Third party software isn’t allowed during play, but if someone can find a way to track their gameplay without doing that, there’s no violation. If you’d like to share the video I’m happy to check it.

In the future we will release something to allow players to track their own play more easily.

Do you still hide tables from winning regs? I played on WPT a year ago, and after 2-3 winning sessions, I was only able to see a maximum of one table with regs only in my lobby (while my friend with a fresh account could see 10+ tables). Your reasoning was that skilled players are not allowed to play with weaker ones.

Doubt Jackpot hands

Yesterday I was playing and one player get Jacpokt without showdown. Hi Q9 flop QQQ, every fold on flop.

Another player had Jd9d, River completed Straight Flush on River, but the other player fold on River (so no Showdon) but get price.

Rules
"Remember, you must use both hole cards to qualify, and the hand must go to showdown. Should your hand be good enough to trigger the bonus, with Quads, a Straight Flush or a Royal flush, the Jackpot will automatically drop and you’ll receive your extra winnings into your account."

Some decent overlays for players seen today, especially in the later events in the last couple of hours! The 2nd flight of the day for the $220 Warm Up Championships ($300K GTD) & the $22 Mini Warm Up Championships ($80K GTD) are still in late registration

Sundays also feature our $12,400 WPT Passport Qualifiers, with a $1,060 buy-in. Players who win a package get to choose from upcoming WPT events across the world, the last being the WPT Voyage a couple of weeks ago. 90 minutes late registration left in this week's event. Players can start their qualification process from $5 with many satellites & feeders running daily to Sunday's qualifier

Monday has a slightly smaller schedule for the Warm Up Festival, as expected:

The Ecology Management System is not based on whether you're a short-term winner or loser, it is based on your skill level. If you get categorised as a player with extremely high skill, then for most of our cash game types, only two seats at each table will be available to you. If both of those seats are full at a given table, then you won't be able to sit down. Of course you can always join a different table, or start a new table.

I've posted more info about this in the first post in this thread, and I also did an interview with the guys at Pokerfuse which went in-depth, if you're interested in learning more: https://pokerfuse.com/features/inter...tt-wpt-global/

QQ hand was on Saturday about to 13:40 UTC-3, Table NL4652 Blind 5/10/20 (2)

But what I'm really interested in knowing is if, yes or yes, my hand and my opponent's hand have to be show at the Showdown to collect the jackpot or am I misinterpreting the rules?

Tuesday is another light day in our 0% rake series with a mix of PKOs, Bounties, Short Deck and more!

Buy-ins are from $5.50 (Mini Bounty Builder $5,000 GTD & Mini Short Deck $1,500 GTD) and we might see some overlay in the $110 $25K (now $27,500) later in the day!

I'm investigating this to confirm 100%. It might be that the published rules are incorrect

I'd understand if you didn't want to play Pace in the meantime and can only apologise again for the misunderstanding here.
FYI, we are going to change this and from April 30th rake will NOT be taken preflop in Pace. Thanks for raising this.

Thanks, we're looking into it. We are running a hand history experiment at the moment with a very small group of testers, so that's the most likely explanation. But we will investigate and if anything unfair is going on we'll sort it.

I think that changed a few months ago, and before it was necessary to reach the Showdown, but now as seen in this other hand it seems that not.

Wednesday has a nice time for Europeans in Day 1 flights for our Championship & Mini Championship events





Feeders and satellites start a couple of hours before! You can qualify for the Day 2s multiple times, and you will start with the largest stack you get through with (the rest will be removed)

Just 3 days left in our Warm Up Festival and today we have one of our larger buy-ins, a $530 $30,000 GTD NLHE event. Deeper structure and Asia timezone friendly starting at 6:30am UTC-5. Feeders to it start in the next few minutes.

Our $22 Mini Warm Up Championship Day 2 starts at 10am UTC-5 tomorrow (Saturday 27th) and you have just 4 opportunities left to qualify for it, with 2 of them being today.




We have just announced our $7,000,000 guaranteed Spring Festival and I will post more specifics in the next couple of days. 5th - 26th May, lots of events each day. $1,000,000 guaranteed $3,500 WPT Championship, $750,000 guaranteed $1,060 WPT Prime as well as a $500,000 guaranteed $220 Festival Championship (and a $22 $150K GTD mini version)!!! Satellites & feeders start directly after the Warm Up Festival ends this Sunday, and we are doing 100% RAKEBACK on all festival events & related satellites/feeders!!! This will be paid out through a $100,000 series leaderboard, a $50,000 Champions of Champions freeroll, as well as 3 tiers of freerolls depending on how many events you play!

when it comes to the ecology management system, how many skill levels are there and what are they exactly, you mentionned extremely high skill level, how is this calculated?

is it a function of vpip/pfr or something?

It's a proprietary machine learning model that predicts the win rate of every player based on a multitude of information. It's constantly updating and very accurate after a surprisingly small number of hands (so it can't be gamed, for example, by taking over a weak player's account, or playing badly for a little while). I don't want to reveal every single detail, because this is actually a really hard problem to solve and its part of the 'secret sauce' that makes our games so good, but if you have further questions I'm happy to answer what I think is appropriate.

We are down to just 2 days left in our Warm Up Festival and there are only 2 more $22 Mini Warm Up Championship Day 1 flights remaining. A 6 minute turbo starts in ~2 hours, followed by a 3 minute hyper 2 hours after that. The $80,000 guarantee has been surpassed already!

Much later today, at 6pm UTC-5 is our $2,100 High Roller with a $200,000 guarantee. $220 & $530 feeders to this are scheduled, with a $220 BI 5 seat guarantee at 5:25pm UTC-5. There are $22 & $55 feeders to this running continually from about 10am

There are 5 more flights to the $220 Warm Up Championship ($300,00 GTD) with 3 of them running today. Feeders to these will run as usual!

Going to showdown is not required in order to win the jackpot and it is crucial that you utilize both of your hole cards.
