What is OPC

Local play. European ranking.

  • OPC connects verified live poker series and events across Europe into one single international ranking system.
  • Playing locally and competing internationally is completely free of costs.
  • E-OPC tracks local live event results and places them on the international OPC ranking scoreboard.
  • Players and organizers only need a one-time verification — a quick 5–10 minute application to confirm participation.
  • Players who already have a GGPoker account (main sponsor) can simply send their confirmation and join once OPC approves.

Verified tournaments

Events are reviewed before they become part of the OPC ranking network.

Local points

Players compete locally and earn points toward the international European ranking.

Age-checked play

Participation is checked to support fair, legal, and responsible competition.

Free to join

Organizers and players can join without any participation fees.

Rules E-OPC advises the use of International Poker Rules as the standard base for all OPC-connected events. Organizers may add house rules to support their local communities, provided these are applied with full fairness and transparency to all players.

Available OPC Events

Dutch Poker Series events can become connected OPC opportunities once event details and verification steps are confirmed. No dates, winners, or rankings are shown until they are ready.

Supported by trusted names in poker

OPC works with rules, payment, event, and lifestyle partners who help support fair play, local organizer visibility, and a better player experience across Europe.
