Grand Final for Season 50, Gaming function by Permit issued under Section 47 of the Act for Scarborough Bowling Club
18/03/2023 - Season 50 Grand Final approaches, plus changes to Season 51 and other info! -
Our Season 50 Grand Final is coming up soon @ Scarborough Sports & Community Club
Here are the details -
Season 50 Grand Final - Sunday 16th April, 2023
Great Value Prize Pool!
Quality event, quality venue
20,000 start stack (No rebuys)
30 min blinds starting @ 25/50
$100 entry event. Registration opens 12pm noon.
Tournament starts 1pm.
Top 10% of players win cash prizes!
There will also be Cash Tables running for players who wish to play more poker during the event!
Upcoming changes to Season 51
I've discussed these potential changes with the majority of our players over the last month, to great positive feedback, and am making the following changes come the new season across all venues. The changes are aimed at increasing our prize payouts to players across the board, whilst continuing to offer our industry-leading value for money tournaments, keeping their quality and integrity to the highest standards. I hope that making these changes will attract more players seeking bigger prize pools to our events, without introducing negative changes like re-buys.
As I have suggested in the past, I *highly recommend* you look at how much of the money you pay to play in a poker tournament (wherever you play) actually goes back to the prize pool on the night, as this should be one of the first things any poker player considers before choosing where to play.
- Tournament entry doubled to $100 from $50 - No re-buys, no add-ons/top-ups.
- Tournament prizes doubled - Same great value, $84/$100 to the prize instead of $42/$50
- Tournament start stack increased to 20,000 from 16,000 - More chips!
- Late entry permitted up until end 200/400 blinds (1 hour into play)
Given the value in playing our events, it's easy to see that once we have the player numbers, our prize pools will always build faster than anywhere else, without resorting to re-buys, add-ons and top-ups.

5/11/2019 - No JSA tonight due to Melbourne Cup Day Event @ JSA -
1/10/2019 - K.I.D.S. Donated $6925 to Perth Children's Hospital Foundation! -
K.I.D.S Donates $6925 to
Perth Children's Hospital
from The Whale & Ale events!
We caught up with K.I.D.S. Charity Chairman Paul Lord recently, to donate
The worthy recipients of this great, $6925 donation was Perth Children's
Hospital Foundation, with the funds being spent directly on making sick
childrens' lives better at times when they are needing to attend the hospital.
We were given a tour of the hospital, and were amazed at how friendly,
colourful and not foreboding the hospital is. We can see how it would be a lot
less frightening for children who need to go there, compared to other hospitals.
A note from Sarah, Community Fundraising Manager at PCHF -
"We are excited to direct the funds towards an area that will be most impactful. The funds have been received and we look forward to sharing this with you and Paul. Many thanks again for your wonderful support."
Thanks to all our players who have helped us raise this great amount for Perth Children's Hospital Foundation
13/08/2019 - Congratulations to our Season 40 Grand Final Champion! -
8/08/2019 - Western Australian Poker League - More Value, Every Event! -
At WAPL, you get more back to your nightly cash prize than anywhere else.
From your standard $50 buy-in, $42 goes back to the prize on the night, so, for the number of players, you win considerably more when you cash in our events!
We fear that most players don't take this into account when looking at where to play, though we've noticed that this is starting to change!
We'd like like to urge you to get informed, for your own good. Check how much money comes out of your buy-in at every event you play at. Every operator is legally required to put the buy-in breakdown for each tournament at the registration desk, so ask to see if it if isn't present...
Once you know how much money goes to the actual prize pool you're playing for, you can make a knowledgeable decision as to where the most value is for you to play.
For example, let's take a 20 player event. Compare $35 to our $42 to the prize from each player, and the difference is stark.
$35 to prize with 20 players = $700 prize pool, $315 1st, $210 2nd, $175 3rd
$42 to prize with 20 players = $840 prize pool, $378 1st, $252 2nd, $210 3rd
With more players, the difference in payouts just increases...
Value is an important part of poker, especially when you play tournament poker regularly, and this is definitely worth considering!
See you soon :)

21/05/2018 - The Return of the King of the Hill! -
WA Poker League Presents
Date - Wednesday 23rd May, 2018
Time - Registration & Cash Tables from 6pm
Tournament Start 7:00pm
Cost - $50 buy-in
Location - Sorrento Football Club, Beddi Rd, Duncraig
Get down early! There is a limit of 40 seats
Details - This is a tournament variation we designed ourselves over a decade ago and called King of the Hill. We know you'll enjoy it! Spread the word and join in on the fun!
-
Each player starts the tournament with 8,000 chips, and a "Crown". If you lose your chips, you lose your crown but have a "life" re-entry to continue in the tournament. (Note: This re-entry does not cost money, it is part of the tournament variation)
-
If a crowned player knocks out another crowned player, the losing players crown is removed from the tournament.
-
If an uncrowned player knocks out a crowned player, they get the crown and therefore have another "life" re-entry should they get knocked out again.
The winners are the Top 10% of players with crowns removed from the tournament (by being knocked out by remaining crowned players, and the overall winner (last crowned player remaining) will be crowned "King of the Hill"!
Yes, this means that the tournament may finish whilst other players without crowns are still actively trying to win their crown back to make the money...
Payouts are based on our Payout Structure ($42 entry to prize, $8 to Sorrento FC costs & fundraising.)
There will be Cash Tables and Gold Rush Flips available, so this is definitely an event not to miss!
Other important tournament notes -- The "re-entry" for losing a crown is either 4000 in chips OR 2x the current big blind, whichever is greater. (Big blind is based on the hand in which the player was knocked out)
- If a crowned player is knocked out in a hand with more than one uncrowned player splitting the pot, the uncrowned player with MORE chips takes the crown. If they had identical stacks, the crown goes to the player left of button (worst position relative to the dealer)
- If a crowned player is taken out in a hand with one uncrowned player splitting the pot with another crowned player, the uncrowned player takes the crown
- If a shorter stacked uncrowned player is all-in in a hand vs multiple other players, which sees a higher stacked crowned player get knocked out by another player (either crowned or uncrowned), even if the short stacked uncrowned player wins their all-in, if they didn't have the crowned players chips covered, they cannot claim the crown
- To be eligible for a Crown re-entry, when getting knocked out you MUST immediately raise your hand with the Crown and call over a staff member. If you try to hold off for the next blind change or any other delaying tactic, you will be disqualified from the tournament.
Unless altered above, all WAPL Pro League Rules apply to this tournament.
We look forward to seeing you at the King of the Hill event, and anticipate another great night of poker!
Have you been with us long enough to remember this?

The first Gold Rush is over, and what an event it was!
A huge congratulations to the winner of the inaugural Gold Rush, Daniel Murphy!
After the hard fought 2 day event, Daniel managed to best his 31 opponents to take top spot! He picked up the lion's share of the $20,000 Prize Pool, $10,000, for his efforts!
Top 4 were paid, and we saw WAPL regular and long time player Matt King take down 2nd place, for $5,000.
The well known, feared, and respected player Dale Marsland came in 3rd place, winning $3,000. He played a great tournament, and was our most aggressive player on Final Table.
We saw Stefen Chitra, who entered Day 2 as our massive chip leader (over 1/4 of the chips in the tournament!) take out 4th place, taking $2,000 for his great effort!
We are so glad to hear such great feedback from the event. Needless to say, we will make a few minor tweaks, but will be back with Gold Rush #2 soon!
Make sure you qualify for one of the next 32 $700 Main Event seats quickly, or pre-register and buy straight in to secure your spot!
You can Qualify at any of our events through our 4 player FLIP RUSH, or via our $100 Gold Rush Satellites (1 in 8 win a Main Event Seat!) Your next $100 Satellite opportunity is This Thursday 3rd May @ Scarborough Sportsmen's Club!
Thanks to all who had enough faith in us and our new Main Event structure to jump in and give it a go. We're overjoyed at how things went, and glad that the event met (and largely exceeded) your expectations.
Having the final table streamed on our WAPL Live Table allowed many viewers from around the world to experience the fun of our Gold Rush Final Table.
Last but not least, thank you to Paul W for giving up his Tuesday night to be our amazing commentator for the stream, it is incredible having his great personality at the head of our commentary team, and an honour to have him host the first Gold Rush stream with us :)
Looking forward to the next one, PM us to secure your seat before they all run out!

24/03/2018 - "Trust everyone, but always cut the cards." - Benny Binion -
There is one more night of great poker at Woodvale Tavern this coming Thursday 29th of March, and we are happy to announce that our new venue, Scarborough Sportsmen's Club, starts the Thursday after on April 5th!
On our opening night, all poker players will be greeted with a complimentary beer, wine, sparkling, or soft drink to help celebrate our great new location!
Scarborough Sportsmen's Club is located at 75 Deanmore Road, Scarborough, it's more central, a little south of Woodvale, and we will be in an amazing function room with a bar, a great view, much cheaper food and drink options, and a full bistro menu!
We already have at least 1 additional new venue confirmed and starting in May, with potentially up to 2 more, all quality establishments as you're accustomed to for your WAPL events.
You can expect the usual great WAPL Live Table and Cash Table action, the BEST prize payouts for your buy-in ($42 to the cash prize for a $50 buy-in in our regular Pro games), and the fairest and best tournament structure in WA.
We're looking to expand back to 5-7 events per week again within another couple of months, and we will be running more fun Special events again too!
The date for the first Gold Rush (which we had planned to run at the Woodvale) will be announced shortly, once we confirm dates.
I truly appreciate your support and loyalty, especially in wake of this news, and hope to see most of you moving forward as we expand to bigger and better venues.
Regards,
Jason (WAPL)
***RANT***
I strongly believe that the vast majority of players who have played at a WAPL operated by me know me as a trustworthy, honourable, and fair person and friend who prides himself on doing the right thing by all members, venues, and the many not-for-profits we raise funds for.
Many concerned members had spoken with me regarding rumours that an individual had approached our 10.5 year long-standing Thursday night venue, Woodvale Tavern, with the intent of using a connection within the venue to undermine our event in order to 'steal' it and move it to another league for their own benefit. (Boo!)
I approached the venue owner regarding these rumours, had a meeting, and we mutually agreed to continue running our regular Thursday nights and put an end to these rumours. Hands were shaken, a confirmation email sent, and we were locked in for another 6 months minimum moving forward. (Yay!)
That Thursday I announced the news to our much-relieved members, and all seemed to be business as usual. (Yay!?)
It then came as a shock to me 2 weeks later when I received a call from the venue owner, cancelling us at the end of March. He said that he was approached again after our agreement was made, and "offered a deal he could not refuse" in order to unceremoniously ditch us, agreement notwithstanding, leaving us with 1 day to find a replacement venue for April (which, fear not, we did!) (WTF?)
Apparently, he felt it was OK to cancel our agreement, with his excuse being that he was "not allowed to make such an agreement without his business partner (wife) also agreeing" (Not that she had ever had any involvement in any of our past meetings/agreements). (Poor form! Boo!)
I find it (insert one of many fitting words here) that someone would stoop so low as to make backdoor deals in this manner, along with approaching and attempting to (even now) poach my staff. (ps. please stop trying to call them, 5 times in a day is rather excessive...) (Grr!)
I always consider the moral and ethical choices to be the best ones in business and in life, and hopefully Karma will sort out the rest.
These questionable events have made me decide that it's time to push back and expand our events, venues, and presence in the community once more. (Yay!)
Moving forward, I'd like to thank the *many* of you who have shown your loyal support to me after this treatment, and I hope that you will support us as we expand, starting with our replacement Thursday night venue which will directly replace the Woodvale event, starting 5th April! ( <3 )

15/11/2017 - Gold Rush Main Event #1 Postponed to early 2018! -
It's with deep sadness that we must announce that the first Gold Rush Main Event will be postponed until early 2018.
We have had an unexpected death in the family, and need to spend some time coming to terms with it, so unfortunately we need to focus on ourselves for the time being, over the stress of preparing final numbers and arrangements for the Gold Rush.
Many of our Sydney WSOP playing crew will no doubt be happy at us rescheduling this event, as the first dates clashed with many travel arrangements for what looks to be a massive Australian poker tournament, and we wish those who are heading east for it all the very best.
With Christmas so close by, we decided to push Gold Rush #1 into early 2018 instead of trying to squeeze it in around our Grand Final next month.
We've listened to many of your great suggestions, and will continue to run satellites to the Gold Rush for you all to qualify for what will be a great event. One of the main questions we've been asked is "Will the Gold Rush be Dealer Dealt?" - Yes, yes it will! :)
Our apologies for changing the date, but given the circumstances we feel that we would be better able to host the event for you once we get through this difficult time and are back on track. Our list of main event participants will be contacted with further information shortly.
Please email info@wapokerleague.com.au if you have any specific questions and I'll endeavor to get back to you as soon as possible.
Thanks for your understanding,
Jason

Additional Important Information -
Flip Rush "flips" are individual satellite tournaments which are played all-in pre-flop by 4 players. If the hand is split, the players who split play another hand all-in pre-flop, until a winner is determined.
Each event you play, your prize winnings (Gold Rush $) will be recorded against your name and held securely. You can contribute to this running record via multiple Flip Rush wins, or top up with cash in order to build up a Gold Rush entrance amount of $700. For example, you may win 2x $50 flips, ($370 total for 2x $185 Flip Rush entries), then elect to use that value from your records, plus $330 cash, to play in the Gold Rush.
For players who love our Gold Rush structure, and build up Gold Rush Seats faster than we can run the events, players with 2+ Gold Rush Seats recorded ($1400+ value) may also use an extra Gold Rush Seat to buy direct in to our WAPL Live Table for $700, for the ultimate Cash Game experience, streamed online to the world!
Gold Rush Main Events (Not the Super Gold Rush Events) will be scheduled regularly, and the frequency with which we schedule to run them will vary with the speed at which Gold Rush Seats are won. We anticipate to announce an upcoming date for the following month once we have had 16 Gold Rush Seat winners, which gives us a $10,000 prize pool, and a month for the next 16 Seats to be won (or filled up by direct $700 buy-ins!)
Gold Rush Events and Super Gold Rush Events are run over 2 days. We may adjust what venues Day 1 and Day 2 are played on once we have tested and seen what works well for us and our players. We also plan to move the regular Gold Rush Events between our venues to allow the majority of players to attend different Gold Rush Events from different locations. (ie. not always North based venues for Gold Rush events, we will bring them Central and South too periodically.)
Super Gold Rush Events will be scheduled occasionally as demand builds at this stage, and these venues and dates will be advised well in advance.
In accordance with WAPL's strict adherence to RGL requirements, all funds collected and held for players as part of the Gold Rush Events will be held securely and by agreement between the Permit Holding Not for Profit/Charities and will be reconciled frequently by your WAPL Team and the Permit Holding Organisations. You can be informed of the current balance of your Gold Rush funds in person at our events or via another identifiable medium (WAPL Facebook Page Private Message, via an email address we have registered with your WAPL Membership sent to info@wapokerleague.com.au , etc.)
Gold Rush funds are non-refundable and non-transferable except in extenuating circumstances (if the player is permanently leaving the state/country, banned from the league, etc, they may request in writing to have their balance transferred to another player)
Upon such a time that we may decide to cease the Gold Rush Series of events, any outstanding moneys held by the Permit Holding Organisations will be returned to their confirmed winners.

10/07/2017 - A huge milestone for a great member! 1000 games! -
Jan Burke, one of the many long term, loyal, and wonderful friends we've been fortunate enough to have made through WAPL over the last 11+ years, has just last Thursday reached a great milestone for herself and our league.
1000 Free League Tournaments!
Just about everyone who has played at our northern venues, Free or Pro League, will know who Jan is, by sight if not name, but many will not know to what extent Jan has been a great supporter of WAPL over the last decade plus.
Jan has been the Permit Holder for our fundraising events at the Woodvale Tavern for almost as long as she's been playing poker with us, and as such, her dedication of her time, week in and week out, helps make it possible for every one of our Pro and Cash players to play poker with us.
Jan has been a life member of WAPL for many years now, thanks to the phenomenal support, great energy and wonderful attitude she brings to every event, and is also a Free League Grand Final Champion!
So, in congratulating Jan for this great achievement of 1000 Free League events (She's played a good deal of Pro events, too!), we'd also like to extend our undying gratitude to her for her great help over the years, and hopefully for many to come :)
It was absolutely fitting, and a great occasion, to see Jan manage to WIN the tournament on Thursday for her 1000th!
Here's a couple of shots of Jan, one from way back when, at her very first tournament win (which was at the Woodvale Tavern, no less!), and her 1000th tournament win!
Thanks Jan!
Jan's first win! 15th February, 2007
Jan wins her 1000th Free League game, 6th July, 2017, with her son Jod!

10/07/2017 - Introducing the WAPL Live Table - Watch us play! -
We have been running the WAPL Live Table since April 2017, recording and releasing footage (if you've missed it) to our YouTube channel (http://youtube.com/wapokerleague) and Facebook (http://facebook.com/wapokerleague)
Now we've expanded to live streaming the action from the table, with a 15 minute delay!
From May, we will (unless we experience issues) be streaming our WAPL Live Table games to our Twitch.tv channel, http://twitch.tv/wapokerleague
Make sure you head there and follow us, so you get notified when we go live!
Our live games are delayed by 15 minutes, to avoid the potential for viewers to influence hands in play, so that means that for a 6pm-midnight event, you should be able to watch us live from 6:15pm until the end of gaming.
Please get involved, hop into the live chat and give us your comments, suggestions, and any criticisms you might have for us to make the WAPL Live Table experience the best it can be for our viewers, members, and players, and help us spread the word around the local (and wider) poker communities.
If you want a seat on the WAPL Live Table, email us (info@wapokerleague.com.au) and we will find you a spot, but please be patient as seating is in high demand!

16/05/2017 - It's WAPL's 11th Birthday this week! -
This week, we celebrate 11 years of Western Australia's first Poker League, WAPL!
It's been a fun ride so far, with its ups and downs, many players and prizes joining us along the way, and more bad beat stories than we could ever have a chance of remembering :)
We'd like to thank all our members, past and current, for helping us shape the league over the years. We're really happy with where we're at, with a great range of games for players from brand new learners to hardened veterans of the game.
Our tournaments are second to none in fun and payouts for what you pay to play, and our cash tables are professional, fair, and respectful.
We welcome you down this week to help us celebrate at the Woodvale Tavern on Thursday night from 6pm. There will be some extra special prizes, some goodies we've picked up over the years, which we are sure will make worthy trophies for your poker collection!
Spread the word, and we look forward to hosting you for another fun night with WAPL as usual!
Thanks again for your support!
Your WAPL Team
1/05/2017 - Introducing the WAPL Live Table! Watch us play! -
11 years ago, when we started WAPL, we (with the help of life member Buck Hetherington) designed and created the WAPL Grand Final Table, an 8 camera inlaid table which was used to record the hole cards of players who reached final table in our Grand Finals. The footage could then be used to create DVDs for our members, to help commemorate these special events.
Unfortunately, the process was painstakingly slow, manually calculating and inputting cards into the DVD creation process, for each big hand, was a nightmare. Not to mention that the table took 5 people to lift this masterpiece!
Skip forward nearly 11 years, and we are delighted to announce the creation of the WAPL Live Table, a completely custom, individual card detecting table, utilising custom cards and software to automatically identify and generate card graphics, hand win percentages, and everything you are used to seeing on television when you watch poker at the WSOP or WPT events!
We have been running the WAPL Live Table since April 2017, recording and releasing footage (if you've missed it) to our YouTube channel (http://youtube.com/wapokerleague) and Facebook (http://facebook.com/wapokerleague)
Now we've expanded to live streaming the action from the table, with a 15 minute delay!
From May, we will (unless we experience issues) be streaming our WAPL Live Table games to our Twitch.tv channel, http://twitch.tv/wapokerleague

  We were shocked to hear just recently about the untimely passing of our great friend and Team WAPL member, Bob Streatfeild. Bob was a stalwart regular at our Woodbridge events, where he was highly regarded by all players and staff. We were lucky enough to have had Bob join us on one of our Team WAPL trips up to Macau, where he not only had a great time and partied hard with us all, he final tabled the main event, making dozens of great friends along the way! We were filled with great sadness to hear from a fellow member of Bob's bike accident in 2016, and will miss his smiling face, fun sense of humour, and great poker plays. :( On behalf of us and all our staff who had the absolute pleasure of knowing and hosting Bob at the many WAPL events he played in, and from those players who were great friends with him, RIP mate. |
  WAPL Re-makes WA Poker History This table is the whole package. Complete card identification, camera mounted, realtime card video output card display, including percentage chances to win and outs, high definition recording and live (or delayed) stream ready, it's the real deal, and it's about to launch! Also, just quietly, if you happened to read all the way to the end of this news, the table is having a soft trial launch today, Tuesday 4th April, at Joondalup Sports Association. Though it might be too late for you to get in on the action on the table itself, if you're interested, get in touch with Jason (jason@wapokerleague.com.au) for more info on playing at the launch party, or come down from 6pm-midnight to check out the table in action! |

31/01/2017 - Aussie Millions Results & Woodvale Thurs 2nd Feb is in the Sports Bar! -

We were keenly following WAPL member Eddie Fowler's progress in the Aussie Millions this month, and although he unfortunately didn't have a good run in the Main Event, he had a great run in the other events he played! Eddie's main event Day 1 started slowly, but hurt as Eddie took a couple of nasty beats with superior hands such as AK vs K5, and AQ vs 53. He saw a nice pot come in with a short stacked double up from the small blind with pocket 6's, hitting a set. Things were looking like they were turning around when he looked down at pocket Kings vs a raise under the gun. After a nice re-raise, the original raiser shoves, showing AK vs Eddie's KK. The much needed double up failed him as the board ran out 5,6,7,8,9 for a split pot straight, leaving him with 7,500 in chips at 200/400/50 Ante. Devastating. He went card dead after the Kings, dwindling down to a point where he made a move with A4, running into Jacks, which held, ending Eddie's Main Event run late on Day 1. |
|
Sweet Revenge After his unfortunate run of cards from the Main Event, Eddie decided to hop into a Main Event satellite. Only after starting the event did he find out that he wasn't able to re-enter the Main Event the next day, but, determined to improve on his performance in the Main Event, he surged onward, dominating the tournament and getting the heads up with a commanding lead. With the number of entries, they had 1 Main Event seat ($10,000AUD) going to the winner, with 2nd place taking almost as much in cash, so Eddie was more than happy to relinquish his chip lead and take the big cash payout! |
|
A Bit on the Side Eddie's final event of his Aussie Millions experience saw him cash again in the $1,150 Tournament of Champions, against 202 other players! After a great 12 hours of poker, he ended the day in the top 18, and with a good chance to run deep into the cash. The next day saw Eddie run his 58,000 stack into AJ with his pocket 10s, and was looking good right to the river where an Ace dropped, ending his great run in 15th place, with another cash payout! Thanks for doing WAPL proud over there Eddie! |

The new season starts this week!
Season 33 starts this Tuesday (13th December) at Joondalup Sports Association (Beaumaris). Our final tournament for the year is at Woodvale Tavern on the 22nd Dec, then we return from the 3rd January 2017 at Joondalup Sports Association, and Woodvale on the 5th.
We're still very happy with the prize and payout structure of the Pro League, and are confident that paying out more of your buy-ins on each nightly event is offering a great value event for our members.
In striving to continually improve, this season we are going to trial a change to the Pro starting stack to 16,000, which should result in an even better game for our members, without sacrificing our end game and causing 'shoot out' final tables, which no one likes.
As always, our members feedback is appreciated! Chat to Jason about your ideas and suggestions :)
Have a great season, and best of luck for the finals!
Your WAPL Team

4/01/2016 - Welcome to 2016! Great poker resumes Tuesday 5th! -
We'd like to wish you all the very best for 2016! Now we're through the holiday period, poker is back!
Starting at the Beaumaris on Tuesday 5th Jan, and the Woodvale on Thursday 7th Jan, Season 30 continues where we left off before Christmas.
It's hard to believe that we are up to Season 30 now, and that the Western Australian Poker League started nearly 10 years ago!
For those who've stuck with us since the beginning (and yes there's quite a few who are still regular players!), you've seen lots of changes along the way, but one thing that will never change is our commitment to ensure you have a great time when you join one of our events.
We look forward to seeing you in 2016, and best of luck!
Haven't played with us yet, or have a friend who might be keen? New or returning members for the first 2 events of the year will receive their annual membership or renewal for free! Merry Christmas. ;)
14/12/2015 - Season 29 Grand Final write-up! -
Season 29 officially ended on Sunday at the Grand Final, and what a day it was!
We saw a Royal Flush, a Straight Flush, and numerous set over set hands throughout the event, adding more excitement to an already supercharged by the huge UFC result!
In the Pro League, we saw a great field of 39 players whittle down to a final 7, where it took 1.5 hours before another player fell! With top 4 in the money, tensions were tight, as was the play all the way to the final hand, where Luke Dick got it all in pre-flop with K7 vs Alex Connell's K10. Dominated and facing elimination, his luck turned as his 7 hit the flop! Suddenly well behind and looking at doubling up Luke into the chip lead, Alex managed to hit one of the remaining 3 10s in the deck to secure the lead, and with the river blanking, the win and the $1285 first place prize money!
Alex Connell, Season 29 Pro League Grand Champion!
The top 4 Pro, in the money! Alex Connell, Luke Dick (2nd - $803), Alex Connell (1st - $1285), Steve Burgess (3rd - $642), and Andy Dark (4th - 482)
Over in the Free League, we saw a much improved structure and great Top 5 bonus change make the event even better than previous seasons! With a great field of 25, our contingent of free league members battled it out fiercely! Reaching heads up was Lawrence Tufnell and Bruce Cohen, and we saw Lawrence triumph as the Season 29 Free League Grand Champion.
Lawrence Tufnell, Season 29 Free League Grand Champion!
Congratulations goes to Alex and Lawrence, the WAPL Season 29 Pro and Free League Grand Champions respectively!

14/04/2015 - Season 27 Grand Final write-up! -
The Season 27 Grand Finals were both great events to finish a very close Season!
Terry Loftus was our overall Pro League Season Champion, beating Danny Poolman by a few hundred points overall.
The really close one was the Free League, with Paul Lord taking the Season out by only 29 points to Terry Smith! (8684 vs 8655 points!)
Congratulations to Terry and Paul for your great efforts during Season 27!
On to the Grand Final last Sunday, we saw 28 Pro players and 25 Free players fighting it out for the Grand Champion titles.
Congratulations to our winners at the Season 27 Grand Finals!
Chris Darling took down the Pro event, in a very close battle against last season's Grand Final Champion, and Season 27's Season Champion Terry Loftus, who nearly make it two final wins in a row! Chris picked up an impressive $920.25 for first, Terry $613.50 for 2nd, and Woodvale stalwart Peter Bles $511.25 for 3rd place!
Over in the Free League, we saw Marcus O'hara and Sarah Gane battle it out for first place, with Marcus eventually claiming victory and the title of Season 27 Free League Grand Champion!
Thanks for all the positive comments as to the structure of the day and the changes to the regular Pro events, we are very happy with how the new changes are working and it's good to see more players down at the regular events!
Don't forget, $42 out of a $50 buy-in is paid out in cash prizes in our regular Pro events! See you at Beaumaris on Tuesdays and Woodvale on Thursdays for these regular events!

16/09/2014 - The League loses a gentleman -
Unfortunately, we lost a life member of WAPL recently, much to all of our distress.
Larry Gane has been a regular Free League player for over 6 years, and his smiling face and great banter brightened many of our poker nights. He was a Free League Grand Final Champion (Season 21), and everyone respected and admired him.
Furthermore, Larry was Permit Holder for many years, taking responsibility for and helping with the licensing side of our poker events. Without his effort and reliability, many of our Pro League events could not have run as efficiently.
Larry's unexpected passing is a great loss to us all, and on behalf of ourselves and all WAPL Members we would like to give his family (including his daughters Sarah and Elizabeth who are also regular players) our deepest condolences on the loss of a great family man, friend, and gentleman. The number of fellow poker friends who attended his funeral last week attest to how much respect we all had for him.
On Tuesday 16th September, we will be holding a special double stack Free League tournament in Larry's honour, and there will be some great bonus Passport Prizes available in addition to our regular prizes. Please join us to help celebrate Larry's life from 6pm (registration), starting 7pm, at the Beaumaris Sports Association.
Larry (right) at his Grand Final victory!

6/03/2014 - A great streak of results for Nicholas McIntyre! -
Special note needs to be made to Nicholas McIntyre, regular Free League player at the Beaumaris Sports Association.
As at the first 7 weeks of the season, Nicholas has won 3 times and come second 3 times, in fields of between 30 and 45 players.
We can't recall the last time (if any) during the league where a player has come close to this effort.
Congratulations Nicholas! Your consistent performance is impressive, and has skyrocketed you to a healthy 1400+ point lead in the Beaumaris Free League ladder!

Darren has been quite ill unfortunately! Get well soon mate!
Best of luck to you all, we'll keep this post updated as we hear more!
4/01/2014 - A new year, a new WAPL Season, starting 7th January! -
Welcome to 2014! We trust you had a great Christmas and New Year period. This week signifies the start of WAPL Season 25, on Tuesday 7th January at the Beaumaris Sports Association.
We've been taking some great suggestions from our players and are making some changes to this season's structure, especially based around the Grand Final and desire for players to participate in it, bearing in mind players who only play a single event per week and want to strive to win their individual venue ladder.
The changes for Season 25 are as follows -
Back to a 6 month season, to get back to a bigger grand final prize pool.
$30 buy-in, $20 re-buy. The extra $5 buy-in now goes direct to the grand final prize pool, but all players at the Grand Final have their buy-in reduced by the number of Pro games they played during the season x $5 (up to their entire $200 grand final buy-in!) This enables you to not only play your fun regular weekly events, but to look forward to a great prize pool grand final with a discounted, or even free, entry! This change will hopefully achieve what we all want to see, and that is a bigger Grand Final with more players and a bigger prize pool.
There will be no more Tournament of Champions for top of venue players, instead the winner of each venue will win a $200 cash payout for their great efforts at becoming the champion of their venue!
In view of the top ranked ladder players getting a large discount off their grand final buy-in due to the number of games they will have played, we will also replace the $200 buy-in from the top 5 players, with a cash payout of $500, $300, and $200 for the top 3 season ladder results.
We are considering adding some regular (monthly) structure changes to some of the regular events, which we will be discussing with the member base at events come the start of the season.
We will continue to listen to your feedback and discuss new ideas with a mind to further improving our structure in a direction our members would like to see it head.
Thanks for all your suggestions and support through 2013, here's to a great 2014, all the best to you all!
Your WAPL Team
