Poker Stars Launches Russian Poker Tour
taken from CARDPLAYER magazine:
"For the past two years, the poker-viewing public has seen a Russian on the game’s biggest stage, controlling the action, instilling fear into his opponents, and impressing fans with his play.
In 2007, it was bracelet winner Alex Kravchenko, who finished in fourth place in the main event when his A-K couldn’t out-race Jerry Yang’s pocket eights. This year, it was the aggressive Ivan Demidov, who made some very creative plays en route to his second-place finish in the world championship.
It was evident that Russia was producing some premier players. Well, the poker community should get ready for a whole lot more.
That’s because PokerStars has just announced that it will sponsor the Russian Poker Tour (RPT), starting with two major events in early 2009.
The first RPT event will kick off on Jan. 25 in St. Petersberg with a $5,000 buy-in event. The price of poker goes up on Feb. 22, when Moscow hosts the second RPT event with a $10,000 buy-in.".............
