PokerStars unveils Portugal Poker Series

PokerStars unveils Portugal Poker Series



I have known many people who have traveled to Portugal, and not one of them has ever indicated that they wouldn't go back in a second. The coastal nation on the Iberian peninsula stands out as one of the world's truly distinctive countries and claims a culture and lifestyle all its own. Now, it has a poker tour to match.
Today, PokerStars announced its newest live tour, the Portugal Poker Series. The first season of the PPS will contain three events, beginning in Vilamoura April 14-17. Event #1 will mark PokerStars returned to the famed Casino Vilamoura that plays home to the European Poker Tour's stop in Portugal. The PPS main event is an affordable €700 + €70 no-limit hold'em tournament capped at 400 players.

After pulling up stakes in Vilamoura, the series will travel to Figueira de Foz June 10-13 and Espinho October 13-16. Both cities will host €700 + €70 main events.
Like the UKIPT and many other PokerStars tours before it, the Portugal Poker Series will bring the feel of massive big buy-in tournaments to players looking for a more affordable buy-in.
Team PokerStars Portugal Pro Nuno Coelho said, "Finally, PokerStars brings to Portugal a poker tour with an excellent game structure and attractive prize pool that will make many international players want to visit the country."
