Bots are target dummies for exploitative strategy. Wink

Yes, the bots we have are very, very weak. But it is what it is. What they lose would not be enough to pay house-players.

If we get GTD MTT's or high rakeback promotions (though the current rake is low enough that most would play) that would probably interest some. The main problem that I'm having right now is with the overall look of the site. It's plain and looks pulled from some template.

Have you looked at our affiliate program? It is very easy to use, intuitive and it pays 30%. On top of that all, you can cash it in any time.
As far as the design goes, we got a lot of compliments from a lot of people so we don't foresee changing it in the near future.

Plus, the poker software is fairly inexpensive (considering gambling perspective).

The software itself is fairly cheap indeed. It's incorporating it into a working website - deposits, cashouts etc that is quite expensive.

And please support lower-resolution windows! I'm on PC but I like to half-window it. (1980 resolution here)

I will talk to our IT guy about this if we get more requests. No offence, but we can't do major design changes because one person wants it

In other news... I really would like to see some stud on here. I enjoy it a good deal (not as much as NLHE) and the other sites don't really have that big of a player base for it [none]. It wouldn't cost you anything to just stick it out there.

I have to agree that playing against bot is easier but it is not fun at all, at least for me. I have been playing online poker for around 10years and I believe the game will be more enjoyable if all players are real, not bots. I do prefer to not playing if I know there are bots on the table where I play. Poker players are not only trying to win as many as they can but they are also looking for fun game IMO.
In short, playing against bots = boring.

I can only agree with you, but unfortunately that is the reality of new poker sites - it is almost impossible to start games without bots. We will eliminate bots eventually, but at the moment it is just impossible to have games going 24/7 without the help of the bots. We don't like it either - it is not fun for the players and the bots are costing us money. The bots have collectively lost over 0.5 BTC since we started and they're only playing 5/10 and 10/20.

With the current standard, you won't get tournament players at all (unless it's colluders vs. real players) and you'll be looking at mainly the microstake players in ring games.

That's an inevitability with new poker sites (esp. bitcoin-only)

1. Do you have a list of prohibited jurisdictions? Do you plan to introduce such list in the future?
2. How do you check for collusion?
3. Do you store hands histories? Is to possible to request them/download them for inspection?

Rake looks nice

Thanks for you interest in our website. Let me answer the best I can:

1. At the moment we allow players from all over the world to register and play at our tables. This could change in the future should we feel pressure from certain institutions and regulatory bodies. We don't want to break any laws or step on anyone's toes.

2. We don't and we can't. We are a small poker site with with low budget and we can't hire top programmers to write code and try to catch colluders. That being said, in our opinion colluding is VERY overrated and to do it right and undetected (by other players) one has to put in a lot of energy and a lot time. In other words most of the time it does not work and it is not worth it. Especially not at micro levels.

3. We don't store hand histories as such, but the software we use (Mavens Poker) stores hand histories as long as you don't close the table. Go to Menu -> Hand Histories and it is all there

I hope this helps. Let us know should you have more questions.

I believe this site is nice to gamble from time to time. The design is bright and it is easy to understand how to do this or that thing. It is just paving its way to success.
I have seen people saying it is bad there aren't many human players here, for most are bots, but hey, isn't it great that you are one of the first people trying out this website? I believe it's easier to win playing with bot than human. So good luck to all of you, guys and gals!

Ok it is pretty much to understand now. But dont you feel it is much easier? Because I am calculating it here, 0.08 per 1 chip to pay in rake back so that means to get 100 points there is only need 1,250 chip of rake back in total and you already get 1000 chip for free so this is somehow doable right? Correct me if I wrong about the calculation here

Well, the idea behind the free chips is not just to give money away for free but to generate traffic, as you can imagine

True, to be able to cashout your bonus chips you need to pay 1,250 chips in rake. In our opinion about 40% of the players who received free chips will manage to collect enough bonus points (100ptc) before they run out of chips.

So far we've given away almost 200K in free chips and if you do the math about 80 players will collect enough bonus points and cashout if they decide to do so.

IMPORTANT: there are no cashout restrictions WHATSOEVER when you deposit btc to your account. Players can cashout these chips and the chips they win ANY TIME

Yeah, for now to generate traffic by doing this thing is really good. 0.001 btc for every starter will be good enough. More over the roll over is only 100 point which is really easy to make by using 0.001 btc=1000 point. This is really good and potential poker site after long period of time. Hope this site will hold forever. Btw i just register on your site and send email to get some bonus, hope i can get it ASAP

Poker won't be my option ever due to the fear of loosing my bitcoins. I use to do betting only via gambling.
If you are good in smashing the cards to gather JKQ and all rummy very fast, you can win else you will fail. If I have deep knowledge about it atleast I may go for it.

Look ARROUND!

I played and of course I lost. What I found interesting is that 3 hands consecutively there were the same cards on my hand and on the table.

Second i must admit it is not so hard to do the bonus points.

You really must to improve your client.

I just signed up at btckings.com and the email confirmation i have received but, i did not see it was an email confirmation. I just saw an email with a welcome note and included a bitcoin deposit address.
Is this normal or should i wait a few more minutes to receive a confirmation email?

Check your spam box, one user already reported similar problem, the confirmation email was in their spam box.

8 days left until the end of this promotion:

That is weird. We've had that a couple of months ago when we purchased the site and the IT guy fixed it. We never had that problem since. I will text and ask him about it.

few players playing during the day, rest of them are bots.....indeed terrible players but lucky as fuck Cheesy

wanted to ask if i make deposit do i still need to collect 100 points before cashout?

And one more thing.....points are not awarded correctly.... for 5000+ chips all in bot called 5000.... thats 10k in pot ........2% equals 200 chips.... i should get 8 points since i contributed 100 chips to the rake....however i got only one.......and that happened every time...i should had over 200 points at the moment.......

Yes, let me confirm officially: no play requirements whatsoever for real money deposits. These you can cashout at any time.

About your second question: I just checked - you've paid 706 chips in rake so far (and contributed 975 chips - we use the actual rake paid). That should give you about 60 bonus points. I am not sure if there's a delay when awarding bonus points, but believe me guys nobody is going to steal your bonus points away from you.

I've tried three different browsers. no luck... nor does it work on my phone.
