is the right place to ask this question, but its going here for now anyway. A local casino advertises they have the only "WPT poker tables" anywhere around. The question is, does this mean the host WPT tournaments, or is this just some sort of marketing ploy, kinda like saying they have highly trained dealers or something of the sort.

I have no idea and I doubt anyone here will either. You need to go straight to the source. Ask the poker room manager what they mean. I think it could be anything from hosting WPT tournaments to simply using WPT merchandise like cards and chips with their logo on them.

FWIW I found out it pretty much just means they host satellites. I was all excited for a minute.

wpt tables are electronic poker tables. you sat at a reg poker table with a screen in the middle where the flop comes. in front of you is a little screen that shows your hole cards and betting options. played on one at four winds in mich hope that helps

Since I wasn't told that, and that is also the casino in question, yes it does.

I honestly doubt I will go. There are plenty of places within driving distance of me that have plain old fashioned felt tables, which I are more comfortable to me.
