LAPT Vina del Mar
After the PCA and Sao Paulo, the PokerStars Latin American Poker Tour Season 4 moves further to Chile and the ‘Garden City’ of Vina del Mar, making an exciting comeback after the cancelation of last year´s event due to a devastating earthquake.
Argentina's Fabian Ortiz became the Season 2 LAPT Vina del Mar champion in what was one of the most exciting comebacks in poker history. The story of the one-time disco owner's rise, fall, and phoenix-like ascent to the championship is one that will be told time and again. Simply put, when the final table reached four players, Ortiz had half a big blind and from there went on to become LAPT champion.
The tournament will be a four day event, hosted at Enjoy Vina del Mar Casino and Resort, March 17th-20th, 2011. The Main Event has a buy-in of $1,000 + $100 entry fee, and the field will be capped at 350 players.
Just 75 minutes from the country’s capital Santiago, Vina del Mar is known as one of Chile’s biggest tourist destinations. With a near perfect climate and plenty to do away from the poker tables, LAPT Vina del Mar will be a superb experience!
