What is the APT

A Winning Hand!
The Amateur Poker Tour was born in Denver, Colorado and brings a Mile High flavor and excitement to the growing Texas Hold’em phenomena.

Bringing together the winning combination of big prizes and free play, the APT features an ever-growing list of hot venues and ever-greater crowds of very competitive players. With over $250,000 in prizes to be awarded through 2007 and an International event for top players slated for Las Vegas, the APT is taking the lead in the metro Denver area.

Big Fun, Amazing Rewards!
It was this recipe for success that gave Brenda Jones an opportunity to become the 2006 Amateur Poker Tour National Champion. She made a strong showing in the local qualifiers and ended up with a Land Rover Discovery to reward her skills. See more of her inspiring story elsewhere in the website.

With nightly tournaments at a growing number of taverns around Denver, the tour presents and opportunity for anyone to rise in the ranks and go as far as their skill will take them. Cash, luxury automobiles, even exotic motorcycles make up the incentives for a year of winning play. And the monthly prizes of cash, travel and the possibility of qualifying for the Las Vegas International Event keep the short-term rewards on many player’s minds.

Exciting and Expanding!
More than 50 cities will feature the fun and fast pace of the Amateur Poker Tour by the end of this year. As a nationwide playing opportunity, the Tour will gather the “best of the best” throughout the season for a climatic finish in the center of the poker universe – Las Vegas, Nevada.

The Amateur Poker Tour is also making strides in developing a nationwide system for finding winners, the best of whom will find themselves at the top Vegas showdown. The World Series of Poker is the epitome of Texas Hold’em competition. With entries into the WSOP Main Event as well as satellite events, the potential for a local guy or gal to go all the way awaits. Points garnered through the VIP program and wins at local, nightly events will get you in. Additionally, consistent players demonstrating overall performance and presence will be handpicked by the APT management team and offered spots as well.
