[ClubWPTGold] Unofficial Thread
time for a thread imo
Because they invested nothing into development and only care about rake. Duh.
If you ignore the e-mail will they eventually send it by paper (i.e. not giving consent for e-deliver)?
Illinois sent 65 cease and desist letters to sweestakes casinos including Global Poker, but not WPT Gold. Will WPT Gold continue to operate in Illinois?
Hi Ketamina. Did you find out anything on this? I had 2k that was considered Non Redeemable because I was not aware of the 9 day restriction and made that beyond the 9 days of minimal play testing out the site. Anyhow, per their verbiage as well as a specific comment in an email from them. They stated it will NOT be redeemable in the future.
So either I always have a 2K floor. Or via play through it becomes redeemable. I have played and added to it this month. However I have not hit the cashier yet. And I’m hoping to 0 out my account until next month.
The Indiana House just passed HB1052 that would ban some sweeps stuff online. It goes to the Senate next. Hoping WPT Gold and others find a work around.
These online poker sites need to start bribing politicians.
What do we want? Hyper turbo SNGs!
When do we want it? Rakeback!!

I've been playing with the "game days" toggle off - so none of my winnings are redeemable (which I don't really care about as I don't play for income - I'm just enjoying learning a new game and building a roll from the ground up).
From what I can tell so far - your unredeemable chips are put into play first when you buy in.
If you exceed the amount of unreedemable chips - redeemable chips are put in play.
What I can't quite figure out is if redeemable chips are replaced by unredeemable chips in real time.
Example:
I have $200
$100 are redeemable / $100 unredeemable
I open 2 PLO100 tables
I buy into table 1 with unredeemable - and table 2 is redeemable
If I close table 1 - will the redeemable chips on table two be replaced with the unredeemable?
Alternately:
What happens if I lose $50 on table 1 - and then win $50. Are the $50 redeemable chips I lost replaced with unredeemable chips? (I suspect yes)
I believe the converse of this is how redemption works. If I'm using a "game day" - and lose $50 unredeemable - and win $50 - those chips are now redeemable.
Btw - is PLO10 your primary game?
Can they just make up their minds on the size and structure of these Gold Million satellites?
8 handed? 6 handed?
Single table? or multi table?
Do winners have to play the next step up immediately? Or can they redeem their satellite ticket for a future tournament?
The answer to all of those questions is both yes and no depending on what time of day it is
Pick a damn lane WPT
Woke up today to find that all the Sit N Go Satellites for the gold million are gone.
I have $45 in tournament tickets for those games, but they no longer seem to exist.
I'm gonna give it some time. Maybe they just don't run the SNG's when there's low traffic on the site or something.
but this is weird.
Does anyone use the Hand Analyzer? Is it useful?
I’d say it is. There are some things that don’t make sense and don’t align with GTO wizard. I did a fairly deep dive into my hands over the weekend and my turn bet sizing was consistently too low. Our live games with a 5x straddle play short and I was carrying over live tendencies into online play. That alone was worth a few hours of looking through hands.
I would like to see some more SNG options. More stakes and formats.
I know everyone thinks SNGs are dead but there are dozens of players who like SNGs.
I saw a raise your edge YT vid that says PLO players on WPT Gold get rakeback?? Is that true?

I was wondering what clubwpt's sngg traffic was like. I'm mainly on Global poker and it is pretty dead after the $2 ones. Anything at $5 and above has a long wait time to fill up tables.
The 5 chip SNGs are being raked into oblivion. They are 4.5 + .5. Over 11% rake is wild on a turbo SNG.
At least give us rake back or a reach around.
If they are going to add rakeback for only one game type, it should absolutely be SNG instead of PLO. SNG is such a better game.

Gold won't add rakeback. They do the monthly thing with free credits and my guess is that is the closest they will come. They are the tightest company by far. I hope they surprise me but nearly every announcement or new feature is something the player gets to pay for (rabbit hunting, timer, etc). Its like part of their identity at this point.

I used to think that about Global poker too but they added rakeback and called it a vault.
The big thing is SNGs are always over raked. Rake back or just lower rake is necessary for people to turn a profit. Right now, they have a $5 turbo SNG that is over 11% rake at $4.5 + .50. Absolute trash rake trap.
