The Power of Poker Players
On a daily basis across the US poker rooms do battle for the loyalty of local poker players. Through various promotions and tournament offerings, they attempt to capture and hold the attention of a group of people that play the game on a regular basis.
In the early stages of The U.S. Poker Tour, one thing has been proven at each of our Member Casinos: When they begin offering USPT, the players turn-out in droves. Thus far, the average new USPT Member Casino has signed up more than 250 players in their first month of offering our events. We are extremely thrilled to see so many poker players interested in The US Poker Tour.
We would like to offer a free gift to local poker players that are willing to help us out. Is there a casino that you would like to see offering United States poker tour events? Maybe you like to play at a certain casino and they don't offer USPT. Here's what we want you to do:
The next time you go to your favorite poker room, ask them if they are obtainable to offer USPT Events. If you cannot go in person, call them. Whether the answer is “yes” or “no” or something in between, asks to speak with the Poker Room Manager.
