Default Turks and Caicos WPT Event

Turks and Caicos O RLY?

Just came upon this scheduled WPT event. Does anyone know anything more about the tournament or the locale?

Interesting, more of a push from the WPT to grab overseas market share.

if they are having a wpt event there, and you plan on going, you will need two bankrolls. i just vacationed there 2 months ago, and it is one of the most expensive places i've been, and i've been all over. average bar and grill type place.....burger,fries, 3 beers...$35 b4 tip. paid 5 bucks for a can of diet coke poolside. six pack of beer at a liquor store 20 bucks. you get the picture.

Looking at the schedule:

1. The WPT event at Turks and Caicos competes HEAD-TO-HEAD against the UltimateBet.net/AbsolutePoker.net event in Aruba.

2. The WPT event in Barcelona, Spain competes HEAD-TO-HEAD against the Moscow Millions, which will take place at the FullTiltPoker.net poker room at Casino Cosmos in Moscow, Russia.

Coincidence?

Looks like the little "war" between Mr. Lipscomb and the brother-sister combination of Howard Lederer and Annie Duke has apread to both the Caribbean and Europe.

For us "neutrals", we will certainly watch with interest to see how this feud unfolds.

Wanna bet some money that the Lipscomb vs Lederer/Duke feud will eventually spread to mainland China as well?

I would not bet against that happening if I were you.

Oliver, what is the nature and history of this so-called feud you speak of?

Also, is it necessarily something other than a coincidence? I mean, they have to schedule the events sometime, somewhere, right?
