We’ve always looked at poker as an individual sport where you try to outwit everyone else at your tables, whether online or in person. However, the scenario is changing slightly in India as over the last couple of years, a few franchise leagues and tournaments have been hosted, and quite successfully too.
While one is the Poker Sports League (PSL), there’s also the Match Indian Poker League (MatchIPL) which has the same concept of franchise teams and they’ve completed four seasons over the years in India. Now, it’s an exciting time for the poker industry once again because MatchIPL Season 5 is here and with it comes a chance for each one of you to be among the qualifiers.
The MatchIPL tournament was founded by the International Federation of Match Poker (IFMP) and Viaan Industries with the first season taking place in 2017 and MatchIPL Season 5 will follow the same format this time as well, with the difference being that they signed an exciting new partnership with poker platform PokerMatch where the online qualifiers will take place.
If you want to be a part of this team-based poker event, you can do so for absolutely FREE. Every team has an allocation for those who come through online qualifiers, giving you the chance to be a part of the MatchIPL experience and play with some of the top professionals in the country.
