It may not be Las Vegas, but Texas Hold’em fans can be high rollers right here in Lawrence every Wednesday and Sunday nights at The Pool Room, 925 Iowa St.

Lawrence-based entertainment company, Poker Pub Inc., hosts no limit Texas Hold’Em tournaments at local bars around the region for anyone to play. With no entry fee and no pre-registration, anyone from those as experienced as two-time World Series of Poker Champion Doyle Brunson to someone who doesn’t know their “pocket rockets” can sit down to play at the same table.

“I think Poker Pub works because of the diverse group of people that come,” said Alex Saunders, Poker Pub official. “You have some people come in who have never played a hand in their life and others who have played in Vegas. It’s a wide, wide range.”
