FYI the BIG BTC, which is running now, had 56 players show up for it today!

~8 coins FTW / 26.6 coin prizepool

HUGE IMO

Got disconnected twice in the first ~40 minutes which is pretty ridiculous.  That tourney cost too much money for me to justify playing under those conditions.

I just had a disconnect and couldn't log in for more than 5 minutes. Sad

nl200 stars = 2.8$ in rake cap.
nl200 SWC ~ 4.2$ in rake cap.


Could it be that this comes about due to the rise in the valuation of of the "raked" unit?

The unit at STARS is a fixed monetary unit.  While the unit at SWC is in constant flux in relation to the same fixed monetary units.

Highest rake in the industry on cashgames atm

What the hell are you talking about?

Poker stars:  4.5% rounded UP cap @ 0.30-5.00
Seals.          :  2.5% rounded DOWN cap @ 0.24 - 4.00

5 Chips rake ~ 4,2$

Other rooms charging 3$ or less, on top of rakeback and bonuses, so yeah...

If youre so seriously baller that you are paying three dollar rake at stars (that's 2kNL BTW) then you would not be complaining about rake lol.

At 10nl (or btc eqv) you pay $1.50 at stars or $0.30 at seals.
25nl   $2 stars. 75¢ seals.

And like micon said.  Play short handed with rake back?  Pay less than half that.

But yeah...  Since you pay $3vs4 at seals then you must feel that dollar difference up at 2000nl when you rake those $5k pots.

Micon has to be nice.  I dont.

You're full of shit.  I'm all in.

nl200 stars = 2.8$ in rake cap.
nl200 SWC ~ 4.2$ in rake cap.

and stars have a vip program that gives decent rewards. To get any with SWC you have to rake for a gazzilion.

Seals.          :  2.5% rounded DOWN cap @ 0.24 - 4.00

when calculating the rake on SwC you must make player-positive equity adjustments for:

-- 50% tablestarter rakeback 2 or 3 handed
-- Krill-based Rakeback
-- Free coins in Krill-rolls
-- Frequent MTT overlays

And likely others I am forgetting about.  The first 2 drastically reduce rake for active cash players.  Also I think it's worth noting we have lowered the rake multiple times this year.

I was coming here to make a new thread to talk about an AMAZING site I found for online poker with bitcoins... then I see a huge thread about it almost at the top Cheesy  Great site man, you're lucky you were the first in.  You must be making some serious cash since there are no huge competitors like PokerStars offering the bitcoin service.

I played poker quite a lot and did it as a small income, but withdrew all since I believe bitcoin will grow in value faster than I can grind with the bankroll.  Now I have best of both worlds!  MONEY is in BTC, and I can still make income playing poker with it!  HOW SICK IS THAT!

glad you are on board! / been telling poker players to grind / save coins for 2 yrs now / hashtag winning strategy


Micon,

Did I make the cut for free hats yesterday? That would be really cool considering I live in Ohio and go to Horseshoe poker room daily. I am always telling people about Seals.

you didn't make the cut but I will fire one out anyway.  If anyone else wants one, email me [email protected] and I'll forward to our hat guy.  Trying to get the hat process down by ~Feb. 2014 because I know everyone wants one and doesn't mind paying small monies for something really nice with their username.  We don't want to make any money on it but we need a reliable provider.


also...

Holy shit the BIG BTC gonna be big today...

Bummer about late reg I hate late reg especiall when some sites keep it open 2 hours.  I don't get all the late rebuys just coming in to shove, yes I know just dead money I just prefer the no late registration. I am guessing briggs software has no late registration  which is why it is not an option.

Any plans to add late registration to tourneys?  Being able to register for up to 10 minutes after the start time would be really nice.

as a player I hate not having late reg.  I like to max-late-reg sometimes and just fire at higher blinds.  You can expect this feature in the large level-up to our system Q1 2014.   Definitely sucks not having it now, fields would be ~10-20% larger IMO.

Speaking of large fields... the BIG BTC is going to be huge tomorrow with the recent btc run up.

20 coins guaranteed!  .5 buy in! Tomorrow 2pm Vegas time / 5pm ET

Saturday 5k Guarantee at 2pm Las Vegas time [check your local Oblast for your time] [in about 2 hrs from now]

95+5  [.1 btc] & 5,000 guarantee aka 5 bitcoins.

that's now a high-value MTT, and the BIG BTC will be a heashot MTT tomorrow.  We may need to adjust these soon so let's strike while the iron is hot (although I'm thinking keep Saturday a "beefy" MTT / maybe we could add something like a 10 chip / 500 guar that starts an hr or 2 later on Saturday)

GLGLGLGL / I'll see you there. 

Oh, and there are 35 cash tables running now too at limits from .05-.01 all the way to 10-20 PLO [2 coin buy in PLO has been running frequently]

so something for every bankroll always going at SwC at this stage.

Huge thank you to Seal Team 6 for their never-ending work on the site enabling us to spread all of this action today!
