DeepStacks Poker League (dplpoker.com) is the premier free-to-play poker network in the St. Louis metropolitan area, dedicated to risk-free, competitive play. We provide an accessible, casino-style environment that bridges the gap between recreational pub poker and high-stakes professional tournaments.
Who We Are
Founded in 2009 in St. Louis, DeepStacks Poker League has grown into the go-to destination for local Texas Hold’em enthusiasts. Our mission is to combine the thrill and structure of major professional tournaments with a fun, social atmosphere. Supported heavily by our partnerships with Nightshift Bar & Grill, Hotshots Sports Bar & Grill and other local venues, we focus on building a strong, inclusive poker community right in your backyard.
What We Offer
- Risk-Free Play: There is absolutely no financial risk to play in our tournaments. We partner with local bars and restaurants; we only ask that players support the establishment by purchasing an appetizer or drink while they play.
- Casino-Quality Structure: We utilize authentic blind structures mirroring major tours (like the WSOP Monster Stack). This approach delivers slower play and less of the all-in madness often found in standard bar leagues.
- The Path to the Pros: Through our official affiliation with the Bar Poker Open, our players can win their way directly into multi-day world championship events with massive prize pools and life-changing money.
Our Vision
Whether you are a newcomer learning the game or a seasoned veteran looking to maintain your edge, DeepStacks provides the perfect training ground. We want to show that poker can be an engaging, community-driven sport that anyone can enjoy without the intimidation of the casino floor.
For those who travel or simply want to stay connected from home, we also run the highly competitive online DeepStacks USA games on the Bar Poker Open platform.
