The original big-time social poker site is getting ready to enter the modern-day sweepstakes arena.
The World Poker Tour, which launched Club WPT — a social poker site with a prize component — way back in 2008, is updating its approach and following the trend toward social gaming sites that allow something closer to real-money play by complying with sweepstakes law. This week, WPT announced the forthcoming ClubWPT Gold, which the operator describes as “a new online poker product operating on a sweepstakes-based platform, similar to ClubWPT, legally serving most of the U.S.”
Play on the site is expected to begin in early 2025.
