World Cup of Cards moves online for the first time

The World Cup of Cards, which will run on Partypoker from June 16 to July 8, will make its debut online. The series, which is usually hosted by Playground Poker Club in Quebec, is offering the chance to all the poker room’s players to enter the Main Event for just a single cent, and not just those based in Canada.

I'm looking forward to partypoker bringing the World Cup of Cards online. I'm missing playing at Playground, which is such an exciting place to play live, but hopefully we will see this series back there soon”, said Team partypoker’s Kristen Bicknell. “In the meantime, I'm most looking forward to the Main Event, which should be a great tournament. As always, there will be great satellites running, but if you don't manage to make it through, the $5.50 and $55 Grand Prix tournaments are a helpful lower-stakes option.”
