The Mid-States Poker Tour (MSPT), which has awarded more than $110 million in prize money since its debut in December 2009, is headed to California for the first time. From April 29-May 9, 2021, the tour will be at Sycuan Casino Resort in San Diego for 11 trophy events being deemed the “MSPT Showdown Series.”

The series will be bookended by two premier events. Kicking things off is a $360 buy-in, $100K GTD MSPT Regional Event, which will feature three starting flights. The following weekend, the series will culminate with a $1,100 buy-in, $200K GTD MSPT Main Event, which will also feature three starting flights. PokerNews will be on hand to offer live updates from both events.
