Introducing ANZPT Season 1 Prepare to jet off to some of the world’s most exotic locations and play poker for life-changing money, because the same people that gave you the APPT are now ready to bring you the first ever fully-fledged Australia New Zealand Poker Tour (ANZPT)!Season 1 starts in the coastal city of Adelaide, February 4, 2009, before then moving on to Sydney and Queenstown. Keep a look out for more events being announced soon. It looks set to be the greatest tour ever to hit the area - and you could be there with our satellite qualifiers. If you’ve never been to the region before, here’s the perfect excuse to go. With great beaches and the weather to match, Australia is always a popular destination for people looking for fun in the sun. New Zealand meanwhile is famous for its vibrant cities and beautiful landscapes. Both nations also deal a mean hand of poker, so what better way to prove your skills to the world than sitting down at the table with the locals and the best players from all over the planet - including Team PokerStars Pro and 2005 World Series winner Joe Hachem. PokerStars is already world-renowned for the quality of our live poker tours. The European Poker Tour, Asia Pacific Poker Tour and Latin American Poker Tour have all been a huge success, with thousands of poker players from around the world taking part in the action, and new poker millionaires being made along the way.
