A trio of tales from the World Poker Tour including contrasting fortunes at the recent WPT500 in Barcelona and a new content distribution deal with Unreel.

Back in August when the colour green hung from the limbs of trees, the morning sunshine quenched its thirst on the dewy grass, and an army of shorebirds followed the blueprint of life, partypoker Live cut a deal to partner with the World Poker Tour (WPT) for the next four years.

Part of that deal was a joint event in Europe’s most successful live tournament venue: The Casino Barcelona – a place that must lie at the end of all of poker’s rainbows.

But it seems with vast numbers comes a lack of attention to detail.
