Registration will be open 6/26-7/26, so grab your poker friends and sign up to be a part of the local & social championship event open to all Bar Poker Open network players and guests.
PCT Season 32 Championship
The postponed Championship is tentatively rescheduled for Saturday, October 7th. We are finalizing the best deal we can with Borgata and MGM to possibly host this event. We are exploring all options to help make this a win-win for our players and Borgata. Hosting special events at the casino typically requires a guaranteed minimum attendance and we want to ensure that all our events are the best they can be for our league and our partners. More info coming in July.
Record Attendances!
Over half a dozen venues are recording the highest attendances right now in the month of June! Some new venues are hitting their largest ever, and some long-time venues are either recording their best attendances post-pandemic, or even the best attendances in the many years with the league. We thank you for the support of the venues as we are still looking to expand our calendar of events to provide more options and opportunities to play. Your support both in patronage of the venue with food/bev spending as well as coming out to the games and bringing new players is paramount in helping rebuild our business post-pandemic. Many venues we speak with are still hesitant on spending money on entertainment but with your support we can show them how valuable it is to bring Riverchasers to their bars!
Recruiting New Team Members
Before we open up any new markets, we need to build a Team of Awesome people! We are looking to add as many high-quality people to the team as we can find. We are seeking Regional Area Directors, Tournament Hosts, and Tournaments TAPS (volunteer host/players). Think you have what it takes to wear the hat and Have Fun @ Riverchasers? Let us know!
Thanks for being Riverchasers! Have Fun | Play Poker | Win Prizes!
