CEO Poker TV Sponsorships
The CEO Poker Tour has been building a head of steam lately with events at the Trump Taj Mahal and upcoming events at the Venetian, and they have recently announced television and tournament sponsorship opportunities. The move to drum up business via these sponsorship opportunities is similar to what other, more venerable poker series do, such as the World Poker Tour and the much older World Series of Poker. In the case of the CEO Poker Tour, the sponsorships will range from $500 to $300,000, the high price tag being for title sponsorship of the tour and TV show.
