United States of America (Press Release) April 8, 2008 --
The World Poker Tour Amateur Poker League (WPTAPL) 2007 United States Championship will be held in Orlando, Florida April 10th – 12th, 2008 at the International Plaza Resort & Spa. The annual event invites top amateur poker players from across the United States to compete against one another for the chance of taking home the title of “2007 WPTAPL United States Champion” as well as over $30,000.00 in cash and prizes. One of those prizes; a seat in a major World Poker Tour televised event valued at over $10,000.
Along with the championship event, poker players, aficionados and Orlando locals will have the opportunity to mingle with and learn from some of today’s top poker professionals in one of the many World Poker Tour Boot Camp learning modules that are scheduled. “This is the first time that we have offered our players a direct line to the World Poker Tour pro’s, we are very excited.” says Shane McCullough, VP of Operations with WPTAPL. “You don’t need to be a WPTAPL player to attend the modules. The seats are limited however, and filling fast.” McCullough says.
The three day event will feature unique opportunities for everyone including Orlando locals; WPT Boot Camp Modules, taught by world renowned professional poker players Clonie Gowen, Kenna James, and Nick Brancato, a VIP After Party to mingle with the Pros, an incredible breakfast buffet, the WPTAPL National Awards Ceremony, and more. WPT Mobile, WPT Cruises, WorldVentures, and several other sponsors will be in attendance as well. Those who have not qualified for the Championship Event can enjoy these opportunities to enhance their poker skills, meet the pro’s, and participate in this elite Amateur event.
Players must be previously qualified to play in the Championship Event, though all other attractions are open to surrounding area locals. All events will take place at International Plaza Resort and Spa; 10100 International Drive Orlando, Florida.
Over 500 WPTAPL tournaments are held on a weekly basis across the United States. The players participating in WPTAPL events earn WPTAPL points. Points will qualify players for regional tournaments. The regional winners will qualify to compete in the National Championship, for the chance to win a $10,000 seat into a WPT Main event. WPT also gives away many other potentially life changing prizes such as seats into the WPT Celebrity Invitational tournament, an invite-only tournament where top poker pros and Hollywood celebrities compete for hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash and a $25,000 seat into the WPT World Championship. Every point earned with WPTAPL translates into rewards which can then be exchanged for prizes ranging from T-Shirts to Flat Screen TV’s. Prizes are given to participants in regular tournaments promoting local and national sponsors (Where laws permit).
