WPT inks PokerStars deal

PokerStars will now be the WPT's pigeonhole sponsor when Season 7 shows air in Canada, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands.

PokerStars and the WPT will also correspond to gestate localized Spanish/Portuguese-Ro programs featuring home commentators for alterative territories in Latin America.

"TV backing is an formidable part of our joint-stock company, so having the biggest peer group in the poker manufacture jump on infrastructure is an irresistible way to give away international classification of Season 7," said WPT Founder and CEO Steve Lipscomb.

"We look favorable to nitration with PokerStars as we roll out the fresh WPT programming to fans in these territories."

The World Poker Tour announced this past November that it had inked a deal with Full Tilt Poker, greatheartedness similar use sponsorship and scoop rights to in-show academic gaming form integration for the 26 Season 7 episodes rap session in the United States and Mexico.
