The World Poker Tour has announced two exciting new partnerships with Education Investment LTD and Barrière Group that will see the WPT National Series feature in Cambodia and Deauville.

Hendon Mob flag collectors may be interested to note that the World Poker Tour (WPT) has recently partnered with Education Investment LTD in a deal that will see two WPT National Series events held in Cambodia.

Father Christmas will have to fill his sack with poker chip sets as the first of the two events, WPT National Thailand, will take place Dec 22-29, 2016 at the Holiday Palace Casino & Resort in Poipet, Cambodia.

There will be a THB 37,400 ($1,100) buy-in Main Event consisting of three starting flights, Dec 22, 23 & 26. December 24 & 25 will be a day off for Main Event players, for obvious reasons, but the action will continue on those dates with side events and a special guest party.
