Queenstown is New Zealand’s foremost alpine resort, which is surrounded by beautiful mountains and clear blue lakes.
ANZPT Queenstown in Season 1 was hugely popular with players as each PokerStars.net qualifier enjoyed substantial tourism offerings in addition to main event entry, accommodation and travel cash.
This year SkyCity Auckland Casino will be part of this event making this a truly all New Zealand Event. Players will have the opportunity in Auckland to qualify though to DAY 3 of ANZPT Queenstown with all winners’ travel and accommodation expenses included.
