The Mid-States Poker Tour (MSPT) is a series of deep stack Texas Hold’em tournaments held at separate locations throughout the Midwest. Tropicana Evansville is hosting the MSPT Regional Tournament in their southern Indiana casino through January 31.
The MSPT is designed to cater directly to Poker players, players who desire affordable buy-ins that also lead to large prize pools. The MSPT adds a new level of prestige to Poker in the Midwest — one of the most underrated Poker hotbeds in the country.
“MSPT has a very strong following. Some of its events have prize pools in excess of $400,000. Our preliminary events were well received by our poker players and we feel this is a great indication the main event will be strong.†says Giffen Tan, Executive Director of Gaming Operations at Tropicana Evansville.
Prize amounts are entirely dependent on the number of players in the tournament but a Main Event Prize Pool of $50,000 is guaranteed. The Main Event will take place Thursday, January 28 through Sunday, January 31 in Tropicana Evansville’s Casino Poker Room. Tournament viewing is open to the public, but space is limited.
