WPT Enterprises, which produces the popular televised World Poker Tour (WPT) coverage and licenses out the WPT brand yesterday announced the launch its new online poker site, WPTonline.com. Online poker is growing at exponential rates, with growth about five times that of the general online gambling industry. WPTE will try to use the success of its televised tournament program to capitalize on the online poker boom.
In efforts to avoid legal conflicts with the U.S. and other jurisdictions, which consider online wagering to be illegal, WPTE has restricted real money play for those jurisdictions. This is despite the fact that the Alderney Gambling Control Commission, which regulates WPTonline, allows companies to accept bets from the U.S.
The WPT online poker site features customized software developed by online gaming software developer WagerWorks. The software was tailored to give players an online poker experience with looks and feels like the WPT's popular televised tournament program.
The site offers a variety of game and tournament options, including multiplayer poker games, ring table games, Sit & Go and Multi-table Series tournaments. Aside from poker, WPTonline.com also provides a range of other online games, including Monopoly(TM), Blackjack, Roulette, Baywatch(TM), Bingo, Wheel of Fortune(TM) and The Price Is Right(TM).
