World Poker Tour® Announces Partnership with Holland Casino

Historic First WPT® Main Tour Event in Amsterdam Kicks Off May 11; Festival on May 8

London, UK — The World Poker Tour® today announced an exclusive four-year partnership with Holland Casino, establishing an annual WPT® Main Tour and WPT National event in the Netherlands through 2019. The first tournament, WPT Amsterdam, kicks off May 11 in the Venice of the North, and features two starting flights and a buy-in of €3,300.

The World Poker Tour will then return to Holland on September 30 for WPT National Valkenburg. The festival begins with a €1,500 buy-in High Roller, followed immediately by Day 1a of the €750 buy-in WPT National Valkenburg Main Event.

Thanks to a dramatic makeover, Holland Casino now provides guests with an unparalleled casino experience right in the heart of Amsterdam. Located between the Leidse square entertainment district and the museum district, Holland Casino Amsterdam offers the latest slot machines, video machines, table games, bars, and restaurants. At Holland Casino Valkenburg, guests will enjoy relaxing views atop the Cauberg hill in the South Limburg region, world-class cuisine from Le Jardin restaurant, and spacious gaming halls.

“We are delighted with the fact that the WPT Main Tour is coming to Holland Casino Amsterdam. After the first alliance for a WPT National in Valkenburg last year, it is the first time that the WPT Main Tour is in Holland, and therefore an important moment”, commented Holland Casino CEO Willem-Jan van den Dijssel. “WPT is one of the largest poker tours and a premier name in international poker. We are proud to host the tournament and are convinced that it will take poker to a higher level in the Netherlands.”

WPT President Adam Pliska adds, “We are proud to announce our partnership with Holland Casino, and to bring both the WPT Main Tour and the WPT National Tour to two world-class properties in the Netherlands. The Dutch have a rich history in poker, including various final table appearances on the World Poker Tour, and we look forward to creating more memories with top professionals and aspiring players alike over the next four years.”
