Another coup for the Gold Coast's tourism industry with the World Poker Tour heading our way.

There will be 10 different events running until October 7, with the main event on October 4.
The news was announced on Twitter on Wednesday by Lynn Gilmartin, the Australian host of Fox Sports World Poker Tour.
