After eight events out of the scheduled 43 across 10 different poker networks, it’s ‘TopSpot’ who’s in, well, top spot!

His 75 points from last week’s TonyBet €250 added event, coupled with 50 more from the Coral €250 added and his recent 35 points from the Unibet €300 added have seen him catapult to pole position in the race for the $7000 first prize at the end of the month.

Close behind him, however, is the ever-dangerous ‘THEHEADSUP’ and in 3rd spot currently we have ‘Gunz4hireNL’. In addition to their leaderboard points, all three have scooped some excellent cash prizes as well as other goodies – check out my article here for what’s on offer!

The player’s league!

The OPL has brought together sites such as 888poker, Unibet, TonyBet, Coral, Betfair, Tigergaming, Natural8, Netbet Poker, Betonline and Betvictor under one league, affording players the chance to try out new sites as well as their personal favorites -and share in the $35,000 on offer.

Tournaments will run every single day throughout October and there is up to $1000 to be won in cash in each event, with added value from the site itself seeing an extra £250-500 on the line – as well as the bonus points which will make up the overall OPL leaderboard, the eventual winner taking home a sweet $7000 of the $18,000prizepool!

The league - run by poker players FOR pokers players - has definitely caught the imagination of the playing public AND also the sponsors, which range from individual training websites to the world’s biggest poker and travel companies – all offering extra prizes all the way down to 20th spot in each tournament.

Twitch streaming

Of course nowadays any event worth its salt uses social media to keep players updated and informed and the OPL is way out in front here, with no less than four different Twitch streamers sharing and commenting on the action!

Tonkaaaap is a partner and Spraggy is also involved while the irrepressible DougPolk will also be live streaming his pick of the best, as will PokerTube’s very own FaceBook page.

How do I sign up?

Pretty simple and straightforward really – just sign up to poker rooms directly via the OPL site, or else OPL partners such as PokerVIP, PokerTube and WeakTight to be eligible to earn your points on the leaderboard.

If you are already playing on one of the sites and fancy joining in the OPL excitement just drop them an email. You can check out all the details here.
