Pretty good decisions in favor of the players and i think these things will make poker tournaments more attractive. In recent years, live games have been very successful and with good marketing ideas, a large number of gamblers will be kept in every year.

Players are so motivated to play this WPT World Online series nowadays . Besides the many events with huge guarantees and for all buyins and bankrolls , there are also so many offers and promotions related to this series , so as to win exra cash . Also too many tickets for satellites or directly for the events can be won in freerolls or night poker league or with thw Hi Lo awarded tickets for the tournaments that awrd tickets , or the added sat tickets on the FTs of many tournaments . It's a real celebration for the poker world . Now also this $15,000 added value ticket to the next WPT Tournament of Champions , one more motivation to play these championship events that award this extra prize . This WPT online series is on a whole new level .

Mike Sexton can win many bigger or smaller games, but he was certainly impeled for which he was honored with a tournament who will bear his name. Was informed of this and then his concentration became much more important

These championship events seem to the pros very attractive and very nice to play , they have a big buyin but also it's just fine , cause the prizes are so high , $3M or even $10M !!! I couldn't play for these events , I try with satellites , but I am not good enough to have success and play on one event . directly I won't do it , cause I am not good and I am not optimistic for a cashout ITM , the players on these events are very good , some of the best worldwide , as these WPT online events attract the best players , the have great value , they are the best tourneys to play nowadays online and generally

These tournaments are very good to play, if you have money to register. Nothing is harder than WSOP from my point of view, because here is the cream of professional players and there are a few thousand in most games.

Big prizes , gifts , a real poker party and festival during this hot summer , ths WPT World Online Championship is the best series without any comparison with anyone else . Btw , the WSOP online series is not worthy of the WSOP name , I don't find it right that they award bracelets with these tourneys , some can play on Gg some not , some can play on WSOP online , some not , a farsa it is . And the prizepools , rediculous to the history of WSOP , the WPT online series has better prizes and chances to win big money , they have surpassed WSOP , really a shame .. Better invest your money on WPT online series events these days , rather than on WSOP , but if your bankrollis huge , you can play both I guess , if there is nt anything better for you . Again , this WSOP online series is for laughs , a shadow of the real WSOP festivalall the previous years , maybe they shouldn't have decided to run an play them online , take a break for this year and return next year live

I haven't followed evolution of the games and how many players have registered here but i guess they are not successful, if you say that. WPT World Online Championships could be much better but many players have no money because they have split into many poker rooms where there are not many satellites for these tournaments.

The WPT onlive evemts are great to play , extra value , cheap sat to get your ticket , even freerolls , or play on bwin casiono wager 5$ at least , get a ticket for a freeroll and win tickets . many other ways to get your ticket for a tournament . And many tickets free if you get ITM on some tourneys , and this extra gift for the ones who will win these very high buy in events , the ticket for the next WPT tournament of Champions . Great value , the best series this summer ,no comparison at all with anything else

Nothing compares with good tournaments arranged for players and they to be happy with rewards system. The WPT World Online Championships could be organized much better & would now be more successful, but they did something wrong and gamblers are not so many.

antonis you mean to play some freeroll or low buy in satellite and to get ticket for this big tournaments?dont think that anybody would have great chance for something like this and that will do it from just a freeroll,especially when so many people play this this kind of tournaments,but you can always try your luck!

You will notice that these tournaments run for a period of one month and three weeks. Here will be more time to think for players who want to play more games. I think it's good for them because that's exactly what professional players do.

dule vu , i was 1 place from getting the $110 ticket 6 max , but I lost J10s<44 5 max for 5 blinds me to BU he on BB I will see where I will use this $33 tticket , it expires after 40 days , lol , butt the $3.30 tickets last for 1 week only , lol . Played some $3.30 sats , no luck , I have one more$3.30 , gonna play today Hopefully I will be ITm , 100 seats guaranteed for $33 ticket This , if the ticket won't expire , lol .
i have seen that if a ticket expires on let's say 18:00 , but you register earlier than this for a tournament that starts some hours later , let's say on 23:30 (Night Poker League for ex) , the ticket is not fortefied , is still valid , it's not taken away from your account , now I have seen this for delay of some hours , but I do not beiev this hapens for games that start after many hours or 1 day and more. i take my chances , cause the sat in the night awarded only 25 tickets , not bad , but 100 seats is better , lol , my poker capabilities are not good , lol .
I should have played it on Wednesday, Thursday , cause Saturday and Sunday , even Fridays , have a lot of sharks , sh** ....

Antonis, i notice that you have a great desire to write. This is good. All we have to do is play and win, if we can... I would like the tournaments organized by them to offer other winning possibilities for young players. That's how i would like it.

This Series is almost a charity event , lol , giving away so much money , tickets , making many people wealthier , it's a real ''Party '' I had innumerable chances to get a ticket from second chance freerolls or Night poker League casino freerolls , or some sat tickets , but no . My mistakes are too many , patience throuout the game isnot enough , especially after bad beats , suckouts , loss of most stack . More patience early on the game or after a bad hand is needed very much , I have to master it Anyway , good luk everyone playing it , any event they choose , hopefully they 'll be on the FT for very big payday and crazy money
Yesterday 22 bigs in position with AA , saying if I shove noone calls , noone of the two limpers or SB or BB , let's raise x6 I think , one called , with 44s , set on the flop , lol , goodbye $33 ticket , I really want to **** this kind of players .....

The organizers do all sorts of things... to attract players but they don't think of a thing. Satellites for main tournaments must be launched 3 months in advance and this method will definitely gather more players than at the moment.

I agree that if sats are being offered 2-3 months in advance , also their promotions for tickets run at the same time , much earlier than the initial date for the series to start , that would be more benefitial for the site , and their series of tourneys . Also for the smaller bankroll guys , to seek more chances to get their ticket . An this applies to all series of tourneys from all poker rooms , it would be better imo

I can't wait to see a thread in bankrollmob when all tournaments end and how successful they were. There is a possibility that Party Poker will be lost money & that means organization of games did not go well. It's a little until September 8th when we will see.
I will see where I will use this $33 tticket , it expires after 40 days , lol , butt the $3.30 tickets last for 1 week only , lol
