On 2017 partypoker has the goal to offer the best live series to their players. Thet announced his world tour called partypoker LIVE a few days ago. They decided to present John Duttie , founder and former CEO of the European Poker Tour, as the president for the tour.

“I have been impressed with the progress of partypoker and in particular the number of trusted, experienced and well respected individuals and organizations who have chosen to put their support behind the partypoker brand,” Duthie said in a release. “I believe there is a gap in the market for an operator whose primary focus is poker and who will listen to and work with the poker community, as this was something that was absolutely key to the growth and success of the EPT.”

The tour will have six stops among Canada and Europe with guarantees from half a million euros to six million pounds.
