Attn: players and fans of the poker league in Indiana! The Free Poker Network needs new bars to play at in the Indiana region. The locations which sponsored the league during the fall have not signed on to run the Party at the Palms World Series of Poker promotion. Ownership changes with those locations and other circumstances have been the reasons.
If you know of any bars who may be interested in sponsoring the league, the sponsor fee is only $60 per week. Players can earn a referral fee for helping find new locations. For details, click here.
