The North American Poker Tour (NAPT), sponsored by PokerStars.net , starts in January 2010 at the famous PokerStars.net Caribbean Adventure (PCA) at the Atlantis Resort, Bahamas  and will make stops in some of America's finest poker venues. Among the first stops is The Venetian in the world’s gaming capital Las Vegas and Connecticut, home to the exclusive and exciting casino complex Mohegan Sun. Even before the cards are in the air the NAPT already promises to become one of the world's leading poker tours.

Thanks to PokerStars.net 's huge number of online qualifying satellites, thousands of poker players travel every year to compete in live events across Europe, the US, Asia Pacific and the Caribbean. Many have returned home from these live events with enormous wins in their pockets.

With the launch of the NAPT, PokerStars.net is yet again bringing a whole new dimension to poker and helping turn it into a truly global sport.
