Structure
The scheduled poker tournaments in Grosvenor Casinos up and down the country every Monday - Friday automatically count towards the Grosvenor Poker League and three specified Grosvenor Poker League tournaments will take place every weekend according to the table below. You can play up to eight competitions (five live and three online) a week to qualify for points. At the end of the week, the system will calculate your best scoring competitions out of the eight and award your points based on your top five scores. An entry point is rewarded for each competition entered and all entry points are added to your score for the week (so you can get a maximum of 8 entry points a week, on top of your five best results).

An updated Grosvenor Poker League Table will be published both online and in clubs every Tuesday during League periods.
At the end of the week, the system will calculate which competitions are your best scoring competitions out of those you competed in and award your points based on your five best results. Every competition you play in will earn you one point, so there are a possible eight points up for grabs each week just for participating.

Grosvenor Poker League Online Playoffs
The Top 100 in each league (excluding the four prize winners) will be eligible for the online play-off. In addition, the top five point scorers at each individual club (outside the Top 100) will also be eligible. Therefore even if you don't make the Grosvenor Poker League Top 100 list, you still have a chance to qualify based on your performances at your local Grosvenor Casinos.
For the purposes of the league, competing online is considered as a club.
League Schedule
Terms & Conditions
- The GPL (Grosvenor Poker League) will operate across all Grosvenor Casino and G Casino poker rooms and Rank Interactive online poker rooms during specified periods.
- For the purposes of the league, grosvenorcasinos.com will be regarded as another casino.
- The top five scores each week will count towards the overall league scores. Points for taking part (one point per day) are kept regardless of the number of competitions played up to the maximum of eight per week.
- Where more than one event is held by a club midweek, the last event played on any one day will count for points scoring purposes.
- Only one event per day will count towards the league. Where players take part in more than one event in a day, they will have the points deducted for the second event played that day. This will be an automatic process.
- Satellite qualifiers and 'sit and go' table events will not count towards the GPL.
- Only the top five scores (Bonus Points) from any player each week will count towards the main League Table from a maximum of eight possible events. Participation points will count from every event.

- All seats in GUKPT events are non transferable and may not be redeemed for cash.
- Any player who wins more than one GUKPT Grand Final seat will be eligible to use the package towards other GUKPT Main Events instead. No cash alternative will be offered.
- The top 100 at the end of each league (excluding the four prize winners in the main league) plus the top five from each club will be eligible to enter the online GPL play-off for the £15,000 of added value. Note: A player's home club is decided by the amount of points accumulated by an individual in any one club, therefore where they have played the most frequently and accumulated the most points.
- The final league table for each league period will be published online and in clubs within 10 days of the final qualifying event taking place. A provisional table will be published prior to this allowing any disputes to be investigated and resolved.
- While every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of League Table data, players are expected to check their points totals in order to report any potential discrepancies. Errors cannot be rectified once the final League Table has been published.
- Players who qualify for the online play-off must have an active Blue Square Poker/G Casino Poker account in order to take part. Accounts must be created at least 72 hours prior to the event taking place.
- All players that qualify for the online play-off must email their online username at least 48 hours prior to the start of the competition to league@gukpt.com in order to be registered for the event.
- Any players that do not take part in the online play-off, for whatever reason, will be excluded and no prize will be awarded.
- Players may not assign someone else to play on their behalf either online or at a land based casino.
- All online play-off prizes will be paid into the player's online account within 24 hours.
- All competitions must be played to a conclusion to be awarded GPL points.
- Any players found to be 'doing deals' for GPL points on the final table will be disqualified from the GPL.

- A minimum of 10 players are required for the event to take place and count towards the GPL.
- Please contact league@gukpt.com for any queries regarding the GPL.
- Players are only awarded points if they finish in the prize money. Standard prize structures are used across the board for all the league events.
