PokerStars.com Launches UK and Ireland Poker Tour
Poker Stars have announced plans for a UK and Ireland poker tour. Known as the UKIPT, the tour will start in Galway, Ireland in the middle of December 2009. The first UK venue will be in Manchester in Feb 2010.
Other tour venues include Killarney and Dublin in Ireland, one location in Scotland, and UK stops at Coventry, Nottingham, and Brighton in addition to Manchester. October 2010 will see the grand final in London.
Both pro and amateur players will be eligible, with a range of buy-ins to select from £500 to €2000. Entry will also be possible by winning one of the planned Pokerstars tournament satellites.
The UKIPT is the latest addition to the PokerStars poker tours family, complimenting the already announced European Poker Tour (EPT), Latin American Poker Tour (LAPT), and Asia Pacific Poker Tour (APPT).
Pokerstars also sponsor the Russian, Italian, Czech, and Australian-New Zealand Poker Tours.
