Do you have plans to make a special tournament at this time? given that many people approach the gaming platforms looking for tournaments where they have special prizes for being in Xmas times ..

Sure we could probably do something special although we use the same tournament creation dialog as the players do so really anyone can make one.

There's quite a few tournament-specific features coming in Q1/Q2 that will make things even more interesting as well.

Avid professional player here for 15+ years. Very interested in streaming for you guys if we could work something out.

Doing something proper for Twitch streamers is something we have planned but although we don't have anything in place yet, you can get in touch with the team and we'll see what we can do.

Tournament re-entries are live. This gives players the option to re-join a tournament after being eliminated early.

Freeroll sponsors now have an opportunity to profit as each re-entry will go towards the prize pool just like a normal buy in.

I have been playing and playing on the platform, although if you accept a constructive criticism I would like you to take it into account. I will refer to Betcoinpoker, where an application is downloaded and there are always tournaments and where the winner takes some BTC, that is, prizes of 200 mBTC, 100 mBTC, there are always tournaments either paying or free, with respect to Blockchain Poker it would be very good that could make a graphical environment similar to that of betcoinpoker, since it is more friendly and attracts attention.

We think we know what you mean... the lobby list has been updated so more rows fit. Have a look and let us know if that's what you meant.

There's other list improvements coming later but probably not for a few months unless there's serious demand.

You can now make money by sponsoring tournaments. Profit sharing is now built into every custom tournament.



Tournaments can be created through the tournament dialog ("+" button).

We had a 1 BCH ($220) freeroll today.

You can view the results here: https://blockchain.poker?tournament=3819

Nice freeroll but too bad I missed it. Just checked the stats and there were 25 players only, so it was a good chance to win something for free. Is it regular freeroll or you run it randomly anytime you wish?
I think you would have more players if you announced it earlier (few days before starts). I suggest you to open a new thread for this kind of freeroll with nice prizepool on the Games and Rounds board so you will get more and more players but indeed you need to be ready for multiple accounts that may come on the freeroll.

This one was created and sponsored by a community member, not us. As of this month, anyone can create and sponsor their own tournaments.

Good idea making new threads on the Games+Rounds board for each, although we only require tournaments be created 15 minutes in advance for people who want to create and play one right away.

Of course, the first impressions of your resource are very positive, but it seems to me that a hundred satoshi as a bonus does not affect users very much.  In addition, you need to consider that poker players are a narrow circle of people, and therefore you need to introduce other types of games, which of course should attract more customers.

Actually those 100 satoshi's are affecting the game a lot.. in a negative way.

For the lowest 1/2 tables - I just test it and with a simple match figured it out that there isn't any means to play regularly but all-in every. And get another 100 satoshi's if I lose. This is corrupting the whole game and conception.
And everybody else is doing the same.


The option to play at 1/2 doesn't exist anywhere else on the internet so giving people that option is perfectly reasonable even if play is not at the same level as you'd expect at a higher level. It gives people who wouldn't otherwise play an opportunity to build their own bankrolls and play at proper stakes at a later time.

You'll find the play improves a lot even just going to 2/5 which is well within the reach of most players if they're willing to spend a few minutes to build up to the 500 chip minimum.

But giving people the option actually does bring in new people who wouldn't normally play, regardless of what other incentives they're provided with.

I think it is innovative that the tournaments themselves can be created, on social networks this type of event can be published to attract more people, the minimum required for participants how much is it?

Regards.

Minimum participants is 2, otherwise it gets refunded. Minimum guarantee is 1M chips (0.01 BTC/BCH/BSV).

You can now create your own sponsored tournaments with a prize guarantee.

There's a lot more that the team wants to do with this but the basics are in place.

I don't know if it was just me... but the first time when I visited the website it took too long to load!
The UI and design is clean and simple. This is usually a good thing but players might get bored after few rounds.
Maybe if you allow players to customize their profiles or choose from different templates it will make it more entertaining.

You did a great job so far tho.

Thanks for the feedback.

There's a public roadmap you can view within the menu (top right) that covers a lot of this. Custom themes, achievements/challenges/unlockables, visualized stat charts, on-chain social media integration, etc are all coming. The focus up to this point was to ensure the core components were completed before adding too many frills.

Also if you didn't know, you can already change your theme within the menu under "Settings".

I hate to type this, but you might think of adding a very basic bot or 2 for the 1/2 tables.
I have popped on now and then just to kill some time and been the only one there. So I left.
Not talking a lot of money for the site, but I did not stick around so you got nothing.
Had there been even one player I might have played a few hands.

-Dave

Hey Dave, getting the player count to a reasonable level is a priority for us over the next few months now that MTT is live.  We have a policy that prohibits bots due to the nature of the faucet as well as the fact that it doesn't really further our goals of growing bitcoin adoption.

The community is already growing at about 8%/month organically but we've got some things coming which will improve this substantially.
