The Ultimate League Poker Series
The World League Poker Championships brings together players from the largest poker leagues around the world including the United Kingdom, United States, and Canada.
This isn't just one single tournament: it's the ultimate 5-day league poker series with parties every night, including our Main-Themed party (details below!).
You will not want to miss out on this awesome experience! It's GREAT POKER, GREAT PEOPLE, and GREAT PARTIES!
The Experience
This is an experience you won't find ANYWHERE else. You aren't coming for just one event. This is a series of cash tournaments and parties with fellow league poker players.
Plus, the winner of the 2022 WLPC MAIN EVENT will not only take home the big cash 1st Place prize and the WLPC Trophy, but they will be enshrined in the World Tavern Poker Hall of Fame just like past Champions!
We've said it before and we'll say it again - this is an experience you will never forget. Play poker and party in Las Vegas and win tons of cash with your league poker friends. No matter what happens, you can't lose!
The Poker
Tons of amazing events will take place, with cash, Major Event tournament seats, and plenty of bragging rights on the line. Whether it's the WLPC Main Event, the World Tavern Poker National Championships & National TOC with huge prizes and WSOP seats on the line, or the big cash prizes in our featured events, there's plenty of opportunities to win big in Vegas!
Cash tournaments are open to participating League players with an Access Pass. League-specific Championship events are open to the qualified players from that league.
WLPC MAIN EVENT
This is the event you have been waiting for! Hundreds of league poker players will take place in this epic event. William McGrotty, Jacob Miller, Chris Nunes, Kim Mercer, Allison Leivers, Tyrone Smith, and Jim Pearce have become World Champions - will you be next?
BAD BEAT BOOTY BOUNTY TOURNAMENT
This will be one of the most exciting events of the WLPC! Not only is it a Bounty event, but you will have chances to earn some BIG additional prizes during the tournament!
...AND SO MUCH MORE!
The World League Poker Championships features dozens of events! It's the biggest poker party of the year! Check out the schedule below - more details are coming soon!
Full schedule is subject to change.
Play and Party in Sin City!
Every day and every night of the World League Poker Championships is a party! But the PIRATE-THEMED MAIN PARTY will feature experiences and entertainment that you soon will not forget!
Party ticket holders will enjoy a free buffet (must have a Party ticket to enter), a cash bar, a costume contest, a special event featuring fun and engaging entertainment, and more from the WLPC team.
We'll have some great costume ideas as we get closer to the event. Stay tuned!
Book Your Room at The Orleans
Nothing gives you the full experience of the World League Poker Championships like staying on site!
In years past, several players tried to save a few bucks by staying at a cheaper hotel. But what they spent in cab/Uber fare and travel time (plus missing out on so much of the event) just didn't add up. Stay on site!

MOONSHINER'S UPGRADE!
**PLEASE NOTE: Moonshiner's Upgrades are Only Valid with Access Pass. This is an optional upgrade for the Poker Only and Party & Poker Access Pass - it is NOT a standalone item!
Most of the tournaments in the World League Poker Championships will be held in a HUGE Ballroom at The Orleans. Because this is not traditional gaming space, a cash bar will be available (free drinks while you play usually applies to the Poker Room and Casino Floor).
However, we've negotiated to bring the MOONSHINER'S UPGRADE back for the WLPC! This means for $30, you can enjoy FREE DRINKS (but don't forget to tip the waitstaff!) while playing in our events in the Ballroom.
Moonshiner's Upgrades will also be available to purchase for Access Pass holders at The Orleans.
EVENT SCHEDULE
The 2022 World League Poker Championships will take place over 5 days this November, including the World Tavern Poker National Championships, the Main-Themed Party, the WLPC Main Event and so much more!
KEY NOTES:
-- Dealer add-ons are optional additions to your starting chip stack. Dealers usually make much more money dealing cash tables as opposed to tournament tables. Offering an add-on helps them out and gives you more chips to play with. It's a win win!
-- All tournaments are subject to Nevada Gaming Commission approval and can be changed at any time without prior notice.
-- Events with WTP/TD in the title (or Indiv. Leagues) are League-only tournaments and are open only to those who qualified from their respective leagues.

Frequently Asked Questions
Note: Don't forget that Daylight Savings Time ends during the WLPC!
The WLPC runs from Saturday, November 5th until Thursday, November 10th. Daylight Savings Time ends on Sunday, November 6th at 2am Vegas time. That means when the clock strikes 2am, it will actually be 1am. Make sure you factor this into your plans!
Is the World League Poker Championships a single event or a tournament series?
BOTH! The WLPC is a tournament series spanning five days with over a dozen cash events and awesome parties throughout. The World League Poker Championships is also a tournament, where players from participating leagues all around the world compete for the big 1st place cash prize and the title of World Champion.
When will Registration be open?
Registration will be open starting at 10am on Saturday. Registration will open between 9am and 10am each day thereafter, and run to around 4-5pm.
Will I need a Players Card to play in tournaments at The Orleans?
Yes, and you can get your 'B-Connected' Players Card after going through WLPC Registration. You will be directed where to go to get your card.
Does purchasing an Access Pass include my buy-ins for the cash tournaments?
No it does not. Purchasing an Access Pass gives you access to the cash tournaments during the series. Tournament buy-ins are separate and must be paid by the player to enter a tournament.
What is the Moonshiner's Upgrade?
The Mooonshiner's Upgrade for $30 allows you to enjoy free drinks while playing in a WLPC event in the Ballroom at The Orleans. It is only valid with an Access Pass, however (it is NOT a standalone item).
Can I purchase the Moonshiner's Upgrade before the event? During the event?
Yes to both! It's best to buy it while available online, but you will be able to purchase a Moonshiner's Upgrade on-site at WLPC Registration as well.
Why are there resort fees?
Resort fees have become commonplace at every property of note. We've been able to hold them off in the past, but unfortunately, these fees will be charged moving forward for regular room booking. However, it's still worthwhile to stay on site! Our special rates are hard to beat, and you simply can't beat the convenience (saves money, time, and energy) of staying on-site. Plus, resort fees at The Orleans include room Wi-Fi, access to a Fitness Center, in-room coffee, and more.
Will there be tickets to the Main Themed Party for sale during the WLPC?
Possibly! Main Party tickets may be available for sale on site (price TBA) depending on availability (we expect a HUGE crowd again this year!). But we highly recommend purchasing a Party & Poker Access Pass to get the full WLPC experience.
