There’s a lot in store for you in this post but before we get into it we wanted to remind everyone that we’re doing some scheduled maintenance at PokerStars VR on September 12th.
From 5am ET, PokerStars VR will be completely offline and you’ll see a short maintenance message before the game closes. There’s quite a bit of housekeeping to do, so we expect it might take around 24 hours to get everything right first time. Sorry for the inconvenience. You can read more about what we have planned, including details of our welcome back giveaway, here: https://luckyvr.zendesk.com/hc/en-us Now, on to the MPT! Metaverse Poker Tour - Final Results!
