party Poker Live event schedule, there will be something for everyone! Online qualifiers start at $0.01 at Party Poker, which will give players the chance to travel around the world to take part in amazing events."
