While the 2015 World Series of Poker was playing out at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino, just down the road the World Poker Tour was hosting the biggest event in their history — the 2015 partypoker presents: WPT500 at ARIA Resort & Casino. The tournament attracted 5,113 entrants and created a prize pool of $2,556,500.
“We are overwhelmed by the support from the poker community for the partypoker presents: WPT500 at ARIA Resort & Casino, and thrilled that so many professional and casual players enjoyed their Las Vegas experience at ARIA,” said Adam Altwies, Director of Poker Operations for ARIA.
