Booming Poker Tournament: MSPT Set to Launch Significant Events, Kicking Off in Iowa
Major Series of Poker: The Tour (MSPT) Updates
The Major Series of Poker: The Tour (MSPT) is currently hosting multiple events this month, with action underway in Iowa and several gold card events scheduled at the Indiana Poker State Championship. However, there are no specific upcoming events for MSPT in Chicago, St. Louis, or Cleveland mentioned in the latest search results.
The MSPT Festival Main Event, the finale, commenced at 2 p.m. CT in Iowa on Day 1a. A second starting flight for the Main Event will take place on Saturday, leading up to Day 2, which begins at 11 a.m. on Sunday.
Meanwhile, the Indiana Poker State Championship is offering a $300,000 guaranteed prize pool with three Day 1 starting flights. Thirteen gold card events are scheduled at the championship between Aug 12-17. Action at the Indiana Poker State Championship begins Aug. 14 at noon for Day 1a of the $1,110 Main Event.
In other MSPT news, the MSPT Player of the Year race is heating up following the four remaining events in August. As of now, Jacob Long leads the race with 5,091 points, closely followed by Anthony Scarborough with 4,684 points.
Recent successes have been made across the border in Iowa, with Chad Holloway securing a third place finish in the MSPT Iowa State Poker Championship last month. Unfortunately, Jessica Vierling, who finished second at the MSPT Venetian in Las Vegas in June, lost a heads-up match to Josh Reichard. Reichard, an MSPT Hall of Famer and former Player of the Year, will be looking to continue his strong form.
For the most accurate and current MSPT event schedule in these cities, it is recommended to check the official MSPT website or their social media channels directly, as they announce tour stops and dates there. The MSPT will head east to the Chicagoland for the Indiana Poker State Championship at Ameristar in East Chicago, followed by a $750,000 guaranteed Main Event at JACK Cleveland Casino in Ohio from Aug. 28-31.
