How Does it Work?
Official No Fee Texas Hold ‘Em Tournaments are a form of entertainment designed to fill your establishment with customers that will enjoy your products and services.
Founded in Bremerton Washington, in 2005, No Fee Texas Hold 'Em participation can range from 20 to over 300 players in a single tournament session. We have a proven system that encourages players to spend liberally in your establishment
The No Fee Texas Hold 'Em Amateur Poker League
provides your establishment with everything necessary to conduct a top notch event. Players build lasting friendships at the poker felt and come out week after week in order to socialize and compete. Our player referral system rewards players for bringing you new customers.
What's in it for My Customers?
Players can play for free and have fun while testing their poker skills in real tournament play, all in the comfort of their favorite neighborhood bars and restaurants. Players have the opportunity to win entry into tournaments where 100’s of thousands of dollars are put up as prize money.
Your place is a good fit if you have:
Physical space for 3 to 6 tables that can seat 8 players each. Booths don't work well in tournament play but won’t stop the action if that is all you have. If you have the space for more tables we can ensure that your equipment needs are met.
A wait-staff that will service the poker tables and make the players feel welcome! Remember, players only chance to get up and run to the bar is during our breaks so an attentive wait staff is extremely important in order to maximize your profits.

What's In It for My Business?
Increased sales on tournament nights! Players will spend up to 6 hours in your establishment during a double tournament event. We ask all our players to support the Official No Fee Texas Hold 'Em event locations! We could not do this without you! Most venue owners report significant increases in food and beverage sales on tournament nights. Poker nights pack your parking lot, bringing in even more people.
Prizes
Players can win cash and gift certificates at the venue level. How much prize money available is strictly up to the bar. The leauge conducts two State Championships each year, one in May and another in November. Grand Prize at the State Championships is a seat at a WSOP bracelet event and $500 cash for expenses. Over $4,000,000 in total prize money is available at the World Series of Poker tournament(s).
What do I Need?
How much does it cost?
The cost is comparable to other forms of entertainment, like Karaoke, or a Live Band, league fees are extremely low in order to allow the bar/club to offer more prize money to the players. The more the player can win the greater the number of players. A typical night of play will cost between $120 and $150 depending on amount of prize money paid.
We supply everything necessary to hold Official No Fee Texas Hold ‘Em Tournaments, including poker table tops, playing cards, chips, tournament rules, master forms, and of course... a Tournament Host to ensure that your tournaments run smooth and everyone has a great time.
Is it Legal?
Our players do NOT pay anything to play! No member fees, no cover charges, and no “buy-ins”, this makes our play in local bars and taverns completely legal since our players are not "gambling" and your establishment will not have to have a license from the Gambling Commission.
