So I read alot of these reviews. Lots of pissed off people. Here's what I say about it. The run free tournaments evert 10 minutes. They offer a variety of Texas hold-em games from limit to no limit and from standard to omaha hi-low (I'd like to see more of those). But you have to understand that these tournaments have to go fast. So whatever shuffle they use pops out alot of winners! Unlike a tournament at a casino, the shuffling is artifical, it has to be. They run 144 or so tournaments in a 24 hour period. At the casino, a pair almost always wins, not here. So relax and play for entertainment.
Not a good site to learn poker. You will win more times with 7-2 off-suit. Then A-A...WPT Stands for.Who-Plays-That! It's just a scratch off ticket you play everday at your local gas stations's. There here to make money not give it away.
I used to win enough to pay the nearly $30.00 monthly ripoff fee. I usually won more. Once I won a $500.00 prize. Every once in a while they paid when I requested it. But they usually didn't. They wouldn't respond to the request or they would say they already paid and they need 30 days to "investigate." Then you'd never hear back. Why do I keep playing? Convenience at this point. Obviously immoral people run the site, ok. For fun, I'm going to start asking their celebrity employess on their Twitter feeds why they don't pay. And Facebook. And write a standard letter for each state Attorney General. Why waste my time? My time is not valuable. Unrelated topic: It really does seem obvious when the bad beat comes up so often, like clock work.Don't slow playy A-A because you're likely to get beat by 2-2. Not because another two will come up; but because he will beat you with a straight or flush. Lame. Also, some players disappear or slow the game down and there's nothing you can do about it.

Getting out of here!
I believe it is dishonest
Lot of very bad beats-
Many "magic cards" on last card!
You can win but PlayWPT decides when you can win and LOSE. Obiously rigged system! More bonus chips to win, you LOSE more. NEVER pay a cent for chips! Don't be a sucker!
I have played them all, and WPT is without a doubt the worst scam of a poker site I've ever seen. Do not spend any money on this rigged site.
Not only do you have to watch commercials during play time. Buy coins and for ever lose. Not even close to real poker.
Scam unless you spend a lot of money buying chips. Bad beats over and over. Even when you get good hands you are beat by ridiculous cards.
Why is that? Every other poker site is happy to provide detailed information! Who regulates Club wpt?
Worst site ever, nothing but tv bingo players and the worst system ever. Get good hands and they deal you out. Very slim chance of winning
Bad system to deal, I figure it out though, but still I dont like your computer system of dealing the cards.
I played the first month, i won some small tourneys. The site was looking good! As the days went into the second month I started noticing bad beats way above normal numbers i ignored it. Then i started getting bad beats even worse especiallly in the 1000. Not very big tourneys, I know how to play over 35 years ive played and all over the country. Ok they started in with more and more bad beats, just like others have said they put a crew on you and your not gonna win giving them every card they need. I am stubborn i knew i could beat them im better than they are but then they really got nasty, every time i go in couldnt go all in cause they always had an answer always they win and there people just play everuy hand and darte u to jump in but pretty much unwinable poker. If you want to play poker dont go here i have to tell you it wont go your way its reactive hardware u push it reacts, no matter what you do forget this site they are worste than bad never giving 8you good cards even. I still went right up to the final table even with bad hands but good luck trying to win all they will teach you is how to loose real bad!

Too many bad beats often! I know it's a free site but come on man! What algorithm are you using? Hello..
Did not buy any chips despite constant reminders to. Ran chip count to 8,984,600. Bad beat after bad beat. How the Scheme works, you are dealt good staring cards, one card would consistently match the flop and sometimes pair up with high card. As an example dealt A/K, the flop 6, K, 10. Have pair of K's, seat 3 raises (30K), seat 6 calls, I call, turn is an ace, (top two pair), seat 3 bets pot (60K), seat 6 calls, you call, the river is a dud 3, seat 3 raises, seat 6 bumps it (120K), I call with top two pair. Seat 3 folds and seat 6 reveals pocket 3's. This scenario happens occasionally but once I reached almost 9M, it happened consistently, out of the blue bad beats. My flushes K high were always beat by A on the river. How many straight flushes have you ever seen, I lost to 5, I'm dealt A, K of spades, flop Is 5, 6, 9 of spades, seat 3 bets 90K, seat 6 calls, I call, turn is 4 of spades, I raise 245K, seat 3 calls, seat 6 calls, river is 3 spades, no bets but seat 3 folds?, seat 6 shows Q hearts and 2 of spades. Not in your wildest imagination can you call this a bad beat. Eventually you see the pattern, On the flop I have premium hand, seat 2 raises, following seat calls, I call, on the turn seat 2 raises, all call, on the river seat 2 again raises, seat 6 has minimal raise river, seat 2 the original raiser always folds, seat 6 sucks out and wins. Other times I would go all in on the river, bet is called, screen goes black, and some other seat wins But you never actually see the winning hand. This site is a well set up fraud.
This Game has players that use cheating software and the owner does not care. The site will also not refund your money. The Site is a total ripoff..
I used to love to play poker play wpt has made me hate the game it is so unreal with the odds i'd like to punch the programmer it the face great job
I have a FREE account and refuse to hand over my credit card for them to charge me. I was once signed up on their ClubWPT (it was their first free poker version on the internet) but then WPT sold ClubWPT to CHINA! China kicked me off of their site since I was FREE. I signed up for PlayWPT hoping for the best, but oh no the worst happened. They now OWE ME 200K for winning TWO tournaments, I still have no resolution and it's all due to the fact that my account is still FREE. So, rigged, rigged, rigged all day long and if you have a FREE account they will phase you out like they are me because all they want is your credit card number to charge you REAL money for FAKE gold money on their site to play. IT's a scam, NO ONE at PlayWPT has ever answered a single email I sent about the 200K that's owed to my account. So, if you hand over your credit card and have a problem, good luck on getting anyone to help you, BECAUSE THEY WON'T! You have been warned, proceed with extreme caution with PLAYWPT and CLUBWPT. In my opinion The World Poker Tour's reputation has been damaged beyond repair for me.
Total scam. Impossilble to win. Bad beat after bad beat. Draining your chips to force you to buy more.
I had a GREAT START UNTIL I won a $20 NLH tourney and cashed out my $10. There are only about mab 5000-6000 people playing at any givin time Hmmmm. Its played in MANY STATES so about mab 150 per STATE? WHY BECUASE once you pay and play there 1 month U WILL CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION I QUARENTEE THAT. ITS A BLEEPING ALL IN JOKE and U CANT WIN WHEN YOU ARE SEEMINLY PLAYIG AGAINST WPT WORKERS THAT KNOW THE OUTCOME OF EVERY HAND. I MEEM REALLY. Its been around a long time and everyone on the site I CHATTED WITH DURING GAMES SAY THE SAME THING FRIGGING JOKE. PLAIN AND SIMPLE, IF IT WERE A REAL REPUTABLE SITE IT WOULD HAVE ******* or more members playing ALL THE TIME but 3200 player NLH tourneys For $5000 CASH DO NOT EVEN FILL UP. YOU DO THE MATH. I am CANCELLING MY MEMBERSHIP AFTER 3 WEEKS. MAKES ME SICK WHAT THEY REALLY ARE A BLEEPING JOKE,. Tnkx Rex

Why I decided to cancel my membership:
1. Speed. Site is extraordinarily SLOW. They allow FAR too much time for every bet, and most of the players sit there and take every damn second of it to make the simplest decisions, regardless of the blinds, point in the game, etc. It is stupid to make everyone waste all of this time. For example, I have played several single table Sit-and-Go's and some of them have taken as long as 1.5 – 2 hours. Ridiculous.
2. "Sitting Out" – this is a complete joke. What exactly is the point of this "sitting out" function anyway? They don't have any explanation of it on the web site, which is also just plain dumb. I think the very first and most important thing someone running a web site like this must do is to clearly explain ALL of the rules and functionality of the site. If sitting out is just so someone can run to the bathroom or something, then that is fine. But they allow people to sit out forever, especially in tournaments. Then they also, amazingly, even allow people to win a hand even when they are supposedly sitting out? What the heck? I've even been sitting at a table with several other players, and EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM is sitting out. So I sit there hand after hand just clicking away. Who goes to a poker site and then sits out for half an hour or whatever? This is REALLY dumb and must be better policed!
3. Loyalty Points – I supposedly have over 30,000 loyalty points. So what? No place on the web site does it tell us what these are or what they are used for. How can they go to the trouble of creating something like this and then neglect to thoroughly explain it? They must have just got bored when they were building this web site and decide it wasn't worth the trouble to do it properly and professionally. I would think that for the exorbitant monthly cost ($27.95) they could at least do it right for Christ sakes.
4."Ring Games" – it is next to impossible to get on a ring game table. Even when it shows that there is room on a table you always seem to find the table full.
5. Cost – I'm sorry, but the return you get for a monthly VIP cost of $27.95 is just not there. The vast majority of games that even offer a few dollars back is a paltry amount. I mean $10? Really? The cost of a Diamond membership ($147.95) is a complete joke and I can't imagine ever spending that much money on it.
They need to seriously re-think this entire thing. I thought Zynga was the worst poker site out there. At least now I know they are just second worst - to ClubWPT.
This site is more rigged than a texas jack rabbit trap. Don't waste your time or money, it's crap!
