Latin America Poker Tour Launches

Very, very cool news. Pokerstars has launched another tour series. They already run the Asia Pacific Poker Tour (APT) and European Poker Tour (EPT) and now Latin American Poker Tour. So far it looks like tour events will be held in Brazil, Costa Rica and Uruguay. Sick.

The coolest thing about these tours is that you can potentially win an all expense paid prize package to these events. I have never one won..yet. However, it is not outside the realm of possibility to achieve. Basic packages I have seen pay: (1) your tournament entry at the tour event; (2) roughly 2,000.00 in cash (airfare); (3) 3-5 nights at the hotel/casino hosting the event. Not bad at all. It is possible to qualify for $5 or so with a bit of luck.
