[ClubWPTGold] Unofficial Thread

Make it so you don't have to click on join table at start of MTT's as it is hard to pay attention to that when playing other sites.

Ring game lobby is completely blank this morning?

Can see MTTs tho

Guessing it has to do with this:

https://clubwptgold.zohodesk.com/portal/...

The gist:
4% to rake cap. For 5+ players: micro caps at 3x the straddle (up to $.1/.2/.4). low caps at 2x the straddle (up to $1/2/4). $2/4/8+ caps at 1x the straddle.

Has anyone been able to get a hold of support? Trying to make a deposit and it keeps telling me the session has expired and shows my information totally wrong.
Sent numerous emails and no reply.

Sounds like Doug Polk helped convince them to lower the rake, especially for heads up.

Here's the new chart:

I'm going on almost 5 business days for a simple $300 cashout back to my debit card. Meanwhile, the option to cancel the withdrawl is still there. Dirty business tactics. Stall the withdrawl as long as possible in hopes the player gets frustrated and reverses. Some sweepstakes sites literally instantly withdrawl your money back to debit card. Stake.us is less than one business day wire back to bank

Obviously, cashouts are not a priority for Club WPT Gold.

I did a cashout via debit card on a Thursday evening and got the money in my bank by Monday afternoon. I also had the option to cancel all the way until Monday morning. Not sure why yours is taking that long. How did you get the option of a bank wire on Stake.us? I only have crypto options for withdraw and deposit

Another week....still no PLO and still one table at a time. Pretty wild for a poker site in 2025 with the WPT brand lol. Starting to think the Devs are incompetent. What a fumble

The story is similar on WPT Global, Alex left and replaced by Sam who posted recently that they were basically abandoning 2+2 as a support platform and only intends to briefly check in.

Not good after all the hype around this site previously.

Think we'll have a table in a pop up window by 2026?

Pretty sure I used code Rampage.

My experience after playing on ACR Bovada and such I can say that the feel is human vs human poker hands.

It’s refreshing to see actual punters punting and not run into the top of ranges and get botted/GTO scammed every street but Still losing to runouts but WTFEIN, but that doesn’t mean it’s off the table to happen in the future.

Guaranteed MTTs smash the guarantee and only allow for 1.5 hrs late reg and have capped Re entries. All things I like

I deposited $200 through either Apple Pay or my bank card and it goes through instantly. I like the interface and everything seems smooth.

I requested a $40 cash out and it was in my account in 3 days. Cool.

I won 1230 and requested a cash out of 850 on (3-17) and it took 3 days for them to send the W-9 which I’ve filled out and sent back today. Unlikely I filled out the form wrong but I’ll post back any correspondence.

This is obv a huge turn off as people have said and what’s to stop me from cashing out 200$ a week to avoid the W-9 or once my 3rd withdraw hits the 600$ threshold will that trigger another W-9?

I guess just win big AF and it won’t matter anyway?

A W-9 is just a form that gives them information necessary for them to send you a 1099 at the end of the year. You shouldn't need to do more than one of them, and the $600 threshold is for the year - so if you redeem for more than that in a year they will report that information to the IRS and also send you a 1099.

The more I think about it the more pro W9 I am. Keep these euro turds from vpning. Also will be more difficult for bots to set up farms and multi account

Cool thanks. That’s fine then. I will just have to deduct my losses or get with a CPA.

So cash out request 3-17
3-20 Form given today filled out and received my deposit in my account.

So now I should be able to just cash out no W-9 again and can report this all as income next year.

I’m a fan of this site esp if they diligently go after cheaters and bots.

I don't mean to be Debbie Downer here but with Arkansas adding their state to to the list today we now have Arkansas, Connecticut, Florida, Maryland, Mississippi, Nevada, New Jersey, and New York all have bills to ban sweepstake sites (just hasn't been enforced yet)...... plus Idaho, Michigan, Montana, and Washington already do. The writing is on the wall, this isn't going to end well. I was hoping this was a success but......

Haven't been able to log in at all today.

Getting this message "Sorry, ClubWPT Gold is not yet available in Washington, Idaho, Montana and Michigan."

I'm in New York State.

Looks like there is a new time bank feature today. It appears as though it costs 10 cents to add 10 seconds of time. Not sure if that changes depending on stakes (I was playing 100NL). I did not use the feature when I played this morning but I’ll try to test it out next time I play.

Looks like it does vary by stake, as I saw someone post a screenshot on Twitter with a different price.

I guess this is designed to speed up the game and minimize tanking, but it’s a pretty weird thing to do.

Was really excited about the launch of this site late last year. Then it turns out

- They launched with the worst software imaginable that was nowhere near ready, and are slow making improvements
- They have tax reporting requirements that are going to screw over the vast majority of their player pool
- They have, by far, the highest rake in the industry
- They charge for freaking timebank!!

This site is a complete joke.

The truth is, more and more states are going to start banning sweeps sites. ClubWPTGold knows this, and they are operating like it. Trying to suck as much out of the players as they can before they go out of business.

Sorry but anyone playing on this site is a sucker
