The World Poker Tour heads to Oz for WPT Australia

The World Poker Tour heads to Australia for the first time with the coordinates for The Star Gold Coast typed into its GPS.

If you’re the type of person who refuses to wear makeup because of the chemicals, thinks a yeast infection is akin to developing bubonic plague, and turn the Internet router off nightly, afraid that wi-fi will give you cancer of the brain then you’d better give Australia’s Gold Coast a miss.

Gold Coast leaders want to turn their home into the leading digital city by 2021, and to kickstart the revolution, they are implanting the vastest LoRaWAN network in Australia, with more than 600,000 sensors and real-time management tools prime to make your decisions for you.

I turn my router off at night, but the folks at the World Poker Tour (WPT) aren’t worried about brain cancer type things. For the first time in the tour’s illustrious history, they are setting sail for Australia, and the Gold Coast will be their home.
