The Main Event over the years has been won by the likes of Gus Hansen, Michael Mizrachi, Phil Ivey and Anthony Zinno. During the early years of the poker boom, some of the top poker players in the country used to make it a must be play at the LAPC Main Event. The LAPC is the city’s longest-running poker tournament series and it has been a mainstay of many pro-poker players’ yearly tournament schedule. This year’s edition of the LAPC is special because it is the 25th anniversary of the LAPC.
The LAPC has continued to remain one of the most popular poker tours in the United States and poker players from all over the country have been coming to Los Angeles in droves to participate in this month and a half long poker celebration. The 2018 Los Angeles Poker Classic (LAPC) started on January 9 and will run until March 1.
