Topic: Betnomi Poker series discussion thread (Read 2887 times)

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5288276.new#new Series thread is up, have questions needing answered ASAP.

I agree with that. There are still some things that could be improved, but because of that promotion they have created a level of credibility for me.
You do not see such promotions to often.

In the beginning I was skeptical about Betnomi, a new site that made promises I thought couldn't deliver.
However, I have seen that they are running a really big free promotion and that the winner even gets 1 free bitcoin if you guess 15 results from the matches correctly.
That deserves my compliments and sympathy. Well done, Betnomi.

The possibility for the telephone is nice. I prefer to play poker on my computer instead of on a phone. Then you can see it just a bit better.
If you are bored of your own outdoors or if you are on location externally, it is easy on a cell phone.

Lol i did read it, i guess i missed that part

I will keep you in mind, as I can play it from my phone even if I'm indisposed. I'll say it now, feel free to PM me anytime you have something like this going on as a reminder/bump.  On that note seeing your thread I'll pop over now so i can follow along.

Please don't forget my Sunday league game.

I didn't want to spam these other topics with it but only 1 person made it from here and that's disappointing as I changed it to fit yo guys better. (I do appreciate the time doesn't work for everyone sorry)

This was week 1,




If it keeps going well I think there is a possibility we can get another timezone going in the series. Lets see.


Here is the thread, excuse my intrusion but this is our poker game also.

Thanks Betnomi for supporting the Private Poker series and keeping that alive and excuse me again.

Hey Yahoo,
in all respect to you and betnomi for making the freerolls possible (even though I got disconnected from the last one…), I would really appreciate when we start the series asap.
I miss the nice poker evenings with all you lads who are really interested in that series!
When you start the new thread tomorrow, let´s figure out the details and start on Sunday (hopefully).
Really excited to bring better performance than the last series 

I don't believe there will be anymore freerolls, least not the size of these 2. I could be wrong though, the owner is always pitching ideas to me.

I have spoken with efialtis and got permission to use any of the Literature and format from his tourney thread, so I'll be making the betnomi series thread within the next day or 2.

Most things are pretty much figured out, but all input will be considered before the series goes live.

I'll try to get the thread up tomorrow and get all the input we need ASAP so that we can try and start the series this weekend.

I missed the Sunday tourney and also missed Globb0's tourney too. Lately I am just having a roller coaster ride of scheduling myself in everything. Will there be another free tourney on the next Sunday?


I read through rest of the posts and I see we hav not reached any consensus. Let me put my vote

     Day of game : Sunday
    Start time of game : 17.00 or 18.00 hr UTC
    Number of games in the series: 8 qualifiers, 1 runner up and 1 final serious
    Buy-in: $10 to $15 (betnomi currency is dollar )
    Extra fee for pool weekly: Since there are no P2P let's ignore it. Or select one user, send him 0.001 BTC no matter if you play all qualifier matches or one, have him hold it and use it for the pool.

Let's not use any other platform like SWC for this tournament since Betnomi is the one who are sponsoring it.

nobody own my ass noob cheater i toldya you will be punished for using multi so you started accuse on chat before coming here to cry minus mind ...you fuck up my session and because of you from 1st place to zero profit so sfup bad cheater assume at least but don't cry and try to cheat again honest users ... ..the only scumbag here is you ....get a life or get lost ..ah sorry you are already lost  pardon
my condolences

The tourney was fun, this time i wasn't lucky, i couldn't get to the last table bug i had fun on it.

I would like to share some feedback because i have some connection issues on the tourney, and the users was complaining in the chat about the same problem. On the web console i see it was a socket connection issues. So, i hope the devs can work to fix this problem.

Well you start by reading the thread, then you find out the tourney is over.

How do you sign up for this tourney ?

I prefer playing on the client, I didn't really give the browser a fair shake, I prefer playing on a dedicated client anyways. I have noticed any disconnect on th eclient is fast to reload my table(s) though.
I did run into the same problem as you yesterday though, where I couldn't see the villains cards after a hand. Pretty sure it's following a live play rules, where in position they wouldn't have to display at showdown, if you table the winning hand and they muck.
I mentioned it in their main thread as that's annoying.
Shame but good catch.

Congrats to those that cashed I was out early 2 hands in I think. Turned trip A, and played it aggressive, definielt had the feeling they had flopped a set/turned boat and I was rewarded by being escorted out of the game lol.

I did make it into their big KO of the  day with a satellite ticket but, that got burned by my Boat being counterfeited on the river my 777AA VS their AAA55 - Fkn river lol.

My presidential bet having paid out that morning I rebought and ran up a large stack, but falling short of the money by 5 or 6 spots. Earned a couple bounties so not all bad.

Yesterday I read something like this in the chat:

Dealer: Hello FmBeT
Welcome to table Bitcointalk Freeroll

But I also read, but before I am going to mention this in fair play, do not misinterpret this information, on the contrary I bring it up because it is about poker and it refers to the series.

user: I am not planning to do the series

Likewise I am not going to place the user, the reason is that it seems to me and I appreciate the comment, because at least it lets know its intentions and that is the main reason for bringing it, because it is the feeling left by the intention of many, and the point here is the peak that perhaps many do not understand or do not want to understand ...

... these freerolls are not being done for you to earn money and disappear, in fact it serves as a practice so I took it yesterday and trying to win a position that may not allow me to enter ITM at that very moment it may be beneficial in the total of the games and as a consequence the zero in ITM can be converted thanks to one more place and perhaps thanks to those points to get the final table.

But also sometimes we enter the survival mode because sometimes, well, really, very rarely at the final table the shortstack can play its game with few chips ... in fact, if I had not tied the Noob color ... I would place myself with 90k but here we fall into " forecast" . Anyway, that's what this is about, playing poker, sharing.

+1 / no mouse, no click / good vibes.
Ty. / =
 

I missed yesterday freeroll but i will probably join the series if buy-in stays under ~20$

For the format, i'm more used to cash games so i prefer 100bb no ante but i don't really mind deeper stack.  


+1 need stronger sound/highlight when it's our turn to play

This happened on the first freeroll as well but probably because the freeroll supposed to be $250 instead of $296.88 but for some reason it shows up as $296.88. I got 1st spot on the first freeroll and instead of $133 , I got $112.5 and I got $62.5 as 2nd rank yesterday

If you add it up then it will be a total of $250 . So 1st get $112.5 , 2nd gets $62.5, 3rd gets $43.75 and 4th should gets $31.25 .

So it seems there is a p2p transfer feature on betnomi now but I havent really try it yet , atleast this give us a way to continue the series with those extra fees for lotteries and extra prizes for the Grand Finale

Been a pleasure playing this freeroll, pleasant environment, amusing chat and also nice poker played that is a rare thing in a freeroll.

Don't know if it was my connection or if was a general issue yesterday as well but got disconnected multiple times but despite this managed to grab third spot with some lucky hands to be honest.

There are some issues to be fixed imo ( playing on browser versin btw):
 - add please a fastener button to hand replayer it's way too slow : also it doesn't display oppo hands even if we went to show down
 - also close replayer button (top right X) doesn't work
 - as already said multiple times, allow player to stay at the table after busting out to say something in chat (not a big deal but not nice).

A question for players who got ITM in this and previous tourney : third spot I reached had a displayed prize of $ 51.95 but I only got credited $ 43.75. Anyone else ecperienced similar discrepancy?

Why do you suspect they are alt accounts?
