WPTGlobal Bomb Pots

The launch of WPT Global has been full of excitement with a number of unique innovations aimed at improving player experience.

The site, which features a range of both cash game and tournaments — including satellites to WPT Live events — isn't keeping it simple with either Texas Hold'em or Omaha. So read on to find out more!


Five Reasons Why WPT Global Isn't Like Other Real Money Poker Sites


What Are Bomb Pots?

A bomb pot is most commonly seen in live poker. It is where players at the table each agree to put an amount of money into the pot pre-flop, with action starting once all players have seen the flop.

A typical bomb-pot sees each player commit up to five times the big blind pre-flop. So in a $1/$2 game, each player would commit $10 and action would then start to the left of the button, on the player who would have been the small blind.

Often, players would agree to a "round of bomb pots" to ensure that everyone has the button at least once in this new dynamic.

There are often adjustments that need to be made in bomb pots, including betting aggressively with stronger holdings and expecting higher levels of variance with hands going nine-ways to a flop every hand.

Note: WPT Global is not available to customers in the United States or United Kingdom

And now, Bomb Pots have been brought to WPT Global! Players on WPT Global can easily find Bomb Pot games within the WPT Global client. Each game which has bomb pots enabled will see a bomb pot occur randomly approximately every 12 minutes.

The amount contributed per player is eight big blinds.
