WPT India Moves Online
The World Poker Tour returns to India this November, albeit online, with Adda52 taking the hosting role. Founded in 2002, the WPT took 15 years to bring the tour to India in 2017, then skipped a year last year, but now it is back! New for this years will be the WPT Player of the Year Award.
Longer than the usual live version, this festival kicks off on November 5th and runs for 18 days, over 150 events. There is a massive INR 13.5 Crores in guaranteed tournament prizes. The headline tournament takes place on November 11th with a INR 2.5 Crore guarantee and INR 11K buy-in.
Another great event will be the Memorial Event in honour of the great Mike Sexton, who sadly died recently after he lost his battle with cancer. All entries will be donated to the charity Poker Gives and tournament will provide a $1,000 WPT passport.
