8 now including me and we have a new name registered. Looks like we are getting atleast 12 again this round

If we could average 15 players each game that would be a $300 pool every game. Only 3 spots get paid on 15 entrants, but it motivates players to win so they can finish in the money. Personally, I don't see how we have never averaged 30+ in every series??? We have millions of accounts registered on the forum and we average <15. Puzzles me. Maybe everyone is only here for a cash grab and there are no real gamblers?

Generally speaking poker is not really a game that everyone can play. You need basic knowledge on that and not to mention that half if not all the field that these potential newcomers are playing will be against us that pretty much know how to play already. Also time factor would be the other one, I guess most people arent really interested to spend hours of playing I guess

Well atleast this time we got decent number of new faces to join us so its great !

straateflu5h

I recall that straateflu5h wrote " fellow gosu " or something similar to Iv4n so probably someone from btcgosu

I heard a rumour Icopress its using black magic for his luck, its that true?.

It seems to me that you were the one waving your wand and uses all the magic spells lol  Tongue. I didnt remember much but by the time I was knocked out, you had around 1 BB or something while straateflu5h had more but then you ended up getting #2 spot which was amazing !

I am very late to this party, but since I'm in the evil usa and am prohibited from playing, I just want to say what a remarkable job both @cygan and @Betnomi have done here after finally catching up on this thread!  Grin

I wish I could play, but that is ok, I'm very happy/pleased to see Project Ic∧rus already making progress!  Cool

Thanks again to you both, and all of you players as well, I'm jealous! Tongue

What happen on season 6?

Well so the 17 participants for the other day it wasent so bad finally, and average start. Season one start was massive.

I hope to see more faces on Sunday. Today im encouraging in Betnomi chat guys to come and play.

Everybody refilled his luck?
Seemed like players didn't like the buggy software at the time among other issues that they may have experienced. We definitely lost lots of interest in that season.

7 of us registered already for this weekends tourney. Pretty solid being as this is only wednesday.

Disobey.
All the same, 6 minutes for level 1 is not enough. I did not have time to enjoy the game during these 2 hours.

In any case, it was a pleasure to see you all and I hope to see you next Sunday.  Cheesy

Congrats to our winner and the runner-ups.
Wasn't able to participate but trying my best next time.

Knockout bounties sound like a fun extra, but any kind of community tournament is appreachiated.

I am in... and this time from the basement! Only quiet place in the house...

...
10 minutes is a big PLUS! ... Turbo tournaments are all about luck because the often times the distributed hands are skewed in terms of winning probability before the flop.

I don't like turbo games, it's all about luck because we are forced to play faster and risk all-ins with any good cards... any pair is good in those moments. So 10 minutes sounds great, I guess this time we will play some "real poker".

mv1986, I don't mind at all, but perhaps this innovation should be applied to the next series?

Agree! As some others already stated let's finish what we started, with new series (I hope there will be new series) we can have some pool, and if the majority agrees we can play KO. I would vote for that.

I was informed that a new game has been added to the lobby. The password is the same (I successfully connected).

I also see that the time interval is increased to 10 minutes.  Wink

Looks good. Thanks a lot for the update @icopress.  Cool

Currently waiting for my BTC deposit and then ready to register for the 2nd event.

I am fine with any format. KO sounds fun too.

Are you trying to say my second position was pure luck Tongue , because you are right.

Jokes asides, i thinks we can have 20 usd + 5 for KO. Its little money and add so much fun i think, but lets see how this develop and what people thinks.

I already register in the tournament.

Ha! Nono, it's ok, I am playing poker for an eternity now! Tongue I know what to expect from probabilities. But short-time blind levels are increasing the luck factor by a lot. You can't just be patient and wait for some opportunity or position plays. Of course on another day it might be me who has the nice hands all the time while the blind levels are short. That's why I am all for the 10 minutes.

But again @darxiomi, I never said it was luck, in fact I am convinced it was only skill! Smiley

Whether luck, skill, short blind levels, it certainly was fun, that counts! Wink

I think if you guys decide to go with the PKO structure it will lower the amount of people paid out usually as well as I think it can only be 50% split. 50% of your buy in is bounty and 50% to prize pool. I do not think they can make it 25/75.

You could go with 75% / 25% KO and it would still be a little bit more exciting. But I am all ok with sticking to what we have for now. I am just saying that it's a lot of fun to have these on the edge situations where people have a hand they might call or fold, but then there is this bounty waiting.

But sure, let's go for now and hopefully we can get more people on board next time.

10 minutes is a big PLUS! My best hand last time was 66 and I only won with it because nobody else went for a bet. Turbo tournaments are all about luck because the often times the distributed hands are skewed in terms of winning probability before the flop.

@cygan would you be up to having a vote whether we should have a bounty per knockout implemented?

@icopress, would that be too much back and forth with your Betnomi contact or would it basically be possible?

But, anyone against the idea to have knockout bounties?
