The World Poker Tour is one of the most iconic brands in poker, with major live events worldwide, including the WPT World Championship – seen as second only to the WSOP Main Event.
But what about it's online counterpart?
For US players in more than 40 states, ClubWPT is a lifeline and we’re going to show you how to get the most out of your membership – more access, more opportunities to improve your game, and ultimately more chances to take your game to the next level.
For those who don’t know, ClubWPT is a subscription-based online site, which allows players not only to play for real money but also parlay online success into live tournament seats.
With the WPT brand and the likes of Vince Patten, Tony Dunst and Phil Ivey on board, this is an elite and trusted club.
Newbies are welcome, naturally, and there are play money options as well as more serious events, not to mention a one month free trial membership exclusive to PokerOrg. Use ORGVIP when you sign up to claim that.
ClubWPT Diamond – taking the game seriously
But if you’re serious about your game, what you really want is a ClubWPT Diamond membership, a step up from the basic VIP account.
There is a long list of reasons why it’s worth going the extra mile, not least of which is the exclusive schedule of Diamond tournaments.
You get bigger prizes and at least one prominent event per day, but there’s much more to it, with perhaps the most important element being your access to LearnWPT and its Insider Access Plan. And that’s where real change can happen.
LearnWPT Insider Access plan
LearnWPT Insider Access training is “designed to fix your leaks and get your game in shape,” and to get you there you’ll have exclusive access to 22 easily digestible strategy videos, as well as 11 WPT GTO Trainer scenarios.
The latter puts you through your paces, with hundreds of GTO-solved hands revealing how theory meets practice, increasing your knowledge in the same way that the pros work.
Add in a host of downloadable charts and tools for hand reviews, in addition to the indispensable “Ask a Pro” forum, and you’ve got $99 per month of added value right there.
And there's more...
Super SATurdays membership
Sundays may be set aside for the weekly grind, but it’s Saturdays at ClubWPT where things are really happening for the players looking to turn their online play into the live experience of a lifetime.
The exclusive Super SATurdays tournaments are described as “perfect for players who want the ClubWPT experience but don't necessarily have time to play multiple days and several tournaments”.
Up for grabs every Saturday are multiple WPT passports worth $2,500 each, with even bigger prizes on offer some weeks.
On April 27, for example, top prize, is an incredible $12k WPT World Championship Passport, with the next four getting a $2500 Prime package, and places six to nine getting a share of $500 cash.
Super SATurdays – CHAMP level training
Satellites take their own strategy to master but this is a holistic solution. Upgrading your membership to Super SATurdays unlocks a whole new level of LearnWPT as well.
CHAMP level training (worth $199)is focused on improving your satellite play, with elite players at the reins of your tuition: Andrew 'Lucky Chewy' Lichtenberger, Tony Dunst, Michael Gagliano, Eric Lynch, Nick Binger, Adrian Naggy, and Brian Altman are all on the roster to help you achieve your goals.
Lichtenberger came second in last year's WPT World Championship and knows a thing or two about getting through big field events. You can sample his unique approach to poker strategy in the regular column he does for PokerOrg.
The curriculum features:
- Satellite strategy (including milestone satellites)
- Three-betting and post-flop play
- Button and big blind defense
- Detailed GTO response charts
You can watch videos from the pros, then put those strategies to work with the WPT GTO trainer. Pros are on hand to give you direct answers to the problems specific to your game.
Throw in two annual opportunities to attend a Live LearnWPT Workshop at key WPT events and you’re giving yourself as much chance as possible to be a winner.
If you want to take your game to the next level, it's a package that offers everything you need to learn from, and then take on, the pros in some of the biggest tournaments in the world.
