Winning Poker Network has announced a completely redesigned tournament schedule that is going to be more consistent and consolidated. This new tournament schedule will begin on January 1st.
Winning Poker Network has been taking suggestions for months and making small tweaks to see what gets the best turnouts and has the most positive response from players on the forum and who participate in the tournaments. The new schedule is what they think is going to be the best for their players, but they have said that they will be more than willing to revisit things as players experience the new schedule.
- 54 tournaments on Sunday including a $200 + $15 Progressive Guarantee Sunday Tournament. Each week that the tournament hits its guarantee it will go up the next week by $5,000.
- 51 tournaments on the Monday through Friday Schedule that provide a little bit of everything no matter the buy-in level, or what part of the country, or world, that you live in.
- Introduction of a Turbo10, which are 10 tournaments ranging from $0.50 + $0.05 through $30 + $3 that run each weekday. They provide a healthy guaranteed prize pool every day for people of small and mid-stakes to compete for. They begin at the bottom of every hour starting at 2:30 PM ET.
- 8 tournaments Monday through Friday that have a buy-in of $50 + $5 or more. This includes a nightly $10,000 guaranteed and a nightly $15,000 guaranteed (except on Wednesday when it becomes a $25,000 guaranteed)
- Saturday features a 52 tournament schedule that is similar to Sunday’s with smaller guarantees, but just as much selection.
Overall the tournament schedule offers up a lot of selection and variety for tournament players. They have 4-max, 6-max and Full-ring tournaments which is rare for US friendly sites. Further, they offer No Limit Hold’em, Pot Limit Omaha and different varieties of Omaha 8 or better. Also, Winning Poker Network provide a great chance for high stakes players to get their fill of tournaments, as it has been a more neglected segment of the player pool in recent years. They manage to achieve this without ignoring the smaller players as well.
Some of the tournaments might seem a bit light on the guarantees to players at first, but it’s important to note that Winning Poker Network will take suggestions into consideration and will adjust things as needed. Also, if a segment of player is not being met under the current schedule they will tweak things based on feedback they receive from the community of players through live chat, twitter, Twitch.tv streams or on the forums they frequent.
If a high stakes tournament player has been looking for a site to call home since Black Friday, then Winning Poker Network might have solved that call with its revamped tournament schedule. Everyone else can find something that suits them as well though and there are always On-Demand tournaments popping off throughout the night, so even if you feel they are a bit light on the $5 and $10 tournaments that can be remedied pretty easily.
