Heartland Poker Tour: Acquired by the Federated Sports and Gaming
Among the medium poker circuit organized around the world, the Heartland Poker Tour (HPT) is the one that experienced the greatest success. As a reminder, the HPT amazed those who like to play poker through the many stages of the tournament held on the U.S. territory. In addition, almost every main event of the HPT have been a huge TV show. But in the next years, the reputation of the HPT will be still more assertive because the circuit has just been bought by the Federated Sports and Gaming (FS + G). Note that the FS + G created the largest gathering of professional poker and this new partnership can be more than successful.
For the moment, any information regarding the consolidation of HPT and the league of professional poker has been unveiled. But according to rumors, qualifying satellite tournaments for events of the Pro-Am Poker League will take place during the stages of the HPT. It is also possible that the champions of the various HPT tournaments will be qualified for the next meeting of the league. Note that the Heartland Poker Tour is currently in its seventh season, and since the first edition in 2005, the tournament distributed more than $ 28.6 million in rewards for poker enthusiasts who participated in 90 events. This year, 15 tournaments are scheduled and they all take place in the United States. As for the professional poker league or FS + G, the first tournament, which will gather 200 poker elite will be held next August. Note that this first edition will have four tournaments and will be concluded with a Grand Finale which will bring together the best players of the previous events.
