How to Play the Heartland Poker League

The Heartland Poker League is the only National poker league for the casino player. Established in 2007 by the founders of the Heartland Poker Tour, the HPL provides a unique league format that gives players the opportunity at life-changing money on National TV!

How It Works

1. Play Heartland Poker League tournaments at a participating casino.
2. ALL players receive points for each tournament.* The higher you finish the tournament, the more points you receive. The tournaments also pay out cash like a normal weekly tournament.
3. Earn the most points at your casino for a 10 tournament season and play in the Televised National Championship!

You can also play for fun or participate in freeroll tournaments held in the HPL On-line Cardroom. Go to play.heartlandpokerleague.com to learn how! 100% Free and Legal.
