World Poker Tour Creates New Online Club for Poker Enthusiasts

WPT Enterprises, Inc. has created and launched a subscription based online club, called CLUBWPT, that will give United States players a gaming platform that they may not have had access to in the past. The new website is conducting services under the sweepstakes rules in the United States and offers a subscription package for $19.95 a month. A player can also choose to pay in an annual or quarterly option.

With the package, players can enter into live poker, elimination blackjack tournaments, sit & gos and ring games. Players will receive points for participating in the games and could win over $100,000 in prizes and cash awarded each month. Players can also win shopping sprees, a flatscreen HD television, cruises, jewelry and the coveted $10,000 seat to a World Poker Tour main event.

Players who subscribe to the service will also receive a subscription to the All-In-Magazine, coupons for Las Vegas properties, etc. "We are leveraging the World Poker Tour brand and world poker tour website to create a user experience and poker community in an online space that delivers in ways never done before," said Ken Graiwer, vice president of WPT interactive. "Now, users can play WPT-style, study the industry's only poker statistics database, view streaming content and enhanced multimedia, access the latest information and much more-all on one site."

WPT Enterprises has also partnered with STATS LLC to create the first database for the poker industry to feature sports style breakdowns and analysis. The STATS group will gather the information from every final table hand played in the televised World Poker Tour events and use that information to compile a data base based on style of play, situational analysis, breakdowns, trends and other categories.
