Canadian Poker Tour & Canadian Poker Championships

cp2002 · Apr 30,2005, 06:28 PM

Greetings everyone.

I'm doing some research on Canadian poker tours. So far I've found two:

http://www.canadianpokertour.com/ (Canadian Poker Championships)

http://www.canadianpokerplayer.com/cpt/ (Canadian Poker Tour)

Which one of these tours is the bigger one? It is a bit confusing since the CPC's website is called CanadianPokerTour.com. These tours are not the same right?

I appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks.

The Canadian Poker Tour is running right now, but it is basically a way that the magazine Canadian Poker Player is
getting people to read their magazine and drive them to online poker....land based casinos are foolish for letting
them call their tournaments canadian poker tour.

the guy who owns www.canadianpokerchampionship.com owns the www.canadianpokertour.com domains and
apparently is trying to set up the official annual Canadian Poker Championship.
we're pulling for him...somebodys got to clean up this mess and confusion!

Actually, nobody here (that I know of) has anything to do with the Canadian Poker Player magazine 'administration'.Â* Dave Scharf used to be co-owner of the mag, but no longer.Â* I write columns for the magazine, and enjoy doing so, but that is as far as my involvement extends.Â*

If you'd like a response from the people in charge of CPP magazine, it's probably best to email them.Â* Randy can be reached at Randy@canadianpokerplayer.com

Hope that helps!

What criticism? Why would those 2 join together? and what's the best for us?

Lots to say, not much usefullness in your words.
