Hi everyone, I just created a new account here to learn more about bitcoin. I also like to play poker and I'm wondering if there are any good and trustworthy online bitcoin poker room out there? Thank you in advance!  Smiley

Welcome to the forum. It's a great place if you are interested in crypto currencies and gambling. If you are looking for a full crypto poker room I can recommend you SwC Poker. It is not a big casino but there are always players around looking for a poker game. In case you want to play a particular limit table and there is nobody playing right now, you can just sit down at the table and wait for 1-2 people to show up.
Alternatively almost all of the big casinos all you to withdraw money in cryptos. I also play on GG Poker for some time now, they have great deposit bonuses and money can be withdrawn quickly in bitcoins.
Well you have mentioned those reputable gambling poker casinos that commonly I used to. It is better to have all accounts of them and visit which one has many players online because sometimes there are poker rooms that don't have players, you need to wait further time before there is a player. If you have other accounts on different gambling casinos, you can find which of them or which room that is good to enter.
However, if you also play poker that is against the house edge perhaps that is an interesting game that is also based on luck. Just try it.

Nothing wrong with trying a new casino from time to time, however the problem I see most of the time is that instead of being cautious and just deposit a small amount of money on their wallets and see if they like the games and the promos the casino offers, many newbies deposit a lot of money on their accounts, and while this is not a problem with honest casinos we also know there are some casinos out there that are managed by dishonest owners which will keep that amount of money and scam the customer, and even if the community does its best to warn users which are part of the community and other people looking at their posts about this, there is nothing they can do to recover the money which was stolen.

yes, most of the users are not that cautious when trying out new things and this is quite important
even online security is quite underestimated for new users, like the basic, not using the same email + passwords, etc...
we have a long way to go.

agree with you about not being a problem to try out new casinos but people should always be careful about their information and data
What happens is that people still do not understand that bitcoin and the fiat system are completely different in nature, people are so used to the protection that banks give them that they are not careful with the way they conduct themselves online and the transactions they make, so when if they make a mistake and get scammed with their fiat then the bank can enter the stage and recover that money for them, but this is not possible in this market and many do not realize until it is too late this difference, but by that time there is nothing that can be done to recover the money they lost.

probably crypto-only websites are way more niche than the big ones like everest and pokerstars, right?

of course not  Grin More like vice versa: crypto poker rooms are very close to hear something like "omae wa mou shindeiru" (c), he he.
In the same time, pokerstars (i don't know about everest) is in 100 times bigger and have a lot of stuff to do. This is not funny, rather sad that poker on crypto is not so famous as on offline.

haha had to google this reference since I don't speak japanese (and I haven't heard of it before even though it's famous)

did some research and seems like everest has around 4k players everyday and Pokerstars, 15k, not so huge difference

<...>
People nowadays once they saw someone earning with the gambling platform they are trying to convince themselves to make a gambling play too. Still it is more ideal to check the reputation of the gambling platform because to be part of them its better to see the review of other people even though its just a small amount its better to make sure that you're credentials and assets are safe to their platform.

so, nothing new under the sun
people are more interested in shortcuts to make fast money than in doing research and getting rich slowly
seems like it is like that for decades now, right?
In "the richest man in Babylon" written before Christ there were some warns about that already.

Newbie's are very well welcome to the forum and it's definitely a good decision to join in the forum to get a legit information regarding crypto discussion or even gambling and likes. With a lot of phishing sites and not legit sites that circulating all over the internet it would be hard to find which link are good to open or not. In terms of crypto poker room I would also recommend SWC poker too it is my favorite poker site and it is a bitcoin-only website that's mean you can only use bitcoin to play with it.

You are right, I have met some people who are new to the forum but have great experience in gambling, some are real life players in traditional casinos, and they bring their experience to online gambling, especially for poker each person has his own style, based on experience I think his game is much more efficient and if it is totally applicable to crypto.
  I have read some books about poker, and I have also played with people who had never read or anything, but have a vast knowledge, I think it is also a matter of talent.

I immadietely thought of a good gambling room when you asked that. there are some good ones but I like SwC poker the most and I think many also like this gambling room. it's the first room I know in doing gambling and I think it's pretty good. some people have suggested you a good gambling room, you can choose it. My advice is to choose one that is safe and reliable and makes it easier for us to do gambling so that we are also calm in doing it.

In regards to this, people’s desire to win and acquire money instantly is what drives them to jump right in without even considering these things that have been repeatedly mentioned like reputation and credentials of the casino and its management. It is undeniably the newbies who are being caught up in such situation, and maybe only through experiencing the unfortunate by themselves will they realise and learn their mistakes and misconceptions when it comes to gambling. It is just too bad to learn the hard way, so I hope newbies will be more curios and cautious on what must be done.

Well, when will we finally get the tournament together? and most importantly on which platform? I could think about looking for sponsors, but in this case, you need to consider a completely neutral playing field.

I would propose PokerTON, it has pretty good poker rooms, but in the same time it accept only TON (Everscale) and have some problems with withdraws. So i doubt that we find needed platform.

So i think the next tournament will be like... never  Grin

I could think about looking for sponsors, but in this case, you need to consider a completely neutral playing field. By the way ... just think! The first tournament was organized long before Laszlo paid 10,000 bitcoins for two pizzas, and if I'm not mistaken, this poker tournament took place even before the community accepted the Thai baht as the official bitcoin symbol.  Cheesy

The "Worlds First Sudo-Anonymous Online Poker Tourament" was played with much success. [...] Total Prize Pool 1200 bitcoins (4 'real' players)

1st - dwdollar - 600 BTC
2nd - theymos - 325 BTC
3rd - BitcoinFX - 175 BTC

Now in this pandemic situation, I don't feel like going to casinos because I'm already used to playing online casinos, and it's just as enjoyable. Virtual gambling establishments are a great alternative to land-based clubs. The rapid development of online gambling is the result of technological advances and the widespread prohibition of gambling. And besides, no matter where you are, at any time, you can get together with your friends and play on the Real Money Online Casinos. I play in the casino because we play slot machines or roulette when we get tired of playing poker. The variety of games is excellent.

To tell the truth, you may be promoting the site or not, but I would go for the safest casinos, which have an excellent reputation and I know that they would respond to possible problems that may arise, I know many friends who have tried their luck In online casinos that are not so well known and have ended up scammed, I am not saying that the site is a scammer, but for poker I like the version that stake.com has a lot, especially video poker, of course at stake.com you get variety of games that are introducing new ones every time

That is what members will do to prevent scams that can happen at any time.
They will more prefer to play safety with the casino that has excellent reputations instead of trying or testing the new sites with small or big money because that will not guarantee them have a good experience.
But if some people still want to test the new site because they are curious, that will be up to them but they need to be responsible with their money.

There are always high expectations regarding new sites, especially if the new sites offer PVP game, I particularly like playing poker that way much more, and I think that most players are waiting to see how they work. new sites, how trustworthy your platform can be and is it worth the risk of the deposit.

In any case, as they have said previously, the sites that have already been reviewed and are safe by confirmation of the forum members are the most reliable.

everest poker had a similar system where you could join a free tournament and win a small prize like 2-10 usd, then you could join the next tier on the tournaments like 2-5 usd entry and win a bigger prize, maybe 2x-10x the entry amount,
I've heard of people who build up from there and now live off playing poker only

would be interesting to see that with crypto options as well

Every poker site has this feature (freerolls). The main problem is if the site doesn't have much players to play. So there will be not much sense in freerolls, because tiers above (with bigger buy in) will be empty or close to it. This what is SwC looks like now (and semi-empty cash tables)

makes sense
would be interesting to see a comparison of amount of players on poker sites
probably crypto-only websites are way more niche than the big ones like everest and pokerstars, right?

Bitcoin is GOD
November 26, 2021, 01:21:31 PM
Really?

I haven't been following the BTC poker scene for a while, so I would have thought that SwC would still be the best alternative out of everyone here.

I wouldn't be comfortable with using NitrogenPoker either for the issues that they had... And Bovada has recently announced the end of mBTC denominations. This is a sticky situation indeed.

Yep man, SwC is almost dead (at least if we compare it with the times like 1 year ago). So for now the best poker rooms is pokerstars net, but here we have one problem: it doesn't accept Bitcoin  Sad

Whatever, you can try it by yourself, maybe amount of people which still their will be enough for you

It is a proof that fiat based poker site is still popular compared to crypto poker sites. Here in my country, there are many poker players who play in various sites and the number of active players is much more better than what I can see in SWC. I'm not really sure why, I have no idea why the traffic of crypto poker sites is not able to increase or at least compete with fiat poker site.
This is one of the things I have wondered for a long time, the gambling industry is incredibly successful in this market and we know this is true as there are many casinos that are incredibly popular and that are getting a lot of profits.

However poker has not gained the popularity that I have been expecting, maybe it is because poker it is not as popular as it was back then when it began to be aired with regularity on sport networks, or maybe the kind of people that is attracted to the world of cryptocurrencies do not have too much of a preference for a game like poker, but whatever the case, something is happening that is limiting the growth of poker as a popular game in the market of cryptocurrencies.

ChipStars is a nice place for poker, rather relaxing.

Their payout as far as I tried and know of is on time and never had any issues. At the beginning they used to advertise for free where people could join the rooms for free and get the reward, it might have changed slightly now but still something to check out for sure Wink
