KOntenders Players Are Winning Big with Bar Poker Open!

The Bar Poker Open is an enormous community of bar poker players, a series of events with great guarantees, fun parties, and a National Championship Invitational. All events include Final Tables played on the same final table set of the WPT(c) including a Live-Streamed National Championship Final Table.

Our top players are invited to play twice a year against top players in the other Bar Poker Open Affiliate leagues, in the National Championships with minimum prize pools totaling $300,000!

Play in a sanctioned bar and place in the top three. Your TD will then get your name and email address so you can receive an invite to play online (tournaments are held every Sunday.) Roughly the top 4% from the online event will win a seat to the Bar Poker Open Main Event.

In addition to the seat, the first place online player every weekend is awarded a travel and hotel package worth $700!
