I'll register in a while later guys, am not on my preferred device but please count me in anyway. IF for some reason I CANNOT join, then I will take the sidebet (but I'm not clear who are we betting on, just ourselves and if we outlast whomever we win?). My username there on SwC is "Sojourner".

Looking forward to playing with you @figment @SyGambler. Champion of the inaugural where I was first to bust IIR haha.

Make sure you're registered for the tourney before it starts if you're joining the last longer bet. Can't late reg and be included.

will play this one since most likely I will be sitting home doing nothing due to the current situation
gonna take me some time to recover my SWC account since I haven't played there long time ago , also count me in for the side bet as well

Thanks 

Also, i have a question: why technical pause on SwC is going so long? I remember in the last part of tournament (when two players left) it took 1.5 hour. What a sense for this?

Added you to the list!

Good to see you participating! Now thats one of the good things, no shopping with the ladies.

@efialtis
Made my SwC account, nickname is same as here. Trofo if you hate to look a bit to the left

@figmentofmyass
Thanks for organizing another tournament at SwC. This time I should be able to attend. Wife can't make me go shopping due to Corona virus lock down. Talk about silver lining...

All in the OP mate https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.53603452

I'm in.

But i have one question: Can anyone create a list with forum nicknames and their SwC alter ego, eh? Because for honest i don't even know who is who, it looked like i'm playing in random tournament, not like i'm at bitcointalk game 

I welcome the exploitation 
It's nice as I like letting people kind of pick through my play...which still has a long way to come. Helps me improve along the way. I will have to watch it again myself, but I think it was one of my better play days in a while.

The link figment sent should get you to one of the videos and you can find the other 3 on the channel. Won't help you this next tournament, gotta earn that paycheck lol. See you April 5th though if it works for everyone else. I'll do the same thing next time, but will make sure I'm better prepared. Might even do a little commentary...maybe.

guys I will join the tournament too
Same nickname as here on bitcointalk

@figmentofmyass Thanks for setting this one up, too, mate - I am "preparing" something for next week, stay tuned - lol, we are on fire, arent we? Like... playing every week?

Oh and I edited OP regarding username - anyone else participating, please hit me up with your usernames, thanks.

new game, new thread: MARCH 22: Bitcointalk Private Poker Tournament #4 @ SwC Poker. COME PLAY!

i'll be sending out the password shortly. for reference, this is the current PM list:


if you know anyone who might wanna play, feel free to invite them and share the password!


thanks, will do.

Thanks for confirming. You should message elfatis and have him change your name in the OP of this thread. It has you listed as FOMA888. Good luck all, i'm registering soon as pw is sent.

SwC set the game up---it can now be seen in the lobby. i think the rebuy was set up correctly: 1 rebuy allowed, rebuy period = 1.5 hours, and you can only rebuy if you have 1 chip or less.

i'll set up a new thread for the next game, announce the last longer bet in the OP, and send out the password today. should we continue posting the password in the thread a few hours before the game? sooner? outsiders registering is probably not a huge problem since it's not a freeroll or anything, not sure though.


lol, i'm actually FOMA777. funny coincidence though, FOMA888 is a throwaway account i made, which is why you were able to transfer money there. i was able to log in just now, so i have the 1000 chips.


i plan to watch before the next game you play. april 5th?


it's tough trying to meet in the middle between north america and asia players. @yahoo62278 and i would prefer a bit later, you and @rhomelmabini prefer a bit earlier.

this sunday's game is already set up, but we can open up the discussion for the next game.

nope, it was 12 minutes. i like to give late registering players a decent starting stack.


the best way is probably p2p transfer on SwC. that leaves a record of who paid. otherwise i should technically give each person in the bet a different BTC address, just in case of funny business.

pay to FOMA777.

yahoo62278 and i are both in for 0.001 BTC each.

Good luck with the game this weekend. I won't be around working nightshifts but hopefully I'll make the next one; I work the next 2 weekends.

Anyone who played my table last timearound can check out the videos I grabbed from my table perspective, I posted it in the tournament thread.

It's not my game, i'm just a player. Heck I was 2nd person out last game. I just like to add more excitement by having a side bet option between players who are interested. We get 5 players interested then that's an extra .005 to the winner.

You and elfatis have been doing all the organizing for these games so I will let you hold funds. I am going to transfer .001 to you now for my last longer bet. Would be easier to have the funds on SwC and transfer to the winner. If you're ok with this, confirm for all to send to you in the thread. If not you can send my .001 back to me.

1000 chips sent to FOMA888 from shipdachips, confirm when you're on thx.

Very nice. I am looking forward to the new tournament. Hope we will be many participants again. I will update the german thread in a few moments.   

LOL that's something you should ask to @yahoo62278 if he'll let you, the guy is really getting fire up he even ask for some side bets  . Hoping that kind of event does really happen but as you just said we should attract more and more people often every weekend before that come to reality.

Sidebets are of course optional, so are rebuy(s) - nobody is being forced. After all, we still want to attract as many fellow bitcointalk members as possible to play some poker.

My big vision is some big "Main Event" type of tournament by the end of the year... Would of course only happen if I manage to win one of the tournaments until then.

SwC or anywhere as long as not that strict, it will always be fine with me. Are you somehow from the Asia region? Well, if yes that's really a hassle and plus a hassle if you still got to work the morning after it because the tourney takes 2 or more hours. I have already suggested one just from the recent game to move it from 6 pm UTC to 4 pm UTC, that would be a consensus of the players if what's really fine for them but since the poll already started and the game is nearing I doubt it will still be changed and besides @foma already asked to set it up on SwC.

Sidebets will just be optional and not mandatory to players, right?
