WPT Bay 101 Shooting Stars: Kick-off of the tournament on Monday
After its step in Los Angeles, the World Poker Tour (WPT) will visit from this Monday, March 5, California. Indeed, fans of the circuit are currently taking place on one of the most famous stages of the circuit which is the WPT Bay 101 Shooting Stars. As usual, several poker stars will participate in the tournament and they will be the bounties of the event with reward of $ 5,000 to be awarded to players who eliminate them. We should also mention that the chip leaders after the two Day 1 will receive a bonus of $ 10,000. In the first two days of competition, the world champion Jonathan Duhamel, Joe Hachem, Scotty Nguyen, Mike Sexton and Phil Hellmuth will be among the stars to eliminate at this poker tournament. Note that players who succeed in ousting the star bounties or who get the bonus as the tournament chipleader will have access to $ 10,000 buy-in.
But many well known players as Kathy Liebert, Liv Boeree, Maria Ho, Erik Seidel, Daniel Negreanu, Vanessa Selbst, Men Nguyen, Bertrand Grospellier, Barry Greenstein and the title holder Alan Sternberg will be also present. The final table will be held on March 9, 2012 and it will be a televised final table. Note that the charity tournament Silicon Valley Poker Challenge will be held at the same time as the Day 1B of this meeting to be held on Tuesday, March 6. Last year, the event gathered a profit of $ 25,000. The same success is expected for this edition 2012.
