Canada’s Coast to Coast Poker Championship Starts Today

The Coast to Coast Poker Championship kicks off today at the River Rock Casino Resort in Richmond, British Columbia, pitting East versus West and featuring 7 events over 9 days, with an estimated 2,650 players and $2.4 million prize pool. The main event offers a top prize of $377,300 based on a sell-out.

The Coast to Coast Poker Championships will be the first stop for WPT Canada and the tournament will be filmed to produce four one-hour episodes, which will air nationally in Canada. The style of broadcast will reflect the WPT.

“We are proud to host the first-ever Coast to Coast Poker Championships, which brings some of the best poker players in Canada while adding an East versus West rivalry to the classic game,” said Darryl Schiewe, BCLC’s vice president of casino gaming. “We have such good poker in Canada and with great poker rooms, tournaments and players there is no reason to leave Canada to play.”
