The ultimate in video poker strategy tournaments. they say Hello,Thank you for contacting ZEN Customer Support.We are
unaware of any such tournaments. Videopoker.com is an affiliate of ours but we
do not run or control their website. Please contact them with your
inquiry.Thank you and have a wonderful day. Regards,Your ZEN
Entertainment Support Team any idea webman?

Which games were you inquiring about specifically? Would you mind sharing your initial inquiry that they responded to? I'm sure we can sort it out.

these games are listed on their home page, but they have no knowledge of these games.


I assume that by "listed on their home page" you refer to the Zen.com web site.  This information is clearly outdated.  I have been playing in their tournaments since Sept. 2010 and it was outdated then.
 
You cannot go to the Zen.com web site and join to play in the Video Poker Tournaments.  You have to join through an affiliate.  You do not play tournaments at the Zen.com web site.  You have to download software that connects directly to the Zen Gaming servers via your internet connection.

I play regularly in the cash prize tournaments hosted by Zen Gaming.  As a service to our members, I provide community-based tech support via a topic/thread posted on this forum.
 
Video Poker Forum : Video Poker : Video Poker Software   Topic: Zen Poker Room - Video Poker Tournaments
This topic is about the Video Poker tournaments in the VideoPoker.com poker room run by Zen Gaming at the Zen site.  The advertisement with the link is prominantly displayed on the home page when you log in here.  It is one of the rotating ads in the large window, the one with the poker tournament table.

 
The title of the topic is: "Zen Poker Room - Video Poker Tournaments".   It is contained on this forum in the "Video Poker" section in the "Video Poker Software" subsection.
 
Kindly refer to that posted topic.  It contains everything that you need to  know  to download the software and start playing in the tournaments.  Only play in the cash prize tournaments.  All the others except possibly the qualification tournaments are a waste of time and points.  If you have any questions or problems, post them in that topic and I will attempt to answer them.
