It pains us to say that we will be officially POSTPONING the 2020 Vegas National Championship.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>As much as we probably saw this coming as things escalated in the past few weeks, it still is quite unbelievable that it has come to this.<\/p>\n

What about Your Reservations and Packages?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Any packages that were won will be applied to the new dates in June 2021.\u00a0 Golden Nugget will be cancelling any and all reservations made on the “BPO Block” and refunding any deposits or purchases.<\/p>\n

If you still want to go to Golden Nugget during these dates, you are welcome to, but you will need to re-book with them directly.\u00a0 No Championship Packages can be redeemed until the new Las Vegas 2021 dates.<\/p>\n

What does that mean for the 2020 National Championship and Qualifiers?
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

All seats won and packages won will be valid for the new Vegas Dates, in 2021.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We have made the decision, instead of trying to reschedule Vegas this year and \u201chope\u201d things will sort out in the fall, we are going to\u00a0join the 2020 Vegas Championship with the 2021 Vegas Championship for 1 Mega “2020-2021” Championship in Las Vegas in June 2021.<\/p>\n

Much more details to follow on that plan as we get more information that we simply do not have right now.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We will continue to run the \u201cRoad To Vegas\u201d 2020 Qualifiers until May 3rd, as they have always been scheduled.\u00a0\u00a0Any seats or packages won until May 3, 2020 will be for the rescheduled “2020 Vegas Championship\u201d that will now be held in June 2021.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are still 4 x “STEP 2: VEGAS QUALIFIERS” REMAINING So yes, you can still win your seats and packages on the Bar League PRO platform until May 3rd, and then we will be shifting gears a bit in a very exciting way to be announced Tuesday, April 28th!<\/p>\n

Those details have been always posted here:

\nThis will close out our 2019 – 2020 Season Qualifiers.
\n<\/strong>All seats, all invites earned, and all packages earned during the 2019-2020 Season will be held until June 2021 new dates.\u00a0 We will give more details on what our plan will be for the 2020-2021 season and\u00a0championships as we have them.<\/p>\n


\nWhat about next season?<\/strong><\/p>\n

We really do not have anything\u00a0to report on the East Coast Championship, and most likely that event is also very much in jeopardy\u00a0to being a viable option\u00a0for us in 2020, or at least in the same form we know.\u00a0 So instead\u00a0of trying to guess and start running qualifiers for AC, we will be doing some very exciting promotions with the online platform.<\/p>\n

 <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We DO have a very exciting announcement for our “Bar League PRO” games extremely rewarding in MAY to further improve on our exciting games online!\u00a0 May will be a very exciting month to look forward to with our online games \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n
