|
Paris — The International Stadiums Poker Tour (ISPT) has revolutionized the world of poker, establishing the first online and live tournament in poker history, scheduled for May 2013 at the legendary Wembley Stadium in London. The tournament will take place on a tactile tablet and around real tables, promising to be one of the biggest prize pools ever.
The online and live tournament is a brand new concept, devised thanks to technological innovations which will allow up to 30,000 players from all over the world to compete on digital tablets. The top 3,000 players will then advance to the live tournament which will be played on right on the Wembley Stadium field.
The tournament, which will feature a €600 buy-in, will be accessible for everyone. Organizers are expecting a huge turnout and a overall prize pool of approximately €20 million.
The first competition will take place from May 31st to June 6th, 2013. The project was thought up and created by Laurent Tapie and Prosper Masquelier. “We hope that this event will be fondly remembered by the participants and that it breaks all records in the matter,” said Tapie. “We had to consider an exceptional set up, a location that can host 30,000 people. Wembley seemed like the perfect option.”
