The Leisure World Poker Series
The LWPS is held on board the luxury cruise liner MV Leisure World, for the last 20 years one of the region’s favourite cruise-to-nowhere destinations. The LWPS is conducted in the Treasure Cove, which serves as a dedicated poker room during event days. The Treasure Cove has an attendant bar, a tournament registration ticketing system, ample rest facilities, as well as multiple LCD displays with cable TV connectivity. During LWPS weekends, the venue also conducts Texas Hold’em cash games, and Sit N Go tournaments upon demand. Visit our comprehensive MV Leisure World FAQ for answers to all your boarding related questions. Updated ferry schedules can be found here. LWPS Season 2 – Event Dates and Finale Structure The complete Season 2 schedule is out! Mark these dates on your calendars! LWPS VII - May 21, 22 LWPS VIII - June 18. 19 LWPS IX - July 23, 24 LWPS X - September 24, 25 LWPS XI - October 22, 23 LWPS XII (Grand Finale) - December 2, 3, 4 Season 2 Grand Finale Taking place on December 2, 2011, our Season 2 Grand Finale will feature a $450 +$50 Deepstack Freezeout, another first on the LWPS tournament schedule. Here are several ways to get your seat to the finale: 1) Direct Buy-in on site 2) Live Mega-Satellites during LWPS X and LWPS XI Here’s how it works: The LWPS will record and publish a top money earners list after each LWPS event, taking into account cashes from the Main, as well as the Side Events. Player earnings from satellites, SnGs, and freerolls will not count towards the computation. The computation period will take place from LWPS VII to LWPS XI. The leaderboard’s top 15 players at the conclusion of LWPS XI will each qualify for Grand Finale seats.* *Seats are neither transferable, nor exchangeable for cash. Should a qualifying player be unable to attend the Grand Finale, his/her seat will automatically go the next best placed finisher on the leaderboard. Talk about the LWPS in our forums. LWPS Season 1 An extremely successful first season was brought to a close with our Season 1 CNY Grand Finale in February 2011. Check out our archives for event reports, pictures and videos!
