Who's Going to Vegas?
Below is a list of players who have won their seats and/or full travel
packages and are going to Vegas with SPL in June, 2026!
The Bar Poker Open Championship at the Golden Nugget in Las Vegas (June 7–12, 2026) is getting closer, and I want every single one of you to know exactly how you can still get there, because there are three paths, and all of them are within reach.
1. Saturday & Sunday Online Satellites
Every Sunday at 8am (PST), we run an online tournament directly tied to our live games. This is what you earn tokens for in our weekly in person games.
Yes, the winner earns the full Vegas package (seat, flight, and hotel)… but that’s not all.
We also award 1 seat for every 50 players, meaning multiple players can qualify for a Bar Poker Open seat depending on turnout.
So even if you don’t take first, you can still earn your way in.
Saturdays at 4pm, we have a 3 token entry satellite where you can earn a full Vegas travel package for every 100 entries.
2. Win a Sunshine Series Event
Throughout the season, we host major in-person events like the Tournament of Champions, Women’s Events, and other Sunshine specials.
These are big moments in our league, and winners walk away with Bar Poker Open seats and prize packages.
3. Qualify to Buy In (Points Matter)
Every game you play earns you points. If you stay consistent and hit the right threshold, you unlock the ability to buy into the Bar Poker Open Championship for $400.
No win required…just commitment and consistency. This is how grinders turn a full season into a Vegas seat.
