The AAA Poker Tour was formed by players for players. 
We believe in offering affordable events that allow even greater 
chips and play than a more expensive tournament. 

The true market for live poker tournaments remains untapped. The typical amateur has been playing online, in home games, and in tavern-sponsored events. Many of them would like to take the next step and participate in a prestigious poker tournament. Unfortunately they are not willing or able to pay the $5,000 to $10,000 fee. Unless the recreational player is lucky enough to win an entry, he or she will never be in a WPT or WSOP championship.

It is our contention that those participating in the existing tours only represent a small percent of the potential players. The AAA Poker Tour was created to address the needs of the silent majority who would be willing to play in a less expensive tournament. The tour also gives the amateur a middle-ground to sharpen their game…much like the minor leagues in baseball.

The WPT and WSOP are controlled by large corporations. Although players were involved in the early roots of these programs, the management lost touch with their customers over time. In fact, the WSOP formed an advisory committee of players to give input from the customer's perspective. AAA Poker Tour is different because its founders are amateurs who understand the needs and desires of the recreational player.

The AAA Poker Tour will partner with casinos of all sizes to host events across the country, and sponsoring casinos can negotiate geographic exclusivity. Advantages to the casino include:

• Being in the forefront of the next big poker tour.
• Broad exposure via poker magazines, televised tournaments, and internet &  tavern-sponsored satellites.
• Increased gaming revenues due to the influx of players & their guests.

The true market for live poker tournaments remains untapped. Come and partner with the AAA Poker Tour to be part of the next big poker revolution.

The AAA Poker Tour will attract large followings by instituting a ‘player friendly' approach:

• Low entry fees starting at $100, and up to $1,500 for the main event.
• Longer blind levels and greater amount of starting chips.
• Flatter payout schedules of 13% to 20% rather than 10%.
• More frequent breaks.
• Bracelets, rings, trophies, or other awards for the winner in each event (regardless of entry-fee).
• Annual grand championship event for first place winners from every main event during the preceding year.
• Less intimidating environment than playing with the pros.
