Matt Savage, Executive Tour Director of the World Poker Tour, to Appear at Casino Collectibles Show in Vegas

Founder of the Poker Tournament Directors Association will greet attendees June 13 during World’s Largest Casino Memorabilia Show

LAS VEGAS, NV, UNITED STATES, May 13, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- There’s a reason most poker tournaments go smoothly, and his name is Matt Savage. In 2001 he instigated a forum of poker tournament directors to tackle a serious problem that was plaguing the industry—inconsistent rules. Out of that meeting the Tournament Directors Assoc. (TDA) was formed, which created the worldwide standard for the tournament rules now used in most major tournaments including the World Poker Tour (WPT) and the World Series of Poker (WSOP).

Matt Savage, currently the Executive Tour Director of the WPT, still fields poker tournament questions almost every day. And now attendees of the non-profit Casino Collectibles Association’s annual show can ask him their poker tournament questions in person. Savage will be on hand to meet, greet, sign autographs and take selfies at the World’s Largest Casino Memorabilia Show at the South Point casino’s Exhibition Hall D on Friday June 13th at 9 am.

About the Show
The Casino Collectibles Association’s 32nd annual show runs June 12 -14, 2025. It is a must-see event for anybody who is fascinated by gaming history. The show features the greatest single-location collection of the iconic artifacts and mementos that bring casino history, and memories, to life. Many are symbols of past gaming grandeur that are gone or becoming rare; souvenirs from when the casinos wanted customers to pocket their branded keepsakes as reminders of a memorable experience. Things like gaming chips of all denominations, gaming tokens, dice, slot cards, playing cards, matchbooks, ashtrays, menus, dinnerware, swizzle sticks, casino photos, post cards, signs, table felt – just about anything a casino could put its name on. Over 50 worldwide dealers will be on hand to offer attendees the unique opportunity to examine, buy, sell, or trade casino collectibles.

The exposition is the annual educational effort of the Casino Collectibles Association, a non-profit club with hundreds of members who passionately share the hobby of collecting and preserving the past. Show hours are June 12, 10 AM – 5 PM (admission $10), June 13, 9 AM – Noon (admission $5), and admission is free from Noon to 4 PM June 13 and 9 AM – 4 PM June 14. Admission is free every day for First Responders, Active Military and Casino Employees with appropriate ID.
