"DESTINATION LAS VEGAS"
AN INCREDIBLE POKER LEAGUE OPPORTUNITY FROM THE FREE POKER NETWORK®

Troy Mattson from Brainerd (pictured sitting next to Phil Gordon) was one of 2 MPL players to win a seat to the WSOP last year.  In 2008, more Minnesota Poker League players than ever will get a chance to do the same.

NEW NATIONAL FORMAT

Twenty (20) $2,600 preliminary event packages will be awarded at State Championships across the nation in our new national format with at least 10 prize packages awarded for Minnesotans!

National Final.  All state championship winners (approx 40 players nationwide) will compete in an EXCLUSIVE national final in Las Vegas for an additional $10,000 main event package.  It is possible to win 2 seats to the World Series of Poker with this new format!

UP TO $5,000 CASH up for grabs in the 2nd chance freerolls at the state championships nationwide.  So if you bust out early at the final, you'll still be able to compete for great 2nd chance cash prizes.  All tournaments are FREE!

LEAGUE CHAMPS earn commemorative medallion.

QUALIFYING DETAILS
