Let's talk WPT Global! New Community Manager In The House

[Ami_WPT Global]

Hi @Ami_WPT Global 😊

Ok thanks a lot 🙏

Do u have any information about that pk9 network? I'm even more curious now after all that dodging 😄 😄

Hey @Suns of Beaches , As I said, that statement you quoted is not true, even if someone said it on Twoplustwo .

To give you more context, PokerKing is indeed a partner on our network; we are not a skin of theirs. Their software and features are quite different to ours and they are managed entirely separately. We have no insight or influence into how they are run.

So WPT global shares it's player pool with other sites like pk9? Is that correct? Because it would make a lot of sense regarding all the asian players.

Maybe u misunderstand the meaning of the word skin a bit. Skins are different sites run in the same network. They can have completely different features and can be run completely differently but they share the same pool of players.

How many sites are in total in this network and what is the name of this network?

Please note that for private support issues, contact our Customer Care at - customercare@wptglobal.com.

I look forward to some great poker conversations and contributing to the forum.

Thanks!

Hey @Suns of Beaches Yes, that is correct we share our players pool. I don't know the answer to your last question and do not have the authority to discuss other businesses.

Hi Ami.

I opened WPT today and an update process begin... but it's in 0%. I waited for several minutes and just stayed at 0%. So, I restarted my phone (I play at WPT from my phone) and tried again... same result. Then I visited WPT web page and click to download it... same thing, it's at 0%.

Hi Ami,
I have just received this Deposit offer but am not too clear on the details (I clicked on 'Terms & Conditions' but it just took me to the one big page but not to this specific Deposit offer).
I get it that it's a 25% rakeback type bonus (which interests me so I will likely make a deposit) But my question is -> In what increments is this bonus released? Is it $1 at a time?

thank you
DonCamente

 

[Poker Orifice]

And a question or more of a request actually...
On WPTglobal I can only find 5nl tables for the 'Pace' tables ('Zoom-style' cash tables)

Currently WPT only has the 0.02/.05/0.10 table, and then it jumps all the way up to $0.50/$1.00)
And, the 0.02/0.05/0.10 is actually '5nl' (when you buy in for 100bb's, it is $5)

Now the next table up from this is $0.50/$1.00, where you buyin for $100 (and the other offering at WPT is $1/$2, '200nl')

There really needs to be some others to fit inbetween these limits. I am positive that WPT would gain more players if they added in more buyin levels for this game (Pace).
Currently on the 0.02/0.05/0.10 tables there are 112 players
" 0.50/1.00 tables there are '0' players
" 1.00/2.00 tables there are '0' players.

For players who would like to 10nl or 25nl tables, there's nothing available for them (unless there's something in another currency aside from US $'s that I'm not aware of).
Honestly it just seems like poor organizing by WPT to not fill in this gap and get more players out playing on the site.

Thanks,
DonCamente

Here's a better screenshot of the Pace tables (this is at 14:30 ET or 19:30 GMT)

Awesome!

When I saw this new series and that it was a buyin, I was sold. Then when I went to register to it this evening, to my surprise I discover a ticket in my account! Thank-you Ami!

 

[Poker Orifice]

I got 6th place in the first game of the new League Series. Super happy about this and had a number of hands hold up & won a few flips to get there. At one point with just under 100 players left in it, I was down to just 2bb's. I won my next 5hands played and was up to 57bb's in less than 2 orbits, (went from 97th to 4th).
At the end I wasn't quite as fortunate. Shoved over a limper here with 99, he hit his timer and let it tick down for 57secs. and then called with the ATo. A 2to1 fav on the flop, 6to1 on the turn but it wasn't meant to be when 'ireadbooks' spiked a 6 for the straight. (not exactly sure what books they're reading but I'm guessing it's not Dara O'Kearney's recent stuff). I'm sure they were happy when the the 6 landed (& they went on to take it down).

Thanks Ami. It was fun. I can't wait til' next week.

Hi Ami,
Do you know if poker tracking software is allowed to be used on WPT global? I read today that drivehud2 works on WPT. Is this legal?
thanks in advance (& fwiw, I don't have this software and don't intend on getting it, just wondering if others are using it while I'm playing on there)

 

[Debi]

Ami has let me know that she is no longer working with WPT Global so I will close this thread for now.

Ami has been amazing, and we will miss her!

 

[Debi]

We will have a new WPT rep here to answer your questions soon!
