Travel & MoreWe here at NLOP recognize that 99% of you are not professional poker players. You love the game of poker, you love winning money, but you also have lives, responsibilities, jobs, families and bills, bills, bills to pay. Most of you can't take off 8 days from work just to fly to Vegas to play in some giant World Series poker tournament that you have no chance of winning anyways.
However for many of you, it is possible to think that you could escape for a quick fun filled Vegas weekend where you can beat 100 players, win some serious cash ($20,000 to be exact) and meet, play and party with poker legends like Mike Sexton. Plus you finally can put faces to all those names you've been seeing play online all year long.
So whether or not you qualified for the Player's Championship tournament or just want to meet NLOP players, play some poker and party with us in Vegas – make sure to plan your trip in advance and let us know you're coming.
