Registration for WRGPT35 is closed.

To be notified when registration opens for the next tournament fill out the form here.

WRGPT is an email based poker tournament with no fees and no prizes.  Signups start each year in October.  The tourney starts in November and runs into June of the following year.

2025 - 2026 is the 35th year this tournament has been held.

WRGPT predates online poker.

WRGPT is run by unpaid volunteers on a virtual private server. It used to be in a garage in Cupertino, California, USA. Now it is on a virtual server in the cloud.

Since the entire tournament is run via email is is slow as compared to online poker sites. A single hand can take several days. Fast tables can do more than one hand per day but that is unusual.
