The World Poker Tour has created a new league for the female players on tour which will be called the World Poker Tour Ladies (WPTL). The tour will have five events on the season, with buy-ins ranging from $300 to $1,500 plus entry fee. Cities and casinos included on tour are:

Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa - Atlantic City, NJ
Commerce Casino - Los Angeles, CA
Bay 101 - San Jose, CA

The last date at the Bellagio will be the $1500 championship, running from April 13-14, 2008. The event will be broadcast on the Game Show Network where the WPT has found a new home. The WPTL will also donate 15% of the championship event towards finding a cure for breast cancer. Players will also have the chance to donate to the cause at each WPTL event.
