Hi everyone
I’m just posting some new material that we are amending for the Kamloops 5th street poker tour.
We have decided to change the format for the next tour - we are going to be giving away a $100 satellite ticket for each location of the tour.
Including a $100 satellite ticket for the grand finale for the top 10 players of the tour.
Instead of giving away one $500 ticket to the WSOP. We are giving away 5 - $100.00 satellite tickets. They’ll be extra prizes for the top winners as well as lots of extra giveaways. This way more players can win!!

There will be a top 10 list for each location
to play after the ten week tour. There will be a final table of 10 people for each location to play for each satellite ticket.
When all the tickets have been won, there will be a special trip planned to Kelowna casino for a weekend of some serious playing and adventure in the World Series of poker.

Also, I would like to set up a society / club for playing poker. This will be coming in the near future so we could host more games in town for all the players that enjoy the game.
Thank you to all players that are now currently playing, and wishing more players would join our league and to support Poker in Kamloops British Columbia.

Thanks
☺️
