MSPT Canterbury Park

Season 6 of the Mid-States Poker Tour is on a roll.

Earlier this month, the tour held its second-largest stop in history when Jason Mirza won the MSPT Potawatomi in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for $147,529, and then this past weekend Greg Himmelbrand won the first-ever MSPT Maryland Live! for $72,910.

This weekend, the MSPT returns home to Canterbury Park in Shakopee, Minnesota, which played host to the very first MSPT back in the day. Since then, Canterbury Park has become a staple on the MSPT. This weekend, players �� who only need to be 18 years old to play �� will have the chance at a $200,000 guaranteed prize pool for just an $1,100 buy-in.

"The MSPT is excited to return to Minnesota and to visit the stop where it all began," gushed MSPT owner and operator Bryan Mileski. "Canterbury Park is one of the Midwest's premiere venues, and in addition to great cash games and top-notch food options, the tournament tables are always full. We're looking forward to yet another successful MSPT Canterbury Park."

The MSPT topped off Season 5 at Canterbury Park back in December when 432 entrants took to the felt to battle for a $106,483 first-place prize. Tour regular Peixin Liu ultimately finished as the last man standing and took down the biggest live score of his career.

Among those expected to be at Canterbury Park are MSPT Team Pros Blake Bohn, Matt Alexander, and Nick Pupillo, who was recently the subject of a PokerNews feature piece. In addition, Mark Hodge, who currently sits atop the MSPT Season 6 Player of the Year leaderboard, will be looking for more POY points.

The PokerNews Live Reporting team will be on hand to capture all the action from that event, and players will have the opportunity to use the MyStack app to update their hands and chip counts straight into the live blog.
