Unfortunately, some European countries have decided to restrict gambling somehow. This results in WPT Global not being able to open its doors in crucial countries like the Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, or Switzerland.

However, poker-friendly European countries are welcome to play, including exciting markets like Finland, Ireland, Slovakia, and Slovenia.

Unfortunately, WPT Global doesn’t hold a Gambling Commission license; hence they don’t accept players from the United Kingdom. Nevertheless, the support team hinted to us they are working hard towards getting approval in this country, so we should expect good news soon.

When you open the client, something immediately draws your attention: the currency used at the tables is the Chinese yuan (CNY), not the United States Dollar (USD). This proves the Asian bias of the project. You can register from several Asian countries, including India (a massive market), Japan, or South Korea.

World Poker Tour already operates in the United States via other apps like ClubWPT. Most likely, WPT Global won’t operate in the United States due to the complex regulatory framework in the country: working in a fenced market doesn’t fit the “global” perspective of the new project.

We can call Latin America the second focus of WPT Global after Asia. The new room operates across almost all LatAm countries, with few exceptions like Colombia or Panama.

Expats-friendly countries like Costa Rica are welcome to play at the new site.
