Data Standards
How The Poker List Reviews Poker Data
The Poker List is built from public poker information that players can verify. We focus on current or upcoming tournaments, live cash-game listings, and venue pages with enough context to help a player decide what to confirm before traveling.
Active Venue Standard
A venue is treated as active only when it has source-backed tournament rows, cash-game rows, or both. A directory listing by itself is not enough to count as active coverage.
Source Types
- Official casino and poker-room schedule pages.
- Public poker tour, league, and event calendar pages.
- Public APIs or structured feeds made available for live poker schedules.
- Room-specific cash-game pages with stakes, buy-in ranges, or table availability notes.
Normalization
Public poker schedules use inconsistent names and formats. The Poker List normalizes common game types, venue names, addresses, guarantees, buy-ins, start dates, and recurring schedule notes so players can compare rows across sources.
Freshness And Review
Generated feeds include source-check timestamps, duplicate checks, location consistency checks, static asset checks, and quality reports. Older or stale source checks are flagged for review, and feed regression guards are used before publishing generated data.
Corrections
Send corrections, source links, or venue update requests to info@thepokerlist.com. Include the venue name, city, event date, and source URL when possible.
