Two snippets from the World Poker Tour including Demo Kiripoulos winning the WPT Fallsview Main Event, and Chris Torina and the team at WPT DeepStacks returning to the Rivers Casino for two more events during 2019. 

One of the problems with hosting a poker tournament on the cusp of Niagara Falls is the slight chance you might throw yourself over the edge.

You have to wonder if that’s how Andrew Pantling is feeling after losing a commanding chip lead at the final table of the CAD 5,000 WPT Fallsview Poker Classic bowing out in third place.

Playing CAD 5,000 buy-in events is a little like offering the Queen of England tea and toast for Pantling – after all, he competed and finished sixth in the 2016 Big One for One Drop – but after ploughing through a record 602-entrants, the businessman would have wanted to have gone all the way.
