PokerStats Go Russian With New Poker Tour

Bit more of a news item than a standard strategy outbound link today... this really shows (as if it needed showing) that online poker is no longer something American like it was a few years ago - but a truly global phenomenon.

Two tournaments are scheduled in Russia this winter under the heading 'RPT' or Russian Poker Tour... these take place in St Petersburg at the end of Jan ($5k buy-in) and in Moscow at the end of Feb ($10k buy-in). You can win your seat at PokerStars by entering one of a number of sub-qualifiers or a supersatellite - had a quick look and not too many available at the moment, however we expect these to come in once the Aussie Millions and PCA are underway in just a few days time.
