WPT Global continues to make waves in both the live and online poker spaces, as it announces a brand new partnership with JP Poker Card Club & Casino in Dublin, Ireland.
The collaborative effort will afford poker players and fans even more opportunities to try their luck at capturing a big buy-in live poker title.
Starting October 3rd, WPT Global will sponsor a recurring €200 buy-in live event at JP Poker Card Club & Casino that runs each month. Players can choose to buy-in directly at the casino — or — qualify online at WPT Global via feeder satellites or direct qualifiers.

JP Poker Card Club & Casino has 10 poker tables with nightly tournaments buy-ins ranging from €65 to €110 and guarantees ranging from €2,500 to €5,000 GTD.
