This tournament is just the first of five being held in conjunction with The Venetian in Las Vegas this summer.
In addition, there will be a $600 buy-in, $1 million GTD tournament June 9-13 followed by tournaments with buy-ins of $5,000, $1,600 and $3,500. Those three tournaments will have respective GTDs of $1 million, $3 million, and $3.5 million!
The final tables from all those events will be broadcast LIVE (15-minute delay) worldwide on msptpoker.com using RFID technology allowing all viewers to see the hole cards. In addition, the entire $1,100 MSPT Venetian Main Event will be live reported on the MSPT live blog as well as Day 2 and on in the other four events.
Here’s a look at the MSPT Venetian summer schedule:
Main Event 124 – $1,100: June 3-8 ($3,500,000 GTD)
Main Event 125 – $600: June 9-13 ($1,000,000 GTD)
Main Event 126 – $5,000: June 15-17 ($1,000,000 GTD)
Main Event 127 – $1,600: June 18-22 ($3,000,000 GTD)
Main Event 128 – $3,500: June 25-30 ($3,500,000 GTD)
*Each event is eligible for MSPT Player of the Year points, but each buy-in $1,100 or greater will be calculated at the same level as our $1,100 Main Events. The $600 buy-in tournament will be calculated at 2/3 points of the $1,100 level.
The MSPT tournaments are a part of The Venetian’s Deepstack Extravaganza III, which will feature 150 events from May 14 through July 29 and offer more than $31 million in guaranteed prize pools.
