In order to get to the tournament venue, the Enjoy Casino & Resort, I had to fly into Santiago and take an hour ride, graciously arranged by LAPT Travel, to Viña del Mar on the Pacific coast. That’s why I jumped at the chance to cover the LAPT Chile event when it was announced as the first stop of Season 5. I had a great time at both events learning new cultures, covering top-notch poker tournaments and meeting new people. A year later, Colombia became my second LAPT. In late 2010, I had the opportunity to attend my first Latin American Poker Tour event, the Grand Final in Rosario Argentina.
