The India Poker Championship (IPC) have lined up the first-ever National Poker Tournament that will crown the India Poker Champion. The four-day mega event will kick off at Casino Royale, a floating casino moored on the river Mandovi in Panjim, Goa from December 2 to 5.

Indian poker fans finally get a chance to match their skill against one another in what will be a twice-a-month, round-the-year tournament, and a player ranking system or leaderboard will track performance and consistency of each player to decide the IPC Player of the Year (POY).
