$250,000 Grand Prix Poker Tour Heads To Glasgow May 14
Glasgow will play host to the latest leg of the $250,000 guaranteed Grand Prix Poker Tour (GPPT) this weekend when the partypoker-sponsored event heads to Scotland's national stadium, Hampden Park.
The Main Event is a $109 buy-in tournament where players sit down with 20,000 chips and play for a share of a prize pool with a hefty $250,000 guarantee. Like other stops on the GPPT, there are several Day 1s taking place online at partypoker, giving players the flexibility to play from the comfort of their own home before heading north of the border to complete their quest for glory, and doing so knowing that everyone who reaches Day 2 is in the money.
