The Poker Room at West Palm Beach’s iconic Palm Beach Kennel Club will host the Card Player Poker Tour the day after Christmas through New Year’s Eve.

“We’re looking forward to working with Card Player to offer a great tournament series and bring some excitement to our room. We feel our Poker Room has established itself as one of the best for cash games, but we want to keep up with the competitive tournament scene as well. It can’t be forgotten that PBKC hosted some of the largest tournaments in Florida’s history,” said Poker Room Director Noah Carbone.
