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.
You don't have to play this game long to know there is something weird going on. It seem like the most unbelievable hands are made on the river. There is no question that the site is fixed, the question is which site has loaned it's RNG to use? No site goes through the effort to rig a free site. Pokerstars?
Play WPT is the most ridiculous waste of time of any site in history. The run of idiotic cards FLUSH, FULL HOUSE, 4 of a kind, etc. Most unrealistic game ever! The worst is runner runner cards to hit a bad hand and many time is stupid all in calls. No fun at all it's so pitiful! Cut the grass if you need something to do.
Anyone whoever played on a real poker site can tell you, this is not real poker. I agree with everyone who has posted a review 100%.
So rigged, and to be associated with a supposedly respectable organization with top notch players is beyond belief.
No chat, no hand review, ridiculous bad river beats, no customer support! The only purpose with this so called poker site is to get YOUR money. Stay away or at least NEVER pay to play this site, you WILL lose period!
NO STARS IF POSSIBLE!
Play for awhile, you see it if you look. If you don't pay to play, the favoritism for those that do is so obvious. Pay at your own risk, if you just want to play for fun and not sink a lot of money into a hypocritical "FREE" online site. GO ELSEWHERE! Do not play this one. If you pay, you win, if not, you just keep losing just outside the money. SCAM SITE!
Tip for consumers:
If you pay for the service, your results in tournaments is better. Try the free play, You Will NEVER get to a Final

I've been playing now for about a month. If you're any good at poker, and really I'm a novice, you shouldn't have to buy gold. I'm up about 630K. Some nights I'm up a bit and some down a little.
Really it's just a video game than can be a fun pastime.
The game is rigged no doubt but when you win the prizes cash prizes sometimes you get sometimes you don't they always have an excuse in why you havnt recd your prize money not worth the effort any longer

It is disgusting how WPT programs the game, If you have lower chips 87% of the time you are going to lose. My friends and I charted the game for almost a year and it works out you will lose if you have a lower stack of chips. If you have have an A/8 Clubs and the other guy has A/8 Hearts and you have less chips guarantee you there will be run of 3 Hearts. You send them an email and they say it is defaulted the game is at random which is BULL. It is disgusting why they do this for a time saver. Stop fixing the Game!
I had 77 aq raised 55 called and 77 called the flop was q75, aq bet 55 called I shipped it, they both called, 300 mil in pot, and the turn and river were aa, lol no fn way would that ever happen, he was 1%..
Even the free play site is rigged because they want you to buy play chips.
I know a person who worked for there tech department and he told me it
Was totally rigged!

I am more intelligent than to let PlayWPT.com access my financial accounts. It is an untrustworthy website full of scammers.
I have been playing this site during the free trial period. I will not be subscribing. Their RNG is horrendous. I can not count the number of times I have lost 4 of a kind to a straight flush or a better 4 of a kind, while holding 4Q's or even Kings. I can have the nut flush and lose to a straight flush. Losing a bad beat is part of the game but the high number of occurrences is far beyond the odds would indicate. So for that reason I would not reccommend o play on this particular sirte.
Have about 15 checks that are more than 6 months old and bank won't cash them. After 3 or 4 emails with no results, called customer service and was informed that there is nothing they can do about it. Asked where my winnings went they said after the checks have expired the funds are deposited back into their account.
THIS IS NO WAY TO RUN A COMPANY THERE HAS GOT TO BE A LAW AGAINST THIS!
Tip for consumers:
Wasn't too bad until the expired check fiasco

Their algorithm is a joke. It must have been written by dropouts from the College of Moronic Coders. It's almost impossible to win so many hands on the river. Especially with garbage hole cards. I know bad beats happen but if you bet big with a 2/7 off suit, you'll absolutely increase your chances of winning.
In close to 30 years of playing and watching poker, I've seen only a handful of the top 3 ranked hands. However, in less than two months with this app, I've seen close to a dozen #1 and 2 ranked hands, and literally lost count of the number of quads I've seen. Check out the screen shots of just a few of the extremely rare hands I have gotten. Amazing, aren't they? Great hands, but how often do they really happen? Actually, quite a lot with this app.
Nothing tops the amount deuce sets I've seen, though. When a deuce comes on the river, it's at least a 50% chance your 2 pairs are losing so you might as well muck.
So in closing, If you like an impossibly high number of bad beats on the river, but also want to see an impossibly high number of top hands, this app is for you.
Obviously rigged to make sure you start losing and always ridiculous bad beats on the Turn and River. I flop a flush and someone goes all in with 8/3 off and hits runner, runner Full House. I flop or turn a full house and someone hits runner runner 4 of a kind or straight flush. This has happened consistently every single day since I won my second Free Roll tournament and accumulated 1.4M chips. It is so obvious PlayWPT is draining my stack so I get suckered into buying gold. Nope, not gonna happen. In fact, it has become so frustrating that I'm quitting and leaving 1.1M behind. Back to the twice a week home games for me. Hef you ClubWPT!
I'm a pretty decent poker player in live games, not a pro by any means but good enough. On the ring games on WPT i couldn't figure out why I kept getting bad beats. I mean everyone has them, sometimes a lot in a row but I was having them all the time. Like stupid bad beats and I understand that it's not real money so fish will play hands to the bitter end, but... this is way beyond. I fell for it for a while and bought more chips, the more I bought the more I lost so finally I had a duh moment and started looking on the net for sites like this. Lightbulb moment replaced the duh moment and it all made sense. They want you to buy more chips so it isn't really a fair or "free" site. WPT can suck it. Also I'm done playing their live tourneys at my local casino, who knows what s**t they're pulling there. Adios muchachos
Tip for consumers:
Don't bother
Been playing on line poker for 15 yrs and thought I had seen it all until Donk club wpt! Beware of the massive herds of donks in there! Especially in the points free rolls but even in the larger cash games. Also the site is not regulated and the site will not acknowledge there dealing program is 100% random? I mostly play in there now for laughs and for now I let them rob me each month 28 bucks. Whether or not its rigged the biggest issue is the site attracts the worse donks on the planet. I mostly play to destroy these idiotic spazz donks.
We need to write congress for oversight they take money from the consumer than /;() u the game is rigged the odds of bad beats statistically impossible
Garbage, there are fewer bots on twitter and the sight is RIDICULOUS with glitches and cheats, I certainly would never pay or give them any REAL money. Don't waste your time or money, there are MUCH better poker sites.
Ive played for a few years. Mostly because i live in a state (VT) where their are no casinos or card rooms allowed. The card odds (or random number generator machine as they call it) are a joke and its very easy/common to see the odds stack against your favor. If you play on this site, take everything you know about smart card playing and forget it.
As far as the payouts are concerned, they "lost" a 300$ payout check and refused to issue another one. Customer service is a joke because they "bubble it up" to the "management" and it goes nowhere from there. I have gotten paid from them occasionally but to cash out it takes about 2 months for them to send the check (again if they don't lose it in the processes).
NEVER spend real money for the points. You are given enough points each day to give you a minumum of 650 points to play with. If you need more than that and cant win on your own, stick to the free play or look for local real games to get practice (Once the world returns to "normal")
The players on the free app are AWFUL. They call all in raises with 9 -2 off suit 7-4 off suit. It is RIDICULOUS. Vince Van Patton and Mike Sexton you are an EMBARRASSMENT! Will NEVER join your app or watch your BS WPT tour $#*! again.
WHAT A JOKE, AND YOU CONTINUE TO DO NOTHING ABOUT IT! STOP USING CONSTANT ACES AND KINGS IN OVER 80% OF ALL FLOPS AND STOP WITH THE CONSTANT BAD BEATS! AA IS USUALLY THE WORSE HAND YOU CAN GET IF ANYONE CALLS YOU! YOU WILL LOSE TO 2,3 OFF SUIT ABOUT 80% OF THE TIME. WORSE RIGGED GAME ONLINE!
Still waiting for replacement checks of winnings as when I opened the envelope of the initial checks (carefully may I add), it slightly tore & according to the bank can not deposit. Called CLUBWPT for replacements... OVER 3 MONTHS AGO & STILL NOTHING (was told 3-4 weeks). Cancelled my membership & looking ahead.
Tip for consumers:
Turn around, walk away & don't look back!!!

Try to get people to buy chips. When I start winning, they freeze my hand. And you have to call them to close your account. Don't waste your time or money.
Tip for consumers:
Stay away.
