Venetian Launches Live Streams With Card Player Poker Tour In February

The Venetian Poker Room is the newest on the Las Vegas Strip, having opened last August. On the heels of that development comes another exciting offering for poker fans: the debut of a streaming studio at Venetian Resort Las Vegas in 2025, with live broadcasts produced and distributed by PokerGO. The room will be dedicated to filming vlogging sessions, big cash games, and tournament final tables, with more details coming soon.

The first two events featured on the stream will be back-to-back $1 million guaranteed $1,600 buy-in no-limit hold’em tournaments. First up will be the Mid-States Poker Tour event running Feb. 5-10. Then players will get another shot at glory with the $1,600 Card Player Poker Tour event from Feb. 12-16.

These two huge events are the headliners of the 2025 Venetian DeepStack Extravaganza I festival, which spans from Feb. 3-23, with 35 tournaments on offer featuring more than $3.2 million in guaranteed prize money.

There is something for everyone on the schedule, with buy-ins ranging from $200 up to $1,600 and plenty of formats to choose from, including bounty events, a seniors event, a ladies tag team event, and a Big O bounty event.

The CPPT Venetian $1,000,000 guaranteed $1,600 main event features three starting flights, each beginning at 11:10 AM local time on Feb. 12-14. Those who made it through those flights will return at 11:00 on Feb. 15 for day 2 action. The live streamed final table is set for Feb. 16 at noon.

This will be the second time that a CPPT event has been held inside the new Venetian Poker Room, with the first taking place back in September. That event saw Baurzhan Akimov beat out a field of 343 entries in a $1,100 buy-in tournament to earn $63,943.

The Newest and Biggest Poker Room in Las Vegas

The Venetian Resort Las Vegas opened its new poker room in August, unveiling a fresh space on the second floor of the Grand Canal Shoppes at Palazzo.

Boasting 14,000 sq. ft. with room for 51 tables, the poker room is the largest on the Las Vegas Strip, and the new location now offers much more convenient access to numerous dining options and the parking garage.

The new room offers players complimentary self-serve coffee and soda, USB and USB-C charging ports at every seat, tableside restaurant ordering, and free parking for anyone who plays more than three hours. The venue has numerous TVs, a sports betting kiosk, a dedicated restroom, and the soon-to-open streaming studio.

Players are reporting that they are happy with the quieter atmosphere, no longer having to deal with loud slot machines ringing nearby. Others have mentioned the air quality, as smoking is prohibited in the Grand Canal Shoppes.
