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.

Site is a con job
November 2, 2021

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.

You can be and won the hand and in WPT they give the chips outright to another player. This happens OFTEN. Have contacted then concerning this and it still continues. SAD. ITS A DAMN GAME WHY THE CHEATING.

Months ago I wrote a scathing rebuke to WPT's claim of "they teach you real poker". A number of us had been keeping track of the "bad beats" and "suck outs" for 3 years. Having played Holdem since 1979, we felt the percentages speak to not even close real world figures. At the time I said 63.7% of the time the river killed a solid hand. Well guess what. It is now 71.67% of the time. Pocket pairs or 10's of larger get beat 79.83% of the time. There are at least 2-3 "props" at each table during certain hours with algorithms set to win at least 75% of the time no matter your hand. I could go on with what we found but it would take days. WPT online is so fake that it is laughable. Why anyone would actually pay to play on their site is absurd. They teach you nothing about real Holdem that is even 1% useful. A billion dollar company, from their TV and "staged competitions", should be ashamed of the utter lack of credibility they present. But as always, as PT Barnum once so aptly put it: "there is a sucker born every day". If you want to really learn Holdem then go to your local card club, or Casino, and watch real money in front of real live people and take mental notes. Good Luck!

Terrible Game
December 3, 2020

Said, "hey I'll download this and maybe actually win some money for nothing". So you create an account which they require a credit card but you get 14 days free. Found I did not live in a state that allows cash prizes so I'm blocked from those games. Try to play in a tournament and damn game is so buggy I was forced to sit out several hands because the damn buttons wouldn't register. Finally quit and went to my account to cancel THERE IS NO LINK TO CANCEL YOUR ACCOUNT OR EVEN CONTACT THE SERVICE. I had to go online and search out how to cancel my subscription. In addition you will get constant popups to but useless SH**, probably the most frustrating poker game of all not because of bad play but horrible program: 0 stars.

This game is a rip-off. These people should be in jail. Not random at all. Tony Dunst should be ashamed. But of course that would require a human soul.

The worst poker site I have ever been on, and by far the worst ''just gaming site" ever. I was told by one person that the Supervisor wold fix my problem the next day and refund my money. But all they did is say sorry about your luck and have a nice day! They are just out there to "$#*! YOU UP THE $#*!" and get your money, and hope you like it! I called back and the lady said I was not allowed to talk to the Supervisor, he was beside her, telling her what to say! He was not man ENOUGH to get on the phone and talk to me, he had to get a Lady to talk for HIM!

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!

If you draw a great hand some one sitting at the table will stay in and draw on the last card to beat you and you can tell it is rigged because if you run out of chip it pops up to sell you more.

Want to learn how to play poker? This is the worst place ever. They know nothing of poker, they use lottery logic when it comes to Poker. They don't respect the game at all. These idiots want idiots who don't know the game to win. Good players get $#*!ed on the river. This is to make sure idiots who know nothing of Poker keep playing yet us who know the odds and the numbers get screwed regularly. I would say please don't use this site at all if you like poker. Even if you don't like Poker this is literally the worst place to play. Zinga is a better place to play and Zinga is $#*! too. Please don't play here to understand how Poker works because they don't either. This is the worst Poker site and it's 50 times worst than Zinga on Facebook. This is literally the worst site online for Poker players, new or old. This place should not be allowed to continue. Everyone should boycott it but new people who get to win on rivers against us people who understand the game. Well that's what keeps them coming back and then they lose too

Spent the last 7 days keeping statistics on every hand played, in holdem and tournaments, and was outraged how many times the last card won for a player... like 1 billion to one odds... no rewards for players either... a rigged game... if you play you are just another sucker... no sudch "good luck" in a rigged game... and no way to send them a comment... RIGGED GAME - DO NOT SPEND YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY IN THIS SUCKER ROOM PARLOR.

Cheating

I spend money to buy chips I'm tired of your business cheating. Play fair when people are paying money to play your game. It's obvious that you cheat on hands that are dealt

Free and Fun but Fixed
November 15, 2020

The Good:
- You can play for free and there are free tournaments to join. I've place to 5 in man and then there is some payout.
- At a low level, you can accumulate chips for free by winning hands and tournaments. I've accumulated over 2 million chips just through winning - not much but enough to play for free.

The Bad:
- The cards that come up are fixed by the computer so that you can easily lose. Many times there are multiple straights, flushes, and even full house hands in the same game. This is simply not possible wen one looks at statistics. I've had flush hands many times and then the last card give someone else a full house. Yes, this is possible, but when it happens over and over, then it's simply a fixed game.
- Play the game for a while and you see flops repeatedly that are 3 cards of the same suit. I've played poker for years in real games and this is not normal. On WPT poker, I seen this happen 2 times in row and 3-4 times in a round of 20 hands. Clearly either a glitch or a fix to ensure some players loose.

I don't put any real money into such a site as it ensures you will lose it. Play with free chips and it can be fun for a while. I'll be looking for a better site but not sure if there are any on-line poker sites that aren't rigged to take you money.
