PartyPoker has expanded its service offering beyond online and mobile gaming by confirming a new live event series for 2017.
This year’s ‘PartyPoker Live’ tour will be headlined by the ‘PartyPoker Million’, with each of these events to feature multi-million dollar prize pools.
The series will also include ‘PartyPoker Million Nationals’, where entrants will compete for guaranteed prize pools in excess of $500,000 (€474,000).
The first confirmed stop for the inaugural series is at Playground Poker Club in Canada this May.
Tom Waters, group head of PartyPoker, said: “With the 2017 PartyPoker Live events schedule, there will be something for everyone.
“Online qualifiers start from $0.01 on PartyPoker, giving players the opportunity to travel all over the world to take part in some amazing events.”
