Ain't no rest for the wicked. After a few weeks off for the holiday "off-season", the poker circuit opens up it's 2011 season with a boatload of events, including the first the first four PTPR Premier events of the new season.
PCA - POKERSTARS CARIBBEAN ADVENTURE (NAPT)
We start the season off with one of the crown jewels of poker, the Pokerstars Caribbean Advenute from the beautiful Atlantis Resort & Casino in the Bahamas. Both Harrison Gimbel and William Reynolds will look to defend major titles at the PCA.
AUSSIE MILLIONS
Once your PCA dreams are crushed, you may be heading down under for another big event of the season - the Aussie Millions. One of the only major events left that is not associated to any type of tour. Tyron Krost won last year's Main Event - the same event where Sorel Mizzi scored 52 points.
WPT SOUTHERN POKER CHAMPIONSHIP
The WPT opens it's 2011 season by visiting Biloxi, Mississippi where Hoyt Corkins will be defending his WPT Souther Poker Championship title.
EPT DEAUVILLE
The EPT will also name it's first champion of the season at EPT Deauville in France. Rising star Jake Cody, winner of this event as well as the WPT London event last year, will look to defend his title.
LAPC MILLION DOLLAR TOURNEY
The WPT Los Angeles Poker Championship won't name a Main Event winner until March BUT - the series' opening event guarantees a Million Dollar prize pool again this season and, with a buy-in under $400, it is sure to bring in an insane number of participants.
WSOP CIRCUIT CHOCTAW
Oklahoma will welcome the revamped World Series of Poker Circuit starting January 6. The udpated WSOPC has been a fair success early in it's rebirth.
