Conrad Jupiters and Conrad Treasury Casinos will be joining the inaugural season of the PokerStars Australia New Zealand Poker Tour as the new final event. The unique format will incorporate the event being held at two venues concurrently and the opportunity to firmly place Queensland as a new and exciting addition on the Australian poker tournament map.

What makes this event even better is that there is no admin fee for ANZPT Queensland. The entire $2,500 buy-in per player goes back into the prizepool!

ANZPT Queensland will be a five day event held from August 5-9, 2009 at both Treasury Casino in the State’s capital of Brisbane and Jupiters Casino on the Gold Coast. The event has a cap of 280 players plus 20 alternates. All players qualifying through to Day 3 will play at Jupiters Casino. Those players who commenced play at Brisbane and make the final table will receive a complimentary night’s accommodation at Jupiters Casino Hotel.
