World Poker Tour DeepStacks Future Plans

We can only assume that WPT’s branching out to lesser known venues is part of a bigger plan. World Poker Tour Vice-President Hermine Blum Europe acknowledged that their use of King’s Casino in Rozvadov was a trailblazing partnership. This is a first of many events to come.
