Casinò di Campione has signed a deal with Sisal and PokerStars to launch a dedicated poker room and host live poker events at its venue in Como, Italy, following a tender launched by Casinò di Campione last autumn.
By partnering with renowned venues like Casinò di Campione and working in tandem with experienced operators like Sisal, PokerStars is creating exciting opportunities for local and international poker players. This new venture is expected to boost Italy's poker scene by offering top-quality live events.
Under the terms of the agreement, Sisal S.p.A. will leverage the experience and prestige of PokerStars, another brand of the Flutter Group, to set up a poker room that will always be active and the organization of live poker tournaments at the Casino.
The Casino di Campione, located in the beautiful province of Como on the shores of Lake Lugano, has always been synonymous with one of the most popular and favorite poker destinations in Europe.
PokerStars has been widely recognised for offering the best live poker events in the world for over 20 years, and last week celebrated 20 years of the European Poker Tour in Barcelona.
PokerStars also operates state-of-the-art poker rooms around the world, including in the Hippodrome in London and Okada Manila in the Philippines.
The partnership will have an initial duration of four years, with the possibility of extension for a further three years. Further details on the opening times of the poker room and the first live tournament events will be communicated in the coming months.
