Also, i've lost because i don't use great chance to win: after @BitcoinGirl.Club started to bet all-in, i got hand with two jacks (already one pair at hand) and don't supported his bet :c

Well I had not much clue in that match but the time has changed now. I am more into this game and I believe I made good improvement knowing when to do what. I have been trying to play it since then in a Facebook app and now I am as good as the opponents in the table.

I could not join today's one since the app was not loading in my browser but in the SWC poker I am in and this time I will have good run. Watch for me 😋

I'm okay with the faster blinds in fact I want it since I am always playing late over than anyone on the tourney, even 5 seconds will work.

~3.5 hours. someone suggested speeding up the structure a bit, so the games will go quicker. i'm not sure how everyone feels about that. let us know what you think

I think due to the fact that most players are still sorta learning the game, the blinds going faster would work against them. I'm ok with the current levels or faster levels, but I don't want others not joining due to fear of having to play too fast.

Yes, you are absolutely right, the rules for the BBJ are tighter, normally. But I intentionally made it easier to qualify for the prize, because otherwise it could take like 20 years until it happened in our tournament.

true, at any single 2-3 table tournament, the odds are quite low. quads > full house is okay.

Quote from: Betwrong on March 23, 2020, 04:11:35 AM

In my opinion, we don't need escrow for that. But I'm open to suggestions.

i think we can be trusted for 0.0025 BTC each. it's not worth escrowing because it could be weeks or months before the BBJ gets hit.

yahoo62278 limped preflop, so i shoved AQs. he called with J9s. i'm out in 4th! at least i made it ITM.

it was over quick once we were ITM. Iv4n took 3rd and Betwrong took 2nd.

yahoo62278 won the tourney and obviously also the last longer, well done! 0.005 BTC coming your way via SwC transfer soon. please confirm once received!

Ahah, that was nice. I also had full house one time, but not so epic (i don't remember exact cards, that's bad) and was fun to see how guys increased bets Cheesy

Also, i've lost because i don't use great chance to win: after @BitcoinGirl.Club started to bet all-in, i got hand with two jacks (already one pair at hand) and don't supported his bet :c

But for example with yahooo i won with a hand of two "tens"

P.S: yep, of course congratulations for yahoo62278!

When creating a thread for the next tournament, please include the rules in the OP, I'm going to hold it for the next game too. Also, others are welcome to join in. If 0.0025 BTC isn't big enough to make it attractive, we together can make it 0.01 BTC or higher, can't we?

i think full house beaten by four of a kind is a bit loose. iirc, most online BBJ require beaten quads to qualify. if full house qualifies, it should be minimum AAATT+. what do you think? https://www.pokerlistings.com/strategy/general-poker/the-truth-about-bad-beat-jackpots

It's like mining difficulty, in a way: the more active miners around, the higher it is. If the number of miners drops, the difficulty drops as well.

If the number of participants in our tournament rises to many hundreds, we can always make an adjustment.

I don't know about others, but I was playing at the top of my abilities. I almost fainted when the game was over. But what a game it was!

That's not how it is done. You should treat it as a relaxing thing not a chore. I make myself a nice cocktail or stock a fridge full of beers and then it is enjoyment time. As soon as my ass started hurting from that much sitting I went in high risk game and lost soon after that. But that is what works for me. Stakes weren't big and I got almost 3 hours of good fun out of it.

I'll be participating in all tournaments while this Corona lock down lasts so weekly tournaments would suit me just fine. Just need to get chat working before next one. Have to use the time before life gets to normal.

I know efialtis had something planned/arranged with Sportsbet for next week. He is among those users, that were banned 7 days for that Tron giveaway, so maybe you could get in contact with him via Telegram, before you set up the next tournament on SwC. You can find his TG handle in his profile here.

tbh i don't have telegram. can anyone reach out? will he be back before the weekend?

Is there a way to somehow make the timeouts faster? Like 10 seconds should be more than enough;)

i'm not sure. probably not, but maybe we could speed up the blind levels by a couple minutes. i'm partial to slower structures because turbos usually turn into donk shove fests, but i'll go with what the crowd wants.

Congratulations to everyone who made it far esp to yahoo for winning! I entered late, but anyway realized very soon that I would not be able to play for long so I went all-in a few times in a stretch. Totalled out 2 players before I got totalled out myself, so it was sort of interesting to see.

In case you, guys, wondering, here's the result of the final showdown:

What I can't understand now is why did we, both of us, decide to play with such pocket cards, in the first place?

Anyways, it was a great game! Thanks, everyone, for participating!

I think it's just good at SwC nothing much to do on sign-ups and they really have great table besides there are already 3 tourneys held there and not much of an issues. By the way, congratulations for the win @shipdschips.

Looks like it was a solid tournament all around. Disappointed I couldn't get in on this one but, I'll be there next time.
I almost let my inner degen out and set an alarm for 4 hours after bedtime this morning... thought the better of it. Seeing how long it ran probably for the best... probably Grin

I did however finally play an hour of micro cash games to earn my krill and my next buy-in... micro staked crusher lol

I can't chat yet either and I must also earn krill first. I don't think we can deactivate it. Cry

you only need 1 krill to be able to chat. our private tourneys are rake free though, so you won't get any krill by playing them. you could sit at the smallest micro stakes for ~30 minutes and earn at least that much.

no way to deactivate the requirement unfortunately.

Ok, thanks. I'm gonna take care of it this week. I think next time I can chat too.

What is the rule about buyback regarding our last longer side bet. Does the buyback count or you are out when initial stakes run out?

I would assume that as long as you were in the tourney when it started, both buyins count towards the last longer bet if you use them both. Noone has used a 2nd bullet yet that is in the bet, but it is allowed.

that was my understanding too.

Can we switch tables or is it done automatically? When will we all get seated on a same table? I guess when there is only 9 of us left or?

Correct, once we get down to 9 players we will all be moved to 1 table. Have patience.

I think I might not able to share this one but for sure the next one I'll be able to, I'm just hoping the time for them will not be a hassle since the Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) might take last and people might be boring not doing anything at home here in the Philippines.

In the hopes of adding a little bit more fun to our game, I'm setting the Bad Beat Prize, 0.0025 BTC.

Not much chance of that happening but thanks for the initiative anyway. This way we can have a bit more insurance to go all in on a already great hand

I stand with Ukraine.

In the hopes of adding a little bit more fun to our game, I'm setting the Bad Beat Prize, 0.0025 BTC.

RULES:

If your

- full house is beaten by four of a kind;

- four of a kind is beaten by a better four of a kind or a straight flush

- straight flush is beaten by a better straight flush

make a screenshot so that we could see what happened, something like this

post it in this thread, and you'll get 0.0025 BTC transferred by me to your SwC Poker account.

From my experience, the probability of such an event is pretty low. So, I will be more than happy to give away 0.0025 just to see the screenshot of this happened in our tournament. It's a good deal for me. Really.

Good luck!

See you at the tables!

^Thx.

I have sent 1000 chips to FOMA for the side bet, and managed to find the tournament. All set now, will see you guys tomorrow, my nick is same as here.

received, OP updated. we have 5 people in the last longer bet now. it seems @buwaytress may be joining as well, not sure yet.

I might invite people on local next tourney if they'll interested to join on this tourney, even 2 to 3 people might make a difference on the coming tourneys if they can invite on their own.

sounds great. feel free to invite them (and share the password) to this one as well. Wink

we've got 8 players registered so far with a bunch of regulars still missing. i'm gonna post the password in here and the WO in maybe ~12 hours, and send out a last minute reminder.

edit: the game starts in 7 hours. the password is btc4682kr

hope to see you at the tables!

I am expecting to be among the first players out of the table since I didn't play poker in the last 10 years and stakes are low enough to make some rush decision.

Well, you've got the last longer bet motivation, I guess that's the one that will refrain you to make those rush decisions. See you around on 23 hrs. on the SwC table, I might expect it will be same as before that participants will be registering late and now we got 8 players count me in on that to 9.

I might invite people on local next tourney if they'll interested to join on this tourney, even 2 to 3 people might make a difference on the coming tourneys if they can invite on their own.

cool, i've received buy-ins from SyGambler and tyKiwanuka. 0.004 BTC pool for the side bet so far.

I am in for the tourney and side bet. Just deposited some btc to the site and trying to find my way around. Is there some way to filter tournaments? Yesterday I sow our tournament without problems and today after money arrived I have a shitload of tournaments available all with some plant names and numbers

1.5 days until the tournament. you know you're gonna be at home this weekend, come play some cards. Tongue

there's ~ a table full of regulars who haven't registered yet. i'll send them a last minute reminder the day of the tourney.

Quote from: yahoo62278 on March 20, 2020, 05:33:37 AM

@Figmentofmyass I would ask that you make the rules clear on joining the last longer bet, users must pay before tourney starts and join tourney before it starts. Would be unfair for someone to late reg last minute and 2 guys already out.

i agree, done.

Hey guys, there is still time to join the last longer bet as well. Currently only 3 of us in, only costs .001btc to join.

For those of you who may not know the understanding of the side bet, it means everyone that joins the bet the last person left in the tourney wins the whole side pot.

@Figmentofmyass I would ask that you make the rules clear on joining the last longer bet, users must pay before tourney starts and join tourney before it starts. Would be unfair for someone to late reg last minute and 2 guys already out.

Regarding the tournament, I cannot confirm the time right now, I am maybe busy untill 8 PM
What is the deadline to join the tournament?

It is 4pm UTC and it has late registration for 1.5 hours, if you think you'd be busy until that time I guess you won't be able to play the tourney. There's still room for the next match maybe by that time you'll be free from busyness.

great than, I will join you on the "last minute" chance if I will be free at that time
if not, please, contact me again for the next tournament

I was in, i am shipdachips. I linped KK hoping to catch someone getting silly and I did. Cehee open jammed kq and of course flop comes j9 rag, turn junk, river 10 for the straight. Put me low in chips so I shoved 66 or 55, I don't remember.

Either way, I went out next to last in the last game. Poker happens. I got my chips in good.

Woah, what a bad beat and a river for ceeche. I just meet ceeche on the other side of the table and he was really killing it and he really did. It's payback time for us this Sunday see you there.

He also f***** me with Ace high cuz I didnt hit anything with quite nice odds - payback time I guess! Cool

Mobile seems not a good thing to trash talk on since UI is not that good it has small font size and message box, pretty lame.

Feeling I want to register a throwaway account named "no_youcantwin". I guess I'd be lying the same as the recent game, no I won't bring any of those (toilet paper), I'll be hugging a pillow instead. @yahoo62278 wasn't around last game or he was on another table?

I stand with Ukraine.

I just registered for the tournament, so there are four of us now.

The timing is perfect for me, and I think 1h. 30 min. of late registration is really helpful for those for whom it's too early.

@Steamtyme, thanks for the videos from the last tournament! I've already started to analyze them.

The picture and emojis made me smile, but then I realized why some people may actually be buying up the toilet papers. I guess to wipe things they share with others , and not necessarily due to the other reasons I have seen people give online... Maybe that's main intention of those who started the toilet paper idea, but many people misunderstood it and start copying anyway.

I will hopefully watch this thread once in awhile for any good opportunity in the casino tournament.
