Thanks for taking part in our 57th Season!

Congratulations to our Top 10 places on the ladder for the season!


Peter Blakers took down what was another exciting season! Well done Peter!


Season 57 Grand Final is this Sunday

The season 57 Grand Final is this Sunday 10th August @ Scarborough Sports & Community Club. It's $100 buy-in, and starts an hour earlier than our regular Sundays (12pm registration, 1pm start!)

With 30 minute blinds and a 25,000 chip stack, this 8 hour event is the great finale for a fun filled season. Good luck, and may the best cards win!


Season 58 starts this Tuesday night!

Tuesday 5th August is the beginning of Season 58, and the big change to a $100 regular buy-in, with double the prize money!

Our average 1st place prizes have been $350-$500, so with similar numbers we will see that double to an average $700-$1000 to first, with the usual top 10% of players also winning double the regular prize money!

More players = more prize money and more players in the money, so invite your friends down to play, for your chance at winning more!

As always, we offer the best value for money in WA, and that means more prize money for our players.

Thanks for your support, and we look forward to seeing you soon!

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 :)

10/07/2017 - Introducing the WAPL Live Table - Watch us play! -


Permanent Link

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!

WAPL Events are conducted at Gaming Functions by Permit issued under Section 47 of the Act for various charity and not for profit organisations.
