Latin
American Poker Tour
Expands
Vegas
Promotion Systems has announced
it is expanding its Latin
American Poker
Tour (LAPT) to include North
American venues.
The
name of the Tour has changed to
become the "Poker Tour of the
Americas" (PTA).
As
a result of increased interest
from cities all over North and
South America, Vega has agreed to
expand the Tour's reach to
include cities in the United
States and Canada.
The
plan for the inaugural season
remains the same. The Company is
currently negotiating with venues
in several Latin American
countries, including Puerto Rico,
Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru,
Venezuela, Dominican Republic,
and Costa Rica. New potential
Tour stops include venues in the
United States and Canada, with a
season ending Tournament of
Champions to crown the champion
of the "Poker Tour of the
Americas."
In
addition to promoting the PTA,
Vega will be the Executive
Producer of the video programming
and plans to air the tournaments
throughout North and South
America. Since Vega will own the
programming, the Company is
currently negotiating for airtime
with cable providers that would
in turn, allow the Company to
sell its own advertising for the
programs.
The
tournaments will be structured as
invitational events with players
from all over the world able to
win seats via online and live
local satellite
tournaments.
