To promote and provide poker tournament venues for women poker players seeking opportunities to challenge other women in comfortable, friendly, and yet competitive environments.
LIPS is a collaborative effort between the Ladies International Poker Series and Casinos. This collaboration features women in poker by providing a "Middle Buy-In" venue for ladies to play. The target market is the woman who has been playing for a while and wants a bigger challenge. This is an excellent way for your casino to show the world that you support of women in poker!
This is our eigth season!
Over 10,000 women have played in our
tour since we started and there are
new women coming into the sport all
the time. A carefully crafted ladies
poker program can be a fabulous
addition to your poker room!
Tournament Design: Casino partners provide a minimum of a one-day tournament for women poker players. The tournament is No Limit Hold Em with a $100 to $500 Buy-In + Fees ($10 per player is paid to LIPS Tour for advertising and administrative expenses) We have discovered that conducting Single Table Satellite tournaments prior to the main event is highly successful for higher numbers in the main event.
Prize Packages: Your tournament winner represents your casino at
the LIPS Tour Grand Championship event in
the summer in Las Vegas.
The prize package is taken from the tournament prize pool to cover the event. If for some reason your casino is restricted from doing so, we make the first place percentage "heavy" to cover the package.
- The LIPS Tour Grand Championship
prize package is only $230 for a seat
in the tournament so it's affordable
and doesn't take a lot away from a
prize pool. (LIPS Tour will handle the
registering your winner for the LIPS Championship)
LIPS will provide a
certificate for the winner and more!
We create a fun environment
for playes. This includes seat
prizes, promotional items and photos
taken for future download.
Casino Partners are included in all LIPS Tour advertising campaigns. To be promoted in print publications, internet advertising, and at LIPS Tour Events. We will provide your marketing department with LIPS Tour logos, etc, for use in your usual tournament promotions.
What does LIPS Tour need from you?
- Host a one day tournament, $100 to $500 plus fees ($10 per player paid to LIPS Tour)
- Conduct single table
satellites the morning of the
event if possible.
- Promote your ladies event as you would any
other specialty event.
- Withhold $230 from the prize pool, or your casino can host the package as an add on...
it's your choice.
- Provide the winner with casino gear they can wear to
yhe LIPS Tour Championship event.
- Provide complimentary accommodations for two nights for the LIPS Tour Representative. (Usually the day before and the day of the event)
This is an exciting venture! Time for women in poker to step up and be counted! We hope you will join us in support of new and upcoming women poker players around the world!
We also conduct several unique open
events. Gender Defender, Guys & Dolls,
All In or Fold, and others. We'd be
happy to discuss these programs with
you as well.
