Casino Niagara is hosting its no-limit hold��em Fall Main Event. It is a $1,000 buy-in running October 15th-18th. The summer one was a massive success and this one is shaping up to be a big one too!
Also, if you're interested, Caesars Windsor and Pickering's Casino Resort are hosting daily poker tournaments on their respective schedules.

Kyle Anderson often streams his successes on Global Poker, goes by the screen name "KAA17" and aims to "help grow the game of poker to be fun and inclusive for everyone." Anderson's favorite experience so far was running deep in an online tournament, where he turned a freeroll into a $15,488 payday.
