Almost since the WPT initially came on the scene, Bay 101 Shooting Star has been one of its flagship events.įirst appearing on the schedule in Season 2, Bay 101 started out as a $5,200 event with $5,000 bounties placed upon a select group of star players. 'These five venues generated nearly 5,500 total entries and more than $23 million in total prize money during Season XV of the World Poker Tour, and we look forward to continued WPT success at these world-class properties during the second half of Season XVI,' said WPT CEO Adam Pliska.Ĭonspicuously absent from the schedule, however, is Bay 101 Shooting Star, the fan favorite bounty event that has graced the tour for over a decade.
Today the World Poker Tour released the remaining 2018 portion of its Season 16 Main Tour schedule, highlighting stops at Seminole Hard Rock, Borgata, Fallsview, Commerce and Thunder Valley.
