Last month, Casino de Montreal opened the largest completely automated poker room in the world. With 25 PokerPro tables, the new poker room is by far the single largest poker room with only automatic tables. Now the folks at Casino de Montreal have hosted the world’s largest multi-table poker tournament ever run on solely automated poker tables. The entire tournament was run with only four staff members, who spent a good deal of time with little or nothing to do.
The $225 buy-in tournament was sold-out two weeks in advance, with a record 240 players vying for a piece of the prize pool.
“Running a tournament of this magnitude is what we always envisioned for PokerPro. We are pleased with the success of this tournament and proud of our partnership with Casino de Montreal,”
says Chris Halligan, CEO of PokerTek, manufacturer of the PokerPro tables.
“The Québécois players have embraced automated poker, as validated by the response to this tournament.”
Currently, Casino de Montreal’s 100% PokerPro room offers cash games, daily Sit-and- Go tournaments, plus weekly and monthly multi-table tournaments.
