League Championship to be held on:
October 4th, 2025 @ 3pm at Pop's Poker
Pop's Poker League championship rules
League
Pop's Poker League Championship (PPLC) rewards PERFORMERS and REGULARS!
$5 will be collected from every entry from each qualifying tournament (from the prizepool), which will be held as the prizepool, for a “league championship” tournament at the end of a specified qualifying period, for all qualified players.
The league championship will be held at Pop's Poker on a specific date and time to be posted on the website and inside at Pop’s Poker, prior to the start of each series...see schedule for dates.
How Players Qualify for the PPLC
In order to qualify, you must play a “qualifying” tournament. The buyin and fees will be posted, including the $5 league fee for each tournament (if applicable), prior to the start of the tournament. Pop's reserves the right to hold tournaments that are NOT qualifying tournaments in addition to the qualifying tournaments.
The number of PPLC seats will be limited to a specific amount (typically 40 seats) that will be set prior to the start of the series and posted along with the schedule online (www.popspoker.com) and at Pop’s Poker.
Players may qualify for a seat in the PPLC in one of two ways, by either being a top "performer" or a top "regular" as follows:
PERFORMERS --- Pop’s will calculate your total cumulative “cashes” and rank you relative to other players’ cashes. The top “performers” (½ of the available seats) will be guaranteed a seat.
REGULARS --- We will calculate your total cumulative “buyins” and rank you relative to other players’ buyins. The top “regulars” (½ of the available seats) will be guaranteed a seat.
If there are ties for the last spot at the cut line for either performers or regulars, the players who are tied at the cut line will qualify for the PPLC and receive an invitation.
You cannot qualify for more than one seat, even if you technically qualify in different groups of qualifiers. For example: It is possible that a highly ranked "regular" is also a highly ranked “performer” yet that player will only be awarded one seat.
Players cannot substitute another player for their seat. Qualified players must be the one who plays in that seat. Specific seats and table assignments will be determined at the point of registration on the day of the PPLC.
If a qualified player does not show up to play in the PPLC by the end of the late registration period on the day of the PPLC, their seat will be forfeited.
