Welcome to BARGE! ... but what is BARGE?

(insert images)

This is the home of BARGE, the Big August Rec.Gambling Excursion. BARGE is an online community of poker enthusiasts that hosts an annual event (of the same name) in Las Vegas, NV typically during the week leading up to the first Saturday in August. The event features several poker tournaments, as well as a wide variety of non-poker related activities including dinners, karaoke, a golf outing, a sushi outing, a fun run, room escapes, shows, and shopping. Activities can vary from year to year and are based on whatever people choose to organize. In recent years, we have also hosted a winter event, known as EMBARGO.

Our members communicate throughout the year via email, Facebook, Twitter and other means (including in person). BARGE began in 1991 and membership has grown significantly over the years. Our members come from all professions and ages. The poker accomplishments of our members include over 20 WSOP bracelet winners as well as other major tournaments (WPT, WSOP Circuit). Although we do find that many of our members have backgrounds in technology, science and the law, we welcome and encourage people to join regardless of their professional backgrounds or poker accomplishments.

BARGE Inc. is a 501(c)7 corporation registered in the State of Nevada.

Why Join Us?

Because you enjoy playing poker and want to be part of a diverse community of fun-loving people. We all enjoy the game of poker. We claim several WSOP bracelet winners among our membership. We also have novice players. We host tournaments and live games during our events. No one is pressured to play above their bankroll. We openly exchange ideas and many of our members have greatly enhanced their poker skills via BARGE. But the most important reason to join is: it's the most fun you will ever have playing poker! BARGE is what poker should be!
