Essentials: What to Bring to a Poker Tournament – CardsChat.com

Its poker tournament travel time and, with COVID concerns dying out, many of us are planning on heading off to tournaments in the months to come. The World Series of Poker in Las Vegas will be starting in May, and there are lots of other tournament destination events for anyone whos willing to travel. With that in mind, heres a checklist of things to bring with you to the table in your next poker tournament.

I developed the following list after nearly 30 years of casino experience, and in conversation with dozens of other poker players. Of course, your specific needs may vary, so dont hesitate to add or remove items as you see fit.

I suggest you have a small shoulder bag or backpack to carry all of these items (except the money that you should keep on your person). While you may not need everything on the list, youll be better able to focus on your play, with these items close at hand.
