There is nothing like the feeling of bagging and tagging your chips after a long day of a poker battle. This is especially true for hundreds of opening day players in the Battle of Malta Main Event who will bag their chips into Day 2 already in the money. Players typically return excitedly and rip open their bags as instructed. This simple activity creates unnecessary plastic waste due to the one-time use of the bag. The Battle of Malta was conscious of its use of one-time-use plastic bags and wanted to find a way to reduce its carbon Footprint.
A solution is on its way thanks to a partnership recently forged with Poker Against Plastic Pollution which specializes in reducing plastic waste by supplying the Battle of Malta biodegradable poker chip bags starting with our 2024 Battle of Malta Spring Edition on April 3-10, 2024 at our home Casino Malta by Olympic Casino. We were looking for ways for the Battle of Malta to become greener while reducing the carbon footprint of the event,” shared Casino Malta International VIP and Events Manager Diane Fenech. “We c ouldn’t be more thrilled to join forces with Poker Against Plastic Pollution in their mission to reduce plastic pollution and create awareness surrounding environmental issues.”
We hope you are one of the many players to earn a biodegradable bag during the upcoming Battle of Malta on April 3-10.
