Qualifiers for WPT tournaments
Stable, good-looking software
Huge ring games traffic
Somewhat low sign up bonus
Just three years after the very first WPT event - the Five Diamond world Poker Classic - took place at the Bellagio in Las Vegas in 2002, the wildly popular World Poker Tour emerged into the
online poker market with WPT Poker. However, the World Poker Tour-branded
online poker room wasn't quite the booming success of it's highly publicized live poker namesake.
Though it has taken several years for
WPT Poker to gain a secure foothold in the online poker industry, WPT Poker is no longer the struggling spectacle it once was. An abundance of alluring
online poker promotions, a massive player base, and improved player loyalty
rewards have helped WPT Poker to finally establish a competitive edge as an online poker provider.
Located on the Bwin.Party
network, WPT Poker boasts a huge traffic volume, with soft competition buzzing about the micro and low limit games. The software is adequate for both new and experienced players, offering the standard features and lobby filtering options players expect to speed things along. A 100% welcome bonus for new real money players, and
VIP program for loyal players, both offer lucrative rewards for choosing to play at WPT Poker.
First-time depositors at
WPT Poker may claim up to $200 in free cash with our exclusive WPT Poker deposit bonus code pg2012. By entering this code during the first deposit, players will qualify for a 100% deposit match from WPT Poker. Players will need to accumulate 6 WPT Points for each $1 of the
WPT Poker bonus within 60 days in order to release the bonus cash.
WPT Poker also offers a tiered reward system to encourage player loyalty. The more WPT Points players earn each month, the more valuable the rewards. Players can spend their points on tournament entries,
gift certificates, or exchange them for cash or bonuses. The clearing requirements of WPT Poker's Rewards bonuses are 25% of the bonus cost in points, and are released in 5 increments.
As one would expect from an online poker room bearing the logo of one of the most recognizable live poker tours in the world, WPT Poker's online poker promotions are headlined with numerous live event opportunities. With a tiny investment in a low buy-in satellite, a tournament player just might find themselves living the dream at the WPT or WSOP.
Other online poker promotions at WPT Poker include the $200K Guaranteed on Sundays, $100K in
freeroll prizes each month, and $30K Guaranteed Weekdays held Monday through Thursday. Players will also find challenges such as leaderboard contests and Sit and Go step tournaments at WPT Poker.

The WPT Poker software may be downloaded for free to a windows-based PC. Providing secure, reliable access to all of WPT Poker's online poker cash games and tournaments - as well as the World Poker Tour online casino offerings - the software is adequately equipped with all of the personalization options required to improve game speed and playability.
Supporting only four tables at once, the WPT Poker software may prove somewhat disappointing to multi-tablers who need to play more than a few tables simultaneously in order to stay interested. Other features that are noticeably absent from the WPT Poker software include live chat support, and a no-download poker room for Mac and Linux users, or those trying to access their account from a remote computer.

Sharing in the massive player traffic of the Bwin.Party online poker network, there is plenty of action to be found at WPT Poker. The No Limit Hold'em cash game tables draw thousands of players at any given time, while Pot Limit Omaha and Fixed Limit Hold'em are always buzzing with significant activity. Double Hold'em,
Omaha Hi/Lo,
7 Card Stud and 7 Card Stud Hi/Lo tend to attract fewer players, however, there are usually enough active players to keep fans of these less common poker forms entertained.
Naturally, there is plenty of soft competition to be found at the micro-limits of WPT Poker's No Limit Hold'em and No Limit Double Hold'em cash tables. However, one can occasionally find a few loose, juicy games in the $5/$10 range of NLHE or PLO.
The customer support team at WPT Poker may be contacted 24 hours a day, 7 days a week via email. WPT Poker also provides toll free telephone support to players located in the UK. An extensive
FAQ has also been supplied covering all of the most commonly asked account, cashier and game play questions.
