World Poker Congress Coincides with EPT Budapest

Mix of Poker Industry Figures and EPT Players Descend Upon WPC 2008


Tournament Director, Matt Savage The third annual World Poker Congress will be held on Oct. 29 and 30 in Budapest. If those dates ring a bell, it is because the European Poker Tour’s Budapest tournament is due to play out at the same time. This is expected to boost attendance at the conference and make for a good mix of poker insiders and players.

Clarion Gaming’s Head of Conferences, Dawn Kirkwood, said, “Hopefully, this will lead to a players’ panel to close the conference unlike any we’ve ever had!”

The conference program was designed in conjunction with the European Casino Association. With key speakers such as Steven Lipscomb, CEO of WPT Enterprises; Chris Parker, CEO of the Asian Poker Tour; and Matt Savage, acclaimed tournament director and founder of Savage Tournaments, the WPC intends to give an overall in-depth look at trends in both online and live poker industries.
