2007 saw the WPT enjoy its second stop in Niagara Falls during the halfway point of WPT Season Six. The stars came out to shine as three of the top four spots were all taken by well known pros. Barry Greenstein finished in fourth place for just over $300,000, while amateur poker player David Cloutier from Brampton, Ontario took home third place for just over $370,000. Jonathan Little made a statement in 2007 by taking home second place in the tournament for $714,000 and ended up earning the WPT Season Six POTY award by finishing the WPT season with four cashes, including one win. Poker pro Scott Clements took home the win for his only Main Event cash in Season Six for over $1,350,000.
2006 was the first time the WPT came to Canada, and Canada did not disappoint.

Sagle took the consolation prize of over $650,000 with his second cash of the WPT Niagara series.
There has been a buzz around the Toronto area that a lot of big name pros will be making their presence felt during the week-long series. It is rumoured that Vanessa Selbst will be in attendance. Canadian pro Mike McDonald has also confirmed via Twitter that he will be playing the Main Event.
