Just realized something else: the rake for heads up (at least for limit) is waaay too much.  47 pot was raked 1 chip... for heads up that is a lot.

which is why it is hard to get a game going....

Yeah, we paid a lot of rake in that session. HU cap for limit games should probably be lowered, and it would be nice to have table starter rakeback.

Daily Prizes:
1. Top 5 players daily in minutes seated get an immediate rake back - 1st 25% 2nd 20% 3rd. 15% 4th. 10% 5th. 5%
2. Top 5 players in hands played get an immediate rake back - 1st 25% 2nd 20% 3rd. 15% 4th. 10% 5th. 5%

Do these stack? So if you get both you get both rewards, or just the highest? I think they should still be balanced by stakes somehow - some 2nl player is going to win hands played despite paying waaaay less rake than Xiao and I just did.

I just lost 300 chips in a heads up match that lasted pretty long... and my opponent barely won anything!

Something else that needs to be changed.  The newcomer should not get the button 1st... unfair to the player wiating for long time.  Makes it easy for button stealing against regs.

also be nice to see a "pot" button in nl instead of the all in button.

yeah the button thing sucks but you can just sit right next to the button so you can get it 1st for sure





Found a bug I believe:

When the table is made smaller... when you type in the chat... it does not allow you to type beyond the chat box. so i can only type a message that can fit the length of the chat box.

let me know if this is doing it for anyone else.

yup does the same for me.

i don't think you need a symbol for cash games just for tournaments so you can tell the difference between the shared and your tournaments

Also, it would be so nice to make some tournaments that don't last 4-8 hrs.... I agree the prize pool is nice for the amount of player entered/buyin... but it just takes WAY too long.  perhaps ask WPN to make blinds less than 15 min levels not sure

for no limit preflop--- it is very annoying when you are in the bb and ppl limp in and you want to raise... im sure u would agree notserp... if you know what i mean...

yup I only play the betcoin tourneys, I think I played the shared ones 2 time but there way to long like yesterday I played the 10k gtd and got 8th when my aa lost to kk king on river took over 6 hours to get to final table I just don't have that much time to play all in a row. mainly a cash player tho

Anyone have any thoughts on our symbol in front of cash games, tournament and sng buyins?  We are debating have the symbol, m and the symbol (which would be a more accurate representation, but more clutter possibly) or nothing at all.  Thank you in advance for your feedback. 

depending on how cluttered it would be which i don't know... but having nothing at all is okay for cash games, but might be confusing mixing with $ dollar tourneys...  having must a m or mu sign might be good too... so it doesnt look too cluttered... but btc symbol looks cool too but some newbies might be confused...

Some more things i see-- the 1/2 omaha h/l fixed limit ... the betting order is off.  What i mean is that it raises to 1.50 when it should be a raise to 1 preflop.

We tested it and it appeared to be accurate, however let's have a look at it when you get a chance online.  Thank you.

look at the bolded part... it should only raise to 1, not 1.5....

Hi, is anything being done about this?  Anyone that plays fixed limit can see here that the betting structure is incorrect preflop.  Thanks.

Hello yes, certainly.  This has been fixed.  Have you tried it recently?  Please confirm.  Thank you.

Yes I just logged out and logged back in.  Seems like the table has now been removed.









Hello, please check again as it appears the table name Nonthaburi was not properly updated, but you can see the table name in the thread and in the image are the same.  Check the table when you have a moment. 

Yes, I see it there now.  Will need someone to play me in order to test it out.

BTW could you guys add the follow 1 v 1 tables:

pl omaha h/l : 5c/10c , 10c/25c , 25c/50c, .5/1, 1/2

fixed limit omaha h/l : 1/2, 2/4 , .5/1

Do you guys have to pay to get a thread like Seals does?  http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/28/internet-poker/seals-clubs-bitcoin-poker-room-1248197/

I mean, that shouldn't cost $3k a month.

Correct, this will not cost $3K/month.  This thread is not an "official" thread for Seals and we would like to have a thread like this because it will be free and pretty powerful we believe.  It would probably be best if a disinterested party were to create the first post as was done for seals and then we could serve to answer questions from one of our accounts as well. 

i thought u had to pay to have a thread on 2+2

well someone started one go answer their questions  http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/28/internet-poker/betcoin-poker-1458531/

I don't think they can be official spokesperson.  We the players would have to do the work for them.  OH well.

Individuals can always create threads at 2+2 but they are not official threads.  We can comment on these threads.  Thank your for pointing this thread out and we will comment on it.  Please feel free to comment as well.
