The World Poker Tour (WPT) has locked in the first half of the Season XXII schedule, offering an eclectic combination of seven WPT Prime and four WPT Main Tour festivals across the globe from late January to early June.
WPT CEO Adam Pliska said, “As we approach the end of Season XXI and the WPT World Championship, we are proud to share the schedule for the first half of Season XXII. We worked vigorously with our casino partners to solidify dates for these impressive, value-packed festivals so that players may plan their 2024 schedules.”
Kicking off Season XXII is Main Tour stop WPT Cambodia at NagaWorld in Phnom Penh with the festival running 17th-30th January and the Championship event going 25th-29th January.
