The Mandarin Poker Tour (or MPT) is the name of the loosely-organized group of poker players in Jacksonville who meet regularly every second Saturday at Jon & Ro Reddick's house in Jacksonville, Florida starting in 2007.
MPT is the spiritual successor to the Killearn Poker Tour in Tallahassee, Florida.
Derivation
The name was a play on the World Poker Tour, a televised series of international poker tournaments featuring most of the world's professional players.
World was replaced with Mandarin after the name of the southern region of Jacksonville where the Reddicks live.
