We’re happy to announce that PocketFives’ online poker league for US players is coming back! It has been a couple of years, but our free league returns this Wednesday, May 6, to TexasHoldem.com. Games will take place every Wednesday at 9:00pm Eastern Time and over $1,000 in cash will be given away every month.

Sign up for TexasHoldem.com here. Once you do, look in the main tournament lobby for each game, sign up, and then log back in when it’s game time. Your table will automatically open when the tournament starts.

You’ll need a new reward code every week, which will serve as your password for the game. The reward code for the May 6 game is “pfives” without the quotes. Check out our Official League Thread to see the new code every week.

TexasHoldem.com accepts US players. Our league is completely free and we’ll be holding a special PocketFives Open in June that will be open to US players as well! This is just one way we’re saying thank you to our US players who have stuck around PocketFives while regulated real money online poker slowly rolls out.

Each week, the top 10 finishers in our league game will receive points towards an overall monthly leaderboard. The weekly points will be distributed as follows:

1st Place: 100 points
2nd Place: 75 points
3rd Place: 60 points
4th Place: 50 points
5th Place: 40 points
6th Place: 30 points
7th Place: 25 points
8th Place: 20 points
9th Place: 15 points
10th Place: 10 points

Once again, the league is free. Just sign up for a TexasHoldem.com account here and enter each week’s game! There are four games on deck for May:

Wednesday, May 6 at 9pm ET
Wednesday, May 13 at 9pm ET
Wednesday, May 20 at 9pm ET
Wednesday, May 27 at 9pm ET

Thank you very much to TexasHoldem.com for hosting the league and funding the prizes! We’ll see everyone on Wednesday.
