correct.

the blind structure is pretty slow too (3000 starting stack, 12 minute levels, 40/80/0 blinds after 1 hour of play) so you'll probably still have a healthy stack when you sit down. Wink

Sounds great, thanks. I might even be able to make it then.
Hopefully see you at the table!

If I register and am not able to be there at the beginning, I will be automatically placed at the table and the game will just be taking my blinds, right? I will not be kicked out due to inactivity?

Hey fellas, I think I'll be on the road but I might just get home in time. I'm returning from a weekend holiday on Sunday.

FYI for new SwC signups: BTCgrinders.com seems to have the best rakeback deal---15% better than anywhere else i've seen. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/btcgrinderscom-swc-poker-20-65-rakeback-existing-users-contact-us-4615373
I wish I have seen this thread when I am just about to sign-up there, I'm totally a noob to these kind of things.



I guess that will be no problem to all participants if it will be paid manually no issues on handling it @foma. I think we should wait for other players then we still have five days.

Only cause I feel bad I can't join, the first one was pretty cool if you ask me, and we should def make this more of a thing, though as I mentioned to figment, I actually probably will have even less time in the future...

Good luck everyone, and figment, do PM me to say where to send the funds. Is there a way to tip in SwC?

there is a p2p transfer function, yep. we can sort it out if/when we get 15+ people registered. there's just 2 of us for now! Tongue

SwC told me they can only directly add money to the prize pool if it's a freeroll, not sure why. so i planned on just manually paying people (either bitcoin or on SwC) afterwards.

Awesome figment thanks for that! I can't make it on this one though, as am away on Sunday evening BUT I'll be very happy to match figment's personal contribution (0.0025 btc) if you manage to get more than 15 players signed up.
Thanks for that @buwaytress that's generous of you.

I confirmed that I've received it and I already register on the table along with @FOMA. I just hope sooner or later we can see people registering. Good luck to all of us and let the rolling begins at 23rd.

the next bitcointalk forum tournament is now in the lobby at SwC POKER! https://swcpoker.eu/



"chips" at SwC = uBTC. so a 1000 chip buy-in = 0.001 BTC. they are not charging us a tournament fee, which is pretty sweet!

later today, i'm gonna load my account and register to make sure it's working right, then i will PM the password to everyone on this list: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.53845473

remember, SwC requires only an email address to create an account. no KYC, no banned jurisdictions. so everyone is welcome!

i am adding 0.0025 BTC to the prize pool manually. 1st place gets an extra 0.0015 BTC and 2nd place gets an extra 0.001 BTC.

if your SwC handle differs from your forum handle, please post your SwC handle in the thread so we know who's who!

please post your SwC handle in this thread prior to game time so there is no ambiguity about the winners!
Does it mean we will play the tourney at SwC or the things will be finalized once efialtis comes back? Anyways  I have no grudge on both casino as long as it will be wrapped up and we can play by the 23rd. My handle for both casino are the same K1R1T0.

As what I suggested before can't we have a telegram/discord group to converse things? I think that will be best alternative once a user wasn't online in the forum.

I'm going to follow this thread, but still I think it would be great if PMs were sent to the potential participants several hours before the tournament starts.

Can't wait for tournament to start! Good luck, everyone!

I thought we will play today, but next Sunday will be OK too. I don't have account on SwC, at least I think I don't have, maybe I played there years ago but I can't remember, I will have to check that. Count me in for the next week, good rules by the way, I like when blind levels are +10 minutes.

Edit: SwC username Iv4n, see you there in Sunday!

Great. As mentioned, I am not able to join on 23rd, but will be regular participant afterwards (if I don't rage quit at some point^^). If this is ok with you, I can update the Bitcointalk/Sportsbet/SwC handles in this post here, already added a column: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.53793470

I have enough funds, both on Sportsbet and SwC, to participate in a 0.001 buy-in tournament, and I'm okay with 18:00 UTC, so count me in. (My SwC Poker Name - Betwrong).

I'm going to follow this thread, but still I think it would be great if PMs were sent to the potential participants several hours before the tournament starts.

Can't wait for tournament to start! Good luck, everyone!

SwC got back to me. here are the tentative details:

Date: Sunday 2/23
Time: 18:00 UTC
Name: "Bitcointalk Forum Tournament #2"
Buy-in: 0.001 BTC = 100,000 chips
Late registration: 45 min

Starting stack: 3000 chips
Starting blinds: 10/20, antes begin at 50/100
Speed: 12 minute blind levels

hopefully people are okay with the non-turbo structure. i think it should make things interesting and will give latecomers a fair shot.

apparently they can't add extra money to the prize pool in non-freerolls. so i'm just gonna manually pay 0.0015 BTC to 1st place and 0.001 BTC to 2nd place. please post your SwC handle in this thread prior to game time so there is no ambiguity about the winners!

i'll update the thread when i have the password and the game is in the lobby.

I'd be fine with trying out SWC just to be sure we have a tourney and everyone gets more than a week to get prepped. I'll just have to see if i can access it through mobile.
It can be accessed through mobile and tried it few times and so far it turns out good.



Thanks for the heads up @figmentofmyass that was too diligent for you to really make this happens and to that prize pool. I'll be waiting what will be the outcomes and as well to efialtis if he comes back. Can't wait for a tourney with bitcointalk members. Grin
