The First Annual Poker on Tour Convention could soon be coming to
a (U.S.) city near you.
Poker on Tour will make its official debut in a 3-day event on March
17-19, 2005 at the Biltmore Hotel, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The official
national tour will launch in May, and will cover 28 cities in four
legs ending in Las Vegas.
Poker on Tour is designed to promote, educate and inform the public
about the world of poker. Featured guest speakers, poker authors and
poker pros will join the tour to give lectures and conduct several
Q & A sessions allowing the public to interact with the pros to
get the ins and outs of the game. Poker player and author of two gaming/poker
books Gary Carson will be at all three events and Pody Poe is confirmed
for Friday and Saturday. Dan Michalsi is scheduled as featured speaker
for all three days of the event as well.
Vendors expected on the tour are online poker rooms, gaming platforms
and software, poker novelty items and other promotional companies.
Inside Poker will make its debut as the newest gaming publication
under the SGPN umbrella. This magazine is the official publication
of the tour and will be on newsstands and in card rooms and casinos
starting in May. Special discounts will be given in the premier Issue
of “Inside Poker” to all vendors attending the event.
Major media coverage of this three-day event is to be heavily generated
by newspaper, radio and TV. Media day is scheduled on Wednesday March
16th, from 2-5 p.m.
