A Tour Built for the Players: The PPC
![[user272102]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
It started out as two friends running bar leagues back in 2005 and has emerged into one of the up and coming poker tours in all of the world. The future is bright for Bryan Oulton and Sandy Swartzbaugh, the two responsible for running the PPC Poker Tour. They've moved on from bars to ballrooms at luxury hotels in Aruba and are expecting record growth in the upcoming year.
One of the reasons for the success of the tour is the potential to win a trip to Aruba for a "poker-cation" as Swartzbaugh likes to call it. "People like playing our tournaments because of the allure of the lower buy-ins for our Main Events. That and they have the potential to win a trip to Aruba and go to a beautiful tropical island and play poker with pros like 2012 World Poker Tour Player of the Year Joe Serock and Ronnie Bardah, the first player to ever cash in five straight World Series of Poker Main Events."
With a record already assured in this years $200,000 Guaranteed Main Event, the PPC Poker Tour is looking forward to their third season. They will host over 30 Main Events and will be adding stops to Nevada, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. Things will get underway in less than a week at the Silks Poker Room at Tampa Bay Downs from October 22nd thru the 26th including a $225 buy-in, $50,000 guaranteed Main Event.
"We're only growing," said Swartzbaugh. "We'll be adding stops all over the country in 2015 and things are only going to get bigger and better for the PPC."
