Following the overwhelming success of SKYCITY poker tournaments during 2010, SKYCITY is delighted to announce the SKYCITY New Zealand Poker Open is to be held over Queen’s Birthday weekend at SKYCITY Auckland.

The final day will take place on Monday 6 June ending with a 2011 SKYCITY New Zealand Poker Open champion.
Peter Lawrence, SKYCITY Auckland
General Manager – Table Games said:
“It’s great to
see that the first tournament for SKYCITY Auckland for 2011
is aimed at bringing the best domestic players together.
This tournament will show the poker community of New Zealand
who the real players are.”
