Season X of the World Poker Tour is nearing its halfway point and will boast an impressive 2012 schedule that will include eight Main Events, both domestic and international. Among the stops in the United States is a return to the Commerce Casino in February for the Los Angeles Poker Classic; the Bay 101 Shooting Star in March; and back-to-back Florida stops in April at the second Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown and the inaugural stop at the Jacksonville Poker Room.

Internationally, the WPT will be crossing the pond for three Main Events including a new stop in Dublin, Ireland, in January, followed by a return visit to Venice, Italy, in February. The capstone of the European events will be the WPT Vienna in March, which set the record last year for largest field at a WPT Main Event in Europe.

In May, Season X will conclude with the WPT World Championship at the Bellagio. That event is one of the year��s most prestigious tournaments and boasts a laundry list of winners:
