Some bad news for Bryan Micon, SwC operator. Arrest warrant was issued against him.

Quote

Attorney General Adam Laxalt has scheduled a news conference today to give details of a case against Bryan Micon and his Bitcoin-fueled Seals with Clubs poker site, which was shut down Feb. 11.

An arrest warrant was issued against Micon in Las Vegas Justice Court on Monday on one count of operating an unlicensed interactive gaming system. The charge carries a penalty of up to 10 years in prison and a $50,000 fine.

Guess it's best for any poker site operator to stay anonymous...

I was away most of the weekend this week. Sad I couldn't join this tourney. I'll definitely get into the next one. Is it weekly on Sunday?

If you are talking about the 25mBTC Guaranteed. This tournament is daily. Information is in the OP.

I was talking about that. I guess I was totally confused. I was hanging around quite a bit last week during the week, I didn't notice that it was daily. I can be pretty obtuse, though. Anyway, thanks for the info, I'll jump into that 25 sometime in the next day or so.

Also, last week I had some fun success finding action in the micro stakes ring tables. Looks like this site is really starting to take off!

Hey tsp...
The last time I met you in the ring games, this daily GTD tourney was already there...even I said in the chatbox before I went off "see ya in the GTD tourney" Don't you remember? Grin

The last hourly freeroll was so long, more than an hour lol
finally we lose the chance to play 1 hourly freeroll (it should be started 10minutes ago) but now we need to wait 50minutes to the next freeroll.
But it doesn't matter...

Yeah that will happen sometimes.

Thanks. We are doing what we can.

Hopefully more players will hop on the micro ring game tables once they are done with playing in the 3mBTC hourly freeroll.

Would people like to see micro Sit & Go's?

It feels like SNG would only run well if there's a big pool of players, which is definitely not the case right now. Even a site like SwC would have trouble consistently running SNG tourneys.
Perhaps heads up SNG could run but it's not something I personally play.

Yes, filling S&Gs is the hardest part. Bu that being said, it wouldn't be a bad idea to create at least one heads-up and one 6-players S&G with low buy-in of around 1 chip. These will have a higher chance of happening than the ones with high buy-ins.

@BitcoinPoker.gg have you considered doing chip giveaway in games and rounds section? Even 1 chip per newly registered account will probably do. It's a good way to introduce more people to your site.

We have thought about doing this but it can easily be abused by players that use proxies to create multiple accounts.

At this time we will not be implementing a "sign up" bonus.

Thanks.

Yap, do not implement a sign-up bonus.
I have several options if you are interested :
1. Rakeback to any players who play in the ring games.
2. Loyalty bonus for your most active players (freeroll excluded

) you can make it weekly/bi-weekly or monthly.
3. Free entry in GTD Tourney. Example : players who already joined GTD Tourney 5x-10x get 1 free entry to the next GTD Tourney

Thanks for the suggestions. Much appreciated.

You can actually counter this by making special rules on it like the requirement of rake before it can be withdraw, although this can be abused as well, but you as the admin of the site can noticed some weird activities while user are playing on the ring games, so the chance to highly abuse this is low.

Quote from: meren on April 23, 2015, 11:42:34 AM

If you don't like freeloaders just remove the free rolls and the freeloaders will be gone.

Simple solution

The point is that freeroll attracts players that want to test the site,and it may create some long term players for buy-in tournaments

100% Correct If new sites don't have freerolls, why do players play in new sites? There are 2 biggest btc poker sites: betcoin and swcpoker, players can play there.

People play here because they have freerolls, when they see ring and gtd, they may also join them.

It seems that meren doesn't know how promotion and marketing is going, how to attract new players. If new poker site doesn't set freerolls, I am 100% sure it will be dead(no traffic and players) in a few days.

I think players prefer to see more GTD Tourney rather than Sit & Go Tourney.
How if you add higher buy-in GTD Tourney with higher prize?
Lets say 100-200mbtc GTD with 5-10mbtc buy-in.

Thanks for the recommendation. We will look into making more GTD tournaments available.
