Update on Winning Poker Software Upgrades

This past Wednesday saw the Winning Poker Network unveil their new, long-sought software upgrades - and while the final verdict on the overall improvements will take some time to work its way to the surface, players have offered their reactions based on their gameplay experience over the past few days.

The consensus opinion on the new look of the software has been positive - however, many feel that the changes in an overall sense were mostly cosmetic. Before the upgrades, the software reminded some of the way poker rooms looked and felt around the year 2000, with basic-looking tournament schedules, sluggish gameplay, and simple graphics being take aways - especially when compared to other rooms and networks. While some of that "old-school" feel remains, some are comparing the new look to that of Full Tilt Poker - if in design and gameplay moreso than in some aspects of function.

The most discussed aspect that seems to have been left for future updates/integration is the inability to have more than one tournament lobby open at any time - a mild annoyance to some, more particularly to those multi-tabling many tournaments/SNG's at a time. There has been no clear answer as to if/when this may be addressed in future upgrades or updates, but we will continue to monitor this and bring you the latest as it happens.

Overall, in conjunction with WPN's ability to pay players in a timely manner and their solid customer service, the new upgrades will likely increase traffic to the network over the next few weeks. More players in the fold means better opportunities for regular cash game, SNG, and tournament players - and presents the possibility of more MTT's with better overall guarantees. So all in all, the new software is at least a big step in the right direction and WPN continues to present players with one of the more safe, secure, and solid experiences in the current online poker world.
