PokerStars has announced the 2017 dates and venues for the PokerStars Championship and Festivals. And Cristiano Ronaldo and Dwayne Wade challenge you to #raiseit.

PokerStars has announced the 2017 dates and locations for their brand spanking new PokerStars Championships and PokerStars Festivals.

Back in August, officials from PokerStars announced their intention to consolidate all of their live tournaments within the PokerStars Championships and PokerStars Festivals banner.

The move made sense despite the sad loss of the European Poker Tour (EPT) and the regional tours that supported it such as the United Kingdom & Ireland Poker Tour (UKIPT), Latin American Poker Tour (LAPT), and France Poker Series (FPS). It also signified the end of relationships with The Aussie Millions and Brazilian Series of Poker Millions (BSOP).
