Hello Mobsters
Since October I play WPT League tournaments on party poker and I earned an invitation to the 2016 World Poker Tour League Championship (WPTLC) to be held in Las Vegas (Henderson).
Small description of the event: "The World Poker Tour League Championship is an annual invitation only event held in the summer each year. The 2016 WPT League Chamionship is a buy-in ($150), limited re-entry (3) style event. Coupled with up to a $35K prize overlay offered by WPT League, the player buy-in will allow a prize pool up to $160,000 in cash and prizes including a 1st place prize package estimated at $28,000!! This event is a multi-day tournament hosting a variety of ancillary cash tournaments and cash games to attendees."
RESERVATION CONFIRMATION Thank you for choosing to stay at Sunset Station Your Deluxe King - WPTLEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP 2016 has been reserved for your arrival.
Now I have to find time to play live (I work 6 days a week) I will stop my deposits on poker sites and only play the freeroll and under $5 S&G with my bankroll.

Posted by damosk: Well done poker King...... How does one get involved in those tourneys on party?
I just looked at this hotel online and it's a pretty decent looking hotel with amazingly cheap prices for the quality. Have a great time King.
WPTL are on Tuesday, Friday and Saturday You have a freeroll for those who have registered on WPTL. Need to register to get password Tuesday and Friday you have also a $5 buy-in for canadian. Saturday it's a $4.40 bounty ($1) and I think I saw some UK players
You have a leaderboard for each day every 3 month to won your invitation. leaderboard for Tuesday freeroll, Friday freeroll, saturday freeroll, $5 series (Tuesday & Friday) and saturday bounty. Got mine the last day with the Saturday bounty (attached pic) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the WPTL is also a live league when you go on wpt.com look at the top for wpt league tab. From there you can find where you can play in live league.
I suggest to my fellow canadian to try at least the freeroll on partypoker.

Anyways enjoy that chance at some good money.
By the way, I'll be in mississauga in april for the 2016 World Poker Tour League Party Poker Canadian Nationals. First real practice with big players
WOW good luck, Such a scary thing to play that (for me at least). I hope you will have a nice time over there, try not to drink too much (if you drink at all?). And be careful out there, there are very dodgy individuals walking on the streets.
Keep grinding online and stay focused and I will probably see you at the tables of partypooper.com
