Now entering its eighth year in the business, MJPT takes pride in bringing players the best poker experience in beautiful destinations all over the country. This the first of six festivals lined up all year. Each location equally stunning.
For players that happen to be traveling in this part of the world or are looking to tackle new territory, give South Africa consideration. It will provide the mix of both fun at the tables and mind blowing nature experience.
As for the fields, poker in South Africa may be small compared to countries in Asia however the market is rapidly growing and there is certainly no lack of competitive spirit. In the days ahead, popular crowd favorites such as the 2 Million ZAR guaranteed Mega Million (David Rosenthal Memorial), Mystery Bounty, and Little Slam will fill up the room, culminating at the arrival of the Main Event 5 Million ZAR (~$274,500) guaranteed. All of these events offer great structures at affordable prices and are offered at every festival.
On the costlier side, High rollers will also be busy with two events scheduled and a new one, the Business-Persons Super High Roller Invitational. Excitement surrounds this event. Fourteen of South Africa’s finest players will be participating which includes Jarred Salomon, Darren Kramer, Ahmed Karrim, Ronit Chamani, Kineth Pasher, and Rudolph Fourie.
