The Star Gold Coast is making final preparations for the biggest and most prestigious poker festival it has ever hosted. From September 14-27, the World Poker Tour is in town for the 2023 WPT Australia festival.
While this is not The Star Gold Coast's first WPT rodeo, it certainly is the biggest thanks to a Main Tour Main Event commanding an AUD$8,000 ($5,185) buy-in. A WPT tournament of that magnitude is sure to call out to some of Australia's elite-level players, plus countless more from further afield.
Such luminaries are Sean Ragozzini, Yita Choong, Alex Lynskey, Jarrod Thatcher, Joshua McCully, and the high-stakes guru Michael Addamo all hail from "Down Under" and would love to become a WPT champion on home soil.
