Live poker tournament scheduled for Kahnawake.

By RP, September 13, 2011

888Poker has apparently stolen a march on its competitors by organising a live poker tournament conveniently close to Montreal in the First Nation sovereign enclave of Kahnawake.

The Super Stack tournament, scheduled to take place over two days on April 7 and 8, 2012, will be held at the Playground Poker Club in Kahnawake, Quebec, Canada, the company announced this week.

The Super Stack series offers live deep stack tournaments throughout the UK, Australia and now Canada. The first Canadian Super Stack series event will feature a buy-in of CAD$185 with a 20K starting chip stack and 30 minute blinds. Company experts expect the prize pool to reach at least CAD$20,000.

888poker.com is offering regular online feeder tournaments and a weekly Sunday qualifier for $38+$3 with at least one seat guaranteed – details are available at Superstack.net.
