Can I get a poker visa?

[BarbarianX]

I'm planning to give live tournaments a shot in August and want to play as many I can, WPT, WSOP, WSOP circuit etc. So I suppose I need some kind of visa since I'm a European citizen. Tried to check it out on the US embassy homepage, couldnt find any info though (how surprising). So my question is, how do non-US players on the circuit do? A 3 months tourist visa doesnt seem like an alternative, since it can be used maximum 180 days/year.

contact the US embassy in your country. They all have a branch dedictated to issuing Visas. If your're in Germany PM me i work at the emabassy here.

You would want to get an entertainment visa. I know thats what Gavin Smith has. You need to have a sponsor and I have no idea what that means. You could try contacting foreign poker pros and see what they did.
