Biography

Christoph Vogelsang is a German professional poker player who hails from Sassenberg, Munster, but who resides in London, United Kingdom.

Vogelsang began his online poker career in 2010, making several $10 deposits. The talented, analytical German built a substantial bankroll within only a few weeks and found himself playing $25/$50 against some of poker's best players. Vogelsang was known as "Tight-Man1" on the now-defunct Full Tilt Poker but now mostly grinds online at PokerStars, where he is known as "26071985," which is Vogelsang's birthdate.

Vogelsang had built a glowing reputation online before he stepped into the live poker tournament world. His first recorded cash on his Hendon Mob profile came in October 2013 when he finished third in the 50,000 Super High Roller at EPT London, a result that netted Vogelsang 383,200 ($621,321). Less than a year later, Vogelsang finished third in the $1,000,000 The Big One for One Drop at the 2014 World Series of Poker (WSOP) and walked away with $4,480,001 for his efforts.

A slew of stellar results followed before Vogelsang won his first major live event. He triumphed in the $300,000 buy-in Super High Roller Bowl in 2017 and scooped the $6,000,000 top prize, which is still his largest-ever haul.

By October 2023, Vogelsang has enjoyed a seven-figure score on eight occasions.

Vogelsang is known for his analytical style of play, one where he often ponders over decisions for much longer than a typical time. This often irks his opponents who do not take kindly to his recessive tanking. Vogelsang's slow pace ignited a debate at the 2022 World Series of Poker when he finished second to Dan Smith in the $25,000 No-Limit Hold'em Heads-Up Championship. Vogelsang regularly took several minutes over his decisions, leading to Scott Seiver accusing Vogelsang of angleshooting.

WPT Global Poker Games

1. What is a flight tournament?

A flight tournament has multiple qualifiers (or Day 1s), and the top X% (usually 10-20%) of each flight advance to the final day. When a flight reaches that percentage, it ends automatically, and the remaining players move to the final day (chips are carried over). Flights may also end based on level, time, or remaining players. Some flights may not award prizes, while others do. After all flights end, the final day starts as scheduled. You must buy in for each flight; direct entry to the final day is not allowed. You can enter multiple flights in the same tournament, but only your largest chip stack carries over if you qualify more than once.

2. What is a satellite tournament?

A satellite tournament is a tournament where you can win entry to a major tournament for a small buy-in. The entry fee is usually 10-20% of the major tournament. Multiple entries may be awarded depending on the number of participants. Example: In an $11 ($10+$1) satellite, one ticket to a $110 ($100+$10) tournament is awarded for every 11 players. Some satellites award generic tickets that can be used for any tournament with the same buy-in, not just a specific tournament.

3. What is a guaranteed tournament?

A guaranteed tournament is a tournament where a certain prize pool is guaranteed regardless of the number of players. If there are more players, the prize pool increases, but it will not fall below the guaranteed minimum. Example: In a $55 ($50+$5) tournament with a $2,000 guarantee, even with 22 players, $2,000 is paid out. With 63 players, $3,150 (63×$50) is paid out.

4. How do I use tournament tickets in my backpack?

To use a ticket, select a tournament with the same value as your ticket from the 'Tournaments' tab in the lobby and register.

5. Which hands are eligible for the cash game jackpot?

Each jackpot table displays the prize for each qualifying hand. Players must use both hole cards and have a winning hand to qualify for the cumulative jackpot.

Fairness and Security

1. What is WPT Global's fairness algorithm?

Our fairness algorithm is designed to ensure that all players have an equal chance of winning and to enhance the player experience. By limiting the number of skilled players at each table, we provide new players with a fair chance of winning. You will never be seated with eight pros at the same table and will mainly play against others of similar skill. Even for pros, limiting the number of other pros provides a better experience. Whether you are a new, recreational, or professional player, you will find your preferred game in one of the largest cash game player pools.

2. How does WPT Global ensure safety and reliability?

Our team consists of over 50 industry experts and former professional poker players. We use AI detection tools to monitor for bots, RTAs, collusion, and multi-accounting 24/7/365. Every security case is reviewed independently by at least two team members to ensure accurate and objective conclusions.
