About LPS

Thanks for visiting the home of The Louisville Poker Society, a non-profit private social club in Louisville, KY. Our club's draw is the Texas Hold'em league, which meets for 10 tournaments during the year with a Main Event tournament at the end of the year. While we are a private club, we do occasionally allow guests to participate in the hopes of expanding our membership. If you would like to be notified when such games occur, please use our contact form.

The Louisville Poker Society was formed in March of 2006 by Jack Riddle as an open home-based poker league. Jack had hosted a number of individual tournaments in prior years, and saw a great deal of interest among some of the regular players for more frequent games. The 2006 league was the result of that desire.

With the large player base and desire for more tournament action realized durring the first season, in late 2006 Louisville Poker Society Inc. became a private social club. As our total receipts do not meet the level required to apply for non-profit status, we operation as a 503(c)7 organization. Our members pay yearly dues that provide food at our events, cards, supplies and provides the prize pool for the Main Event.

We are now in our fifth year of Kentuckiana poker!
