Dusk Till Dawn

The World Poker Tour in the UK

Since 2013, the UK has hosted World Poker Tour tournaments in its various formats: National, DeepStacks, WPT500 and the Main Tour. The last time the WPT visited Britain was last year with the WPT500 played at Dusk Till Dawn. It was one of the largest WPT events in UK history, boasting 895 entries. Based on the numbers that the WPT Prime circuit is doing this year, there’s a good chance they’ll surpass that total!
