“I’m really looking forward to joining the players in Punta Cana,” said Larry Colcy, aka The Gamblogger, who will be producing daily video reports from the Hard Rock Casino Punta Cana. “I’ll have tournament results as well as interviews with the Living the Dream players and other players at the tournament. I’ll also follow them around with my video camera as they enjoy the resort!”
CPT Punta Cana will be at the luxurious five-star Punta Cana Hard Rock Casino and Hotel November 3rd to 8th. Last November, American poker pro Ari Engel defeated a field of 507 to claim the trophy and $177,045 for his victory in the 2014 Punta Cana Poker Classic. Cheap, direct flights from North America as well as the mix of amateur and pros make the CPT Punta Cana an event not to be missed.
