About Us<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"WASP_logo\"<\/a>We are excited to announce our newly formed tour to bring renowned poker games to all deaf, hard of hearing, interpreters, and family members of deaf or hard of hearing adult poker players of all languages in different regions of America. We will be hosting poker tournaments at different casinos. The new tour is officially named World ASL Series of Poker (WASP) and has three owners: Jay Levine of San Antonio, Texas, Matt Erickson of Austin, Texas, and Dan Stoddard of Austin, Texas.<\/p>\n

We recognize there is a gap between the desires and needs of these poker players and the lack of established poker games in different regions of America. This tour will bring the poker gaming experience closer, thus creating diversity and interesting challenges for you!<\/p>\n

Jay Levine has 10 years of experience in operating large poker events and is involved with several poker leagues. Jay\u2019s WASP tour responsibilities will be the management decisions and managing public affairs.<\/p>\n

Matt Erikson has 9 years of experience managing poker leagues and managing large local poker series. Matt\u2019s WASP tour responsibilities will be daily tour operations and making arrangements with law offices and casinos.<\/p>\n
