ABOUT THE PAPER

Independent poker media since the days of smoke-filled parlors.

Last updated August 10, 2026

PokerLeague has covered the felt since 1931 — from back-room draw games to nine-thousand-entry Main Events. We are an independent newsroom of reporters, tournament reporters, a strategy desk and one penguin.

The paper is funded by readers, advertising and affiliate partnerships. All three are disclosed, and none of them decide what we publish.

We report from the floor: our live blogs are written by people standing at the rail, not rewritten from a stream.

The desks
♠The Rail Desk — tournament news and live coverage.
♠The Strategy Desk — guides, hand reviews and theory.
♠The Industry Desk — business, regulation and the market.
♠The Saloon — our reader forum, moderated by volunteers.
♠Pip — mascot, morale, occasional interview questions.
Questions?
Write to the desk — a person answers, not a form.
