I'm not seeing a link on the deposit page to "generate BTC address"?? (I know you just rolled it out ;) )

**never mind I just didn't see it on my phone, works fine on desktop ;)**

I'll be back like usual then!question! Do you have any tournament that worth trying?
People wants to know that before depositing

And even the crowds that play freerolls there are a bit scary,in the most horrible way you can say that,it's without rules and I don't like it.

Not Maverns Software again what that put me off straight away  :(

What do you mean without rules? I guess there are always rules in freerolls or even in other gambling games. Can you elaborate it?

You are not interested in opening deposit bitcoin ?
I have seen many posts asking about poker bitcoin

nice bonus, we deposit 1 million doge to get 2 million doge bonus, and we will have 3 million in total, so what's the rollover or wager requirement to get the bonus into the real money which we can withdraw?? Thanks dude, nice promo.

I love the dogecoin doggy as gambler :) Your website is simple, yet stylish, I like it a lot.

What's wrong with Mavens?

Do you guys offer any type of table starter rake back? How does rakeback work (if you offer it)

This thread is clearly made to inform us that they are now accepting deposit via btc although players will still play with doge.

I want to deposit with bitcoin but I do not find a bitcoin address , only the address dogecoin

so there is a 3% fee on BTC deposits? So once I generate a BTC address I can always use the same one? (i.e. I can add it to my address book?)

Scroll down the page and you'll find a button to generate a new bitcoin address. Once you generate it, you'll be able to deposit with btc.

Looks like very nice platform
Which poker network its connected to ?

It is connected to Poker Mavens.
You can get more information about Poker Mavens here : https://www.briggsoft.com/pmavens.htm

I have a poker mavens $100 software so if you want I can give that to you for cheap :P ;)

Ow nice, i didn't even know you could just buy that kind of software.

are balances kept in cold storage/secure in case of a DDOS attack?

a lot of players online but nothing is playing at the table
To date I have yet to find a poker site that has a lot of players at the table  >:(

Yes - the BTC address stays the same, so you can add it to your address book.

why there is a deposit 3% fee? I can't understand that and the fee is too high, and if i deposit dogecoin there, can i also get 200% deposit bonus? If i can, i just deposit dogecoin and can avoid to pay 3% deposit fee.

I don't know why I didn't see this thread till now , but I'm really excited and for sure I will give it a try
I saw people streaming pokershipes but I have never tried it cause I'm not interested in Doge coins , but now it's time for some poekrshipes I guess  ;D

The fee's there to prevent people from using us as a free exchange - of course you can deposit dogecoin and avoid the fee!  Your first deposit, whatever method you use, will receive the deposit bonus.

I would really like to suggest changing the 3% deposit fee. It think it would be beneficial to the room to change to policy to something like "with a BTC you must rake 3% of your deposit in order to avoid a 3% withdrawal fee". I think by doing something similar it would help drive up the cash game traffic quite a bit, and more folks would take you up on the deposit bonus offer. As of now, it would seem to be cheaper to the player to use a service like ShapeShift to do the BTC->Doge conversion

Have you thought about making a thread at 2+2 about the room?

seeing if traffic has picked up at all since you guys started accepting BTC for deposit?

hahahaha nice I love this game of poker, whether it has a table with small bets

Disgusting. Will not touch this site. 3% deposit fee? OUTRAGEOUS! There should not even be a deposit fee, at most a fee of 0.0001. Are you saying that if I deposit 3 BTC, I have to give you 5 bucks just to play on your site? No thanks.

I would take your BTC and buy a calculator... just sayin

New update from admins: https://www.reddit.com/r/pokershibes/comments/4sdxiv/update_from_admin_state_of_the_shibe/

I winder what can be potentially wrong with their domain. I have no idea about what is really going on with pokershibes.eu but domain problems are common excuse  and indicator of scammy behaviour.
I've seen it many times, most recently - HashOcean scam cloud mining, claimed that their domain was hacked as well. when they initiated their exit scam. I hope this not similar case.

My opinion is pokershibes just ran out of doge. The huge guarantees on tournaments, and the freerolls, were never adjusted when players left (Edit: before suchflush took over site). When they were adjusted it was too little too late.
  
People were doing the math, over a year ago, and wondering how the site was surviving. We were told site was making just enough to cover expenses. The domain seems to be suspended due to legal activity.

any news or is the site now fully defunct?

Temp site up at: https://shibes.poker/ Not sure if fully functional yet. Admins are suppose to let everyone know by Reddit and Twitter.

https://www.reddit.com/r/pokershibes/

As far as I know, all pending withdrawals have been paid out. I have received all of my doge that I withdrew.

Hi Shibes! New and Improved Shibes Admins here!: Out with the old, in with the new! As you all know Such Flush, DogeDamsel and BlakShibe are hard at work to keep our community strong. As of July 14th we have processed all withdrawals from the site! This should clear up all the outstanding issues from the previous owner. Please contact us through the subreddit if you have any questions or concerns. Going forward our priority is providing quick and active support to the community.

We'll be planning some downtime in the next few weeks as the Shibes infrastructure is moved to new servers at a new datacenter. This will coincide with some updates to the front-end site and back-end software upgrades. We'll also be adjusting the rake structure and DogeDamsel will be revamping tourney offerings with community input. We're also designing a Reload Bonus program for Shibes that have completed their deposit bonuses - you get another chance for us to match your Doge! The upgraded back-end software will offer 7-Card Stud, Stud Hi-Lo, Razz and mixed games like HORSE!

Bitcoin Deposits: Bitcoin Deposits are now live! More information is available at the link above. Let's give a warm welcome to the Bitcoin Community!
Referral Rewards Program: One of the best ways to earn extra doge is to refer your friends and acquaintances to PokerShibes! You can earn 5-20% of all the rake they generate for the life of their account! The referral program is explained in the link above.
Deposit Bonus Program: Deposit Bonuses are live! Your first deposit from this point will now activate your deposit bonus. More information can be found in the link above.
Much luck!

That took some time but I'm glad its back. Good to see the admin letting us all know whats going on though. Very good. Hope everyone has a successful withdraw.

"This site can’t be reached

pokershibes.eu’s server DNS address could not be found.
DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN"

This is what I see when I open your page, I hope you will fix this. I`m glad that one more site started to accept bitcoin deposits, that means a lot for this community. Slowly site by site starting to accept btc, and soon almost every site will accept btc like any other currency. Of course first sites will have more chances to grab good players.

For now its not working, but I hope you will fix this problem soon, and I will come to try your site for sure. I love to play poker, good luck!

That is a very good step from your site you will get more profit because many people want to gamble on bitcoin accepting sites because they do not want to show that they are gambling because in some places it is not allowed. You will get good traffic but along with that you also need to advertise it on this forum to start a signature campaign because it will promote your site to almost all members of the forum.

Dogecoin is not popular like 2014, you should know that, I see not many players in your site, if you implement bitcoin poker, or other anonymous coin poker into your site, you can get more traffic.

Dear Shibes,

Such Flush here looking back on another year with Poker Shibes and looking ahead to where we are going!

You may recall my last official update State of the Shibe, March 2017 Edition.

It is my duty to apologize in that I failed to deliver on the promise of more regular updates throughout the year. I had anticipated at least 1 or 2 more of these State of the Shibe posts this year. Historically, we've only done 1-2 of these a year, but I am committed to producing at least 4 State of the Shibe posts in 2018. That's my New Year's Resolution for 2018. What's yours?

It is also my duty to report on the overall state of things that were looking good last time:

* Infrastructure - Still on the "New" infrastructure as reported in the last update, but even more of it has been automated and moved in
* Mavens software upgrade offering Razz, Stud, HORSE and other mixed games - We've kept up with updates as they come as well, reporting and squashing bugs upstream as needed
* User survey undertaken - We have implemented several policies and ideas based on the results of this survey
* New Sunday Tournaments - There was a pretty decently contested official Sundays season where people won special edition PokerShibes clay poker chips (status: shipped)[/li][/list]

By the Numbers, since the last update:

* Support: Over 400 closed tickets since 2017 May 1
* Poker Room: Completed at least 10 sets of changes tracked by a work ticket (there were surely more adjustments untracked)
* Operations: Responded to 6 emergency fires such as "Site is Down" with another 6 tickets of planned updates
* Development: Closed just over 20 tickets for software and infrastructure improvements

In the last year we have completed the following things you might not necessarily be aware of:

* Investigated numerous suspicious user accounts and banned some bad doges
* Repaired our Bitcoin Deposit handler infrastructure
* Handled all official support cases via support@shibes.poker
* Most support cases being handled or at least responded to within 24 hours (if not, it was probably my fault and I am sorry)
* Fixed some more small bugs in the frontend website as a result of support cases
* Updated the Rewards Levels - Shibe now takes half as much rake to achieve as it did before
* Expanded the use of our infrastructure as code and automation around our infrastructure and services
* Expanded the use and functionality of our new backend software

The last one is a big deal and is one of the major reasons for this posting.

For at least the last 6 months we have been tracking all tournament results and hand results live, which old Shibes will remember is a huge change from our previous backend software. With the old software we were only able to run updates for rewards at best every 24 hours. Unfortunately, we were unable to use the old backend software with the new infrastructure, so rewards, according to the frontend website, have not been updated in about 9 months either. Today, we are announcing that the new backend software is officially ready for production integration and we are releasing the first integrations of the frontend website with the new backend this week.

What this means for you, the valued PokerShibes player who has participated somehow in the last year:

* Rewards level display in profile page will be mostly live (there's still a bit of caching/delay involved, nerds feel free to ask for more specific details)
* Player rakeback via RocketFuel generated will be applied to new rewards system and Moon Points awarded
* PokerShibes Clay Chips will be on sale in the Moon Points store
* Deposit bonuses will be processed, awarded, and reported on the profile page
* Affiliate rewards will be processed, awarded, and reported on the profile page

Merry Christmas (belated) and Happy New Year!

In 2018 you can expect to see many changes in the poker room here at PokerShibes, including, but not limited to:

* New New Sunday Tournaments and another Official Season with prizes
* More Mixed Tables and Tournaments
* Special Prize Tournaments and Tables
* User-specified temporary table creation

With Excitement,

Such Flush

15 online players but no active tables, one table with 3 players but 2 of them are sitting out. Afaik you have been in this industry since 2-3 years ago but seems it is still hard for you to get real active players and table.
Do you have any smart plan to make your ring games full of players? It is really unfortunate for an old site like you but still struggling to find players.

I played on PokerShibes the last go around, and will give them another try. Any info on when the traffic is at the highest?

i played yesterday evening around this time and there was 30 players and 4-5 tables running
the week end is more active, especially sunday with good tourney

just chiming in to say that i had a couple hundred thousand dogecoin on this website and they vanished.

What a disaster, base on the current conversion it is more than $5k usd. I wonder why you decided to put that huge amount money in their platform and now the team behind the dead platform are enjoying your money.

I really hate this kind of scenario where the creators of a certain platform will just vanished easily after they can get what they want. I hope that you have learned from your mistake and never to trust your money to a non reputable platform again.

I love playing poker since I learned playing poker. I am agreeing with other people here that I will play using dogecoin like I gamble using dogecoin on a dice site before. I have also tried playing poker on acewins.io using their own token but I don't know if they are still active. I wonder if this site is also one of a kind. Anyway, I can't access the site using mobile phone but i'll try it on desktop.

So I got a couple updates yesterday so I thought I would pass it along to the community. Firstly, I got a message from blak-shibe and I'm gonna relay it here:

"I'm not helping out pokershibes anymore, but I know their main server had a hard drive failure about 10-15 days ago. I was trying to help get the VM's transferred to a backup server but their current admin (suchflush) is super busy with work "


Additionally, I posted a Reddit request to remove the mods here (for the scam posts) which finally got a response as well from the poker-shibes account:

"The website owners have not taken off and we have removed the scammy spam posts (which did not have any reports).

We are currently dealing with some technical issues and will be back soon with updates here and on our official Twitter account."


I still haven't received payment, but I am much more optimistic as this is the first response I've gotten since trying to withdraw months ago.

Site is down for a long time already.

It was great but too bad theybdidnt had that much players.
