CONFERENCE CORNER
Poker On Tour Convention hits the road
The First Annual Poker on Tour Convention could soon be coming to a (U.S.) city near you.
Poker on Tour will make its official debut in a 3-day event on March 17-19, 2005 at the Biltmore Hotel, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The official national tour will launch in May, and will cover 28 cities in four legs ending in Las Vegas.
Poker on Tour is designed to promote, educate and inform the public about the world of poker. Featured guest speakers, poker authors and poker pros will join the tour to give lectures and conduct several Q & A sessions allowing the public to interact with the pros to get the ins and outs of the game. Poker player and author of two gaming/poker books Gary Carson will be at all three events and Pody Poe is confirmed for Friday and Saturday. Dan Michalsi is scheduled as featured speaker for all three days of the event as well.
Vendors expected on the tour are online poker rooms, gaming platforms and software, poker novelty items and other promotional companies.
Inside Poker will make its debut as the newest gaming publication under the SGPN umbrella. This magazine is the official publication of the tour and will be on newsstands and in card rooms and casinos starting in May. Special discounts will be given in the premier Issue of “Inside Poker” to all vendors attending the event.
Major media coverage of this three-day event is to be heavily generated by newspaper, radio and TV. Media day is scheduled on Wednesday March 16th, from 2-5 p.m.
