The JPA was started in October of 2004
The JPA supplies locations for people from all over the Jacksonville Fl. area to play Texas Hold 'em Tournaments FREE of charge with NO TIPPING/PAYING DEALERS, NO BUY-IN or SIGN-UP FEE of any kind to our players. Each tournament is setup & run by the JPA in different bar & restaurant locations weekly around the Jacksonville area. Millions of people are on-line playing Texas Hold'em daily, but that does not compare to playing in person with other players of varying skills & trying to read people for bluffs. These are NOT TURBO GAMES. You aren't forced to play because blinds go up so fast that you can't play your cards the way you want to. This is the REAL THING!
The JPA is giving the public a much-needed outlet to join in the fastest growing phenomenon in the country today & FREE of charge. Players learn to hone their skills as well as enjoy the excitement & camaraderie of a live tournament situation without gambling. Playing with JPA is the BEST way to prepare players to ready themselves for cash play at the local card room, on board the gambling boats or even Las Vegas, but most play because it's just good clean fun!
