It’s nice that the management of the Altai Palace casino sees potential in the series, and we continue cooperation.

Cooperation with LotosPoker – Altai Poker Travel satellites

The LotosPoker poker room collaborates with Altai Poker Travel and is giving away 2 tournament packages, which include a buy-in for the main tournament of the series (30 thousand rubles) and accommodation at the Aya Hotel (room for 1 person for 2 days).

Every day from January 25 to February 7 there are satellites on LotosPoker, which can be accessed in the “Tournaments - Live-Events” tab.

We draw the attention of players that for satellites (including those that will take place during Altai Poker Travel) the “1 ticket per hand” rule applies. A player can take part in the selection an unlimited number of times, and if he wins a ticket to the main APT event again, he receives a prize amount in “event money”. The so-called “tournament currency” is not exchanged for money until the end of the series, but it can pay buy-ins for any tournaments (for example, online satellites), make re-entry and use it as a buy-in for cash games. If the “event money” portion was not used, it can be cashed out or transferred to the next APT series.

Other entertainment

The organizers of Altai Poker Travel have planned a whole series of entertaining intellectual games called “Altai Palace Club”. Invitations were sent to the best preference players for tournaments in Leningradka, Deberts and Belot. An open knockout in the “throwing fool” is planned, as well as a heads-up in the Chinese “Pineapple”.

If desired, it is possible to organize duels or mass competitions in darts, billiards, and backgammon. There will also be a party for the series participants at Altai Palace or one of the nightclubs in Gorno-Altaisk.
