Weve been working with Marc Joseph and the SunBet Poker Tour for over six years, and were excited to take this partnership to new levels, said GPITHM Head of Partnerships Roland Boothby.
The fact that we will see a THMC in the Southern Hemisphere in 2023 demonstrates the global reach of the GPI/THM brand and its position as the live poker authority. Knowing that we are heading to Cape Town with Sunbet Poker Tour and MJPT is a testament to Marc, who has set about creating the premier poker tour in Africa, and we couldnt be happier to be linking up with them in one of the world most stunning cities. We hope to grow the Cape Town Million at Sunbet Poker Tour Cape Town into a staple event on the global poker calendar.
The Hendon Mob, poker’s ultimate live tournament database, envisions making this event a staple on the poker calendar each year. Global Poker Index/THM have a longstanding partnership with the MonsterJam Poker Tour (MJPT) and together support efforts to grow the game in Africa.
