The World Poker Tour released the schedule for season 7 of their popular live poker tournament series today. Season 7 will see the WPT visit 14 destinations, including stops at the Borgata, Bellagio, Foxwoods and The Bike.

The schedule is lacking some familiar stops, as expected, including the discontinuation of the WPT event at The Mirage.

Excerpt from the announcement:

“To ensure the World Poker Tour continues to deliver the best experience possible, Season VII features a strong lineup of stops that have consistently proven to be player favorites and continue to see growth season after season,” said WPT Founder, President and CEO, Steve Lipscomb. “Industry trends and player feedback were instrumental in creating the schedule, which focuses on marquis events to drive increased field sizes, riches prize pools and more media coverage for players. The schedule also gives players more opportunity to participate in satellites and other events and allows the WPT and the Casino partners to focus on bigger promotional opportunities around each event.”
