Hello, that is a good website upon visiting there, and also your ANN thread very detailed information.

I thought you're a new fresh-baked gambling site but upon checking on the domain name, it was registered in 2014. That's great!

The reward 2 bitcoin is quite big and I guess, on this prize, many gamblers will lure into your site(including me). Also, I hope it will expand the cryptocurrency that will be accepted, as we know bitcoin has very high fees these days.

Thanks mate :)

Yeah, the btc fees are high, but im thinking that maybe I can send withdrawals with something with low fees like LTC. I will keep you guys updated if people get interested.

Welcome. Good that you haven't given up after your experience in 2019. The casino looks great, and I can tell that UI is of high standard. I like how it feels and the promos you've got, like the Viral Prize are a nice 'breath of fresh air, in a way.

While this is the beginning, of what I hope to see, a distinct casino where everyone can enjoy themselves without a worry, there might be some scope of expanding the payment domain a little beyond BTC? I'm just thinking of fees, here, it may be worth considering other blockchains also  ;)

I have some questions;

1. How do we know that there are no super users  (We can not take just your words for it.) ?
2. What is the process of randomization of shuffling and dealing the cards ? Is it provably fair ?
3. Since no KYC is required how are you going to prevent poker collusion?
4. Which gambling license you posses?

Hey mate,

1. Well, I don't see any way to "see other's cards" or  any setting like that in the poker client.

2. You can read about the RNG and everything else by the developer himself: http://www.briggsoft.com/docs/pmavens/Utilities.htm#shuffle

3. We don't allow duplicate IPs, we don't allow connections from the same pc, we are doing a lot of heuristics in order to combat fraud. Also, we check hand histories to check for possible collusion in ring games or tournaments or SnGs. We also check depositing methods, register dates and much more. In any case if there would be fraud and our techniques wouldn't work,, we would have to implement kyc measures to avoid that.

4. No at the moment.

We might give an option to withdraw in other cryptocurrencies but the main option is Bitcoin.

We might offer withdraws with other cryptos like LTC but with a % as fee

Hey guys, if interested, we got a Bounty Campaign!

Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5322543

Welcome to the forum,

It is a good platform, it has a good future in how they can handle it, what if I notice is that every time I go to make a deposit, or search for anything an additional window is displayed, can that correct so as not to open another window? When I log in, only the blank environment appears and there is a lot to go down, but I didn't get anything else.

They have started on the right foot, they are with a social media campaign, and with signatures, this is excellent, any site that appeals to good publicity always does well.

Thank you for your comment :)

I believe the problem is that you have to allow iframes on https://royserpa.com/poker-room/play

And the new window thing, yeah you are right I will change that.

Well, first, welcome to the forum and to this bitcoin gambling community.
Just saying on this of what I have noticed in bounty, they don't mostly gain traffic to your website as I saw you have a signature campaign paid with your own coin. Just try the signature campaign that paid bitcoin, you can hire a quality poster for better promotion of your gambling site. That is a suggestion because of course, your money, your decision, and your rule. However, your site is looking good and it is potentially lures gamblers if there are more promotions, good luck with your business.

That's a good idea to be honest. Maybe we will add a signature campaign paid in bitcoin

 Really? You think we are that naïve?. Your response to  the possibility of super users is childish at best and fishy on average.  Another serious issue is that you do not have any gambling license nor any reputation to trust you with money. This space is highly competitive ( you are against gg poker e.g.), they got so many skins which requires no KYC and bitcoin deposits and cash outs.
So my suggestion to you is start with some hourly free rolls ( 20-50$ prize pool) which will give you some liquidity to get your low stake cash games going. Let people have the feel of your software. Unfortunately there is no quick and easy way out in this space. You have to have some sort of USP like lowest rake or big free rolls for rake accumulators. You can start some forum specific low buy in tourneys.
Any way it is good to have another option for crypto poker community but you have a long road ahead my friend.

NO KYC and also no gambling license? And no company information?

You must be new here  ;D

Yup, a long way to go, i know. But its feasible with the marketing we have on mind. We eill be doing tons of promotions in the coming weeks and months :)



Anonymous poker as it should be.

A lot of new gambling site these days, and its good to see a poker based gambling site.
Will check this one one later, for now welcome to the forum and in the world of crypto gambling.

No KYC is really good actually on a gambling site since we all want to become more private.

Gambling license is a big requirements for me to gambling on a gambling site so if this new site is still working for it then that’s better but if not, I’ll doubt about this one.

Company information can also be available on their site or somewhere else, this doesn’t bother me that much.

Thanks for the welcome, man.

We are working on getting a license. We will see our options and see which benefits us the best.

I agree that NO KYC is a great thing as players funds can't get "confiscated" for the excuse to get their KYC details, which tbh is just an excuse to get their info.

In any case, freerolls will be available soon :)

I just remembered that there is bitcoin lightning network, so that's what we can do to deposit and withdraw fast and cheap.

I will keep you guys posted

You website has good UI and it would be a good start for your casino.

---

Your team launched the promotion and it looks like the team did not write enough details for all campaign types. Payments will be paid one month after the 6 month campaign finishes. Eligible participants will receive payments in Phreess tokens.

How do the team count works of participants?
The bounty topic does not give how their works will be counted. Is the campaign based on a fixed payment every week or on stakes?

You need to rewrite your bounty rules.

i like how you prioritize bitcoin more than anything else and maybe this is the reason why you are charging extra fee if users prefer alts instead of btc , this idea can force players to gamble with btc only if they really find the site entertaining  but if not they can effortlesly switch to other poker sites that accept many coins without a catch.

your story was touching , i feel bad for your loss but i feel proud of you because you didnt gave up in your dreams .

Checked your site out and I felt that the design of your site is decent overall. You need to focus on promoting and advertising your site through different methods(Signature campaigns, bounties etc) in order to attract gamblers.

Advertising is crucial since crypto poker sites usually succumb to liquidity issues based on what I have observed.

This isn't a good thing IMO. Players should be given multiple options to choose from especially when the TX times and fees of BTC and ETH are skyrocketing these days.

I think the design is nice, and there aren't many poker places around, so this one might attract users. However, I am a little concerned with it clearly being totally illegal. You're not asking for KYC whatever the stakes are, and this makes the website perfect for money laundering. You also allow people from any jurisdictions to play, even though online gambling is not illegal in some of them. I'm sure that you don't have a license and will thus be getting profits from this casino also illegally. That being said, these features can be appealing to people from the crypto community, and your fee is indeed very low.

Hi, yes, basically, the twitter and telegram campaigns are about retweeting or making talk to each other in the telegram group - pretty simple stuff.

The signature campaign is about replacing their signature with one of our own and post on the forum.

The poker ambassador campaign is about getting players to play on our website while getting stakes, rakeback and whatever profits they produce playing poker





Absolutely, there are many strategies to play online poker




Yeah, it's a bitcoin poker room. We charge very low rake due to the fact that bitcoin can increase in price in the long term, so we are making that long term bet and we are sure that the low rake will pay off down the road. With other altcoins, they could bust or simply stop being developed, so that's why we focus on bitcoin only.



Awesome! We will be waiting you at the tables! We are also launching freerolls in the net few days at most, but we are going to let everyone know in this thread when that happens.




The goal is to hodl bitcoin in the long term, that's why we have such a low rake. Altcoins can go bust or stop being developed but bitcoin is here to stay. Now, there's a 10% fee if you want to deposit with altcoins, but the focus will be bitcoin.





I disagree with that. The goal of bitcoin is to provide peer to peer transactions, without the intervention of any government authority in between. If you say a bitcoin poker room is illegal, then owning or transacting with bitcoin is also illegal, which obviously it isn't.

I do believe in keeping everyone's privacy intact and NOT doing KYC is one way to start.

Maybe not doing kyc is not your cup of tea, but I'm sure a lot of other people do appreciate that fact.

And on the money laundering part, we are always on the look out for bad actors trying to deposit bitcoin from bad sources. We like privacy, but there are always limits and once we find bad bitcoin incoming, we would report it to the authorities as we are not in the business of facilitating money laundering through our site. ;)

10% fee to deposit with altcoins? Seriously? That's downright horrible. 2-3% withdrawal fees makes sense, but 10% deposit fees is crazy in my opinion.

Do you really think popular altcoins like LTC, XRP, Doge etc will go bust just like that even though their popularity continues to rise over time? I advise getting rid of the deposit fees and adding popular altcoins since BTC TX times and fees aren't exactly ideal these days.

Of course not all altcoins might go bust, but the focus is on bitcoin. You could avoid the 10% uncapped altcoins fee by simply depositing bitcoin. I know tx fees are high, but still you can send btc at lower fee.

You can refer to a site like https://bitcoinfees.net/ or https://bitcoinfees.earn.com/ to see how much you could pay in fees to moev your btc. You could sae 60% in fees or more if you choose a lower fee and are using segwit addresses (bc1). Though, deposit times may increase, you can always deposit btc at a lower fee.

I like it to see when new companies launch their site on the bitcointalk forum and everybody deserves a chance to promote his site so lets just see how things are going from now on a signature campaign could help

Right, as someone stated earlier, it's possible I will have to change the signature campaign to paid in btc to see some real interest.

https://i.imgur.com/sR3Q9Kt.png

I seems to be missing something but with only 2 minimum players as the requirements to start, doesnt this means 2 players colluding together in this GTD tourney would be beneficial for them?

Both of them could be playing for a while then jam on each another once they hit a premium hands to make it looks less suspicious then the winner would be taking the GTD prize then split the prizes after they withdraw it from the site?

Anyway, this is a decent site but there isnt a single soul online in the site right now.

Well, we understand, but I think it's a part of getting started. We can't just offer $50k GTD tournaments with like 20 players minimum when we are just getting started.

We are starting multiple bounty and other marketing campaigns in order to attract players.

Also, in the next coming days we will be introducing daily freerolls to get players going. In the meanwhile, we are planning on several marketing tactics to get players on board.

Signature campaign could really help promote every developments on particular sites, specially when there's a rewards given to every participants who used to sign up. Hopefully it's all worth it and everybody who delightfully wear the signatures of a gambling platform they'll going to advertise, will definitely earn and receive the rewards of their efforts.

You can also start some twitch and YouTube promotions on the following line;
1. Prize for 1st person who get straight/royal/ four of a kind on stream.
2. Bad beat jackpot.
3. Tourney won on stream.
4. Bank roll challenges on stream.
5. Free roll won on stream.

This will accelerate your marketing with some organic fertilizers.

You did not understand my post. You have fund for your campaign but how do you send payment each user?

From the fund pool for your signature campaign ($700,000), how do you pay for Hero/ Legendary members and down to Jr. member rank? You can not pay all ranks with same salary for each week posts, can't you?

You did not write details for your payment rates in signature campaign and other types of promotion.

Im not asking you to offer $50k with 20 players minimum or whatsoever. You seems to be missing the critical point of my post, What Im trying to say is that 2 players colluding each other would be able to drain the site's bankroll because you guys offer decent GTD amount with only two players minimum for the tourneys to start but I guess thats not a concern for now because there isnt anyone playing on the site.

Doubt that would happen but atleast put some precautions for this.


Goodluck

That's correct :) Users will win prizes and rewards :)




That's a good idea. On Monday March 15th we will be launching our first freeroll series on Roy's Poker Room!

We will also announce other cool promotions!



Now I understand, yes, that's correct, we didn't have several payment tiers as we will be paying an equal amount of $$$ for their job. Say, if there are 70 people with signatures with whatever forum ranks, they will each get $10k in rewards, disregarding forum rank.




Yes, I understand your point. I think it's a risk we are willing to take to get the games started. Also, those GTD tournaments are within the marketing budget, so even if that was to happen, it will all be within the marketing budget ;)

But, thanks for your worry :)

Daily Freerolls starting on Monday!

Yes! This Monday March 15th, 2021 we will start our daily BTC Freerolls!

More details coming soon!

Freerolls are starting tomorrow Monday!!!

We will be announcing daily freerolls where players have the chance to win big prizes!

Stay tuned for more  tomorrow!

Some small suggestion for the freerolls. Instead of just giving away withdrawable cash for players to withdraw after the freerolls end, change the prize into some sort of 'Tournament Dollars' that only can be used to register on tourneys. Another option is to give away entry tickets to some GTD tourneys to ensure those tourneys will run

Im probably going to join the freerolls to try the site too if the schedule suits me. Goodluck

Those are good suggestions, man. I will gladly consider that. I don't think there's an option for like tournament dollars, but I will think about a solution.

In the meanwhile, tickets are a good idea, but might make the freerolls way too expensive. So, in the meanwhile, withdrawable cash will be awarded to everyone :)

There will be no need for "rake requirements" or other kind of bs :)

0.1% rakeback ? instantly given ? but looks like this is much lower as others gives 2% and up.
How Long will this last ? there are many gambling site that tells this same rules but when the Players luckily won a Big amount and when withdrawal comes suddenly KYC will be asked for some reason .
This is cool , cannot you lower ths for at least 0.005btc? Because with the current  Value of Bitcoin this is Too high for small time gambler to deposit.

Not 0.1% rakeback, but 0.1% Rake taken from pots or per tournament entry. Like, for a $1,000 USD tournament entry, you would pay only $1 USD as fee/commission/rake.



It will last as long as this site lasts. I know how casinos can be that's the reason why decided to go no kyc as there can't be an excuse to withdraw. Now, if we found foul play like collusion or deposits coming from bad actors (hackers, thiefs, etc etc), we will stop those funds and ban the accounts, but at no point will KYC be asked.



Yeah, I guess 5mbtc should be ok, as btc just reached $60k.

Stay tuned for more, fellas! Freerolls will be announced and other cool promos!

Finally the freerolls are here fellas!

You can find more info at: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5323980

There are 5 daily freerolls!

4x 1 Chip Freeroll with no requirement nor buy in.

And 1 Daily 10mBTC Freeroll!

Now, for the daily 10mbtc freeroll, you have to play 1 tournament with buy in of 250 Chips or more and then contact us on telegram (@royserpa) with which tournament you played, then you will get credited with a ticket so you can register to the 10mbtc freeroll. If there are any questions please let me know Smiley

Tried this few minutes ago. Its not the fanciest poker site but atleast it works and it is quite decent. I was playing straight from my browser so probably few of this feature isnt available if I play without the client

1. I dont seems to be able to change the chip stack into BB count (?)
2. There is no information counter regarding number of players left as well as the current blind level also countdown for the next blind level. I think this is pretty standard thing to have in an MTT (?).

also this is pretty weird

https://i.imgur.com/GIgdq7r.png

I checked the other tournaments, it seems everything was set to start the break after every 6 levels with 10 minutes blind level so basically 00 - 05 minutes of every hour but in the freerolls tournament with 3 minutes blind level, the break will start at 18th minutes which is kinda weird. I mean why would we start a break after playing for only 18 minutes ? This freerolls literally ended less than 30 minutes , having a break is kinda fultile.


With only 2 players minimum requirement to run , its pretty EV+ for players but at the same time its pretty easy to abuse as well  :P

---

Will be back trying more things tomorrow

Hey, thanks for playing! Hope it was a fun experience! :)

At this time, I don't think we can change the chips to bb, but I will ask the dev to do that in the next update. Should be pretty simple with a hotkey or something.

For the tournament info, you can 1-click a tournament, then click the Tournament Info below, like in this pic:

https://i.imgur.com/fmFAYWR.png





I just fixed that. I forgot the levels were 3 minutes lol. Maybe 1 break every 1 hour should be enough.

And for the 10mbtc freeroll, yeah, we made it that way to get more people interested :)

As more people come in, the 10mbtc prize will grow as well as the minimum players, but for now, 2 minimum players is good :)

Its pretty much standard feature to have. In MTT especially in a deep run, its hard to count your remaining chips especially when the blinds gets pretty high and your stack gets pretty big


Its enough. Btw most sites uses the standard break time that starts at 55th minutes every hour instead of 00


If you have 10 mbtc budget to spend with the potential of being abused by two players colluding each other. You might as well want to spend those budget into the freerolls. You can simply run more frequent freerolls with those budgets instead of every 6 hours

Too bad no one is really around to start the MTT, It is really tempting to start those MTT  :)

Yes you are right. I just sent an email to the dev, let's see if that can be done :)



Ah yeah, i do remember that. Well, if enough players want it, we can change it, no problem :)

[/quote]

Of course we don't want them to get abused, but it's to get the games started :)

Actually, a couple of guys told me they would deposit today or tomorrow to try out the MTTs. Hopefully they do, so they can get started :)

While you are this, you might want to change few things for your MTT's lobby

Instead of this,
https://i.imgur.com/GUsERlY.png

Yeah I know this means its not yet available for registration which is confusing for some people , you might want to just add another column for the MTT' status that state the status of the tournament ( Announced, Registering, Running, Late registration or some sort like that )


I mean like its pretty much industry standard thing so why bother with being different though


That would be nice , starting the 100 chips buy in MTT with some folks for starting point would be great. I would want to join in case there are some people that want to start this

I think the lobby is a default by the poker client. I will def comment this to the dev so to have it shown that way.

In regards to the break time, sure I will change it. Doesn't seem to have any impact on anything.

Yeah, hopefully they deposit so at least some MTTs get started while this poker room starts gainning track :)




================================
================================




We decided to increase the minimum deposit amount from 1 satoshi (0.00000001 BTC) to 100,000 satoshis (0.001 BTC) due to the increased mining fees, as well as increase the minimum withdrawal of 10,000 satoshis (0.0001 BTC) to 100,000 satoshis (0.001 BTC).

A few days ago we tried to move 0.1 mbtc from one wallet to another and it took days. We had to pay almost half of the 0.1 mbtc in mining fees to move the coins. So, as the fees are too high, we had to increase both deposit and withdrawal minimum amounts to 0.001 BTC (1,000 Chips) each

The previous minimum amounts for deposits was 1 satoshi (0.00000001 BTC) and the minimum withdrawal was 10,000 satoshis (0.0001 BTC).

Hopefully mining fees lower in the future so we can lower the minimum amounts. :)


In Short:

New Withdrawal and Deposit minimum amounts:

Minimum Deposit: 0.001 BTC
Minimum Withdrawal: 0.001 BTC

Depending on BTC price and mining fees, we might change this values, but they will stay like this for the time being.

I always be inspire playing when the Site promises total no KYC regulation so I think this one place for me is good.

Checking the site now and may consider playing soon , Any welcome bonuses for new comer ?

 ;D ;D ;D

Is it fair for them? Each rank has different character limits in their signatures and the Roy's Poker gambling site will be allowed to include different contents, links in signature for different ranks. Your website will get different traffics from different signature. I think your team can reconsider the payment for different ranks because of those reasons.

Details are on FAQ: https://royserpa.com/poker-room/frequently-asked-questions/#004

How the mining fee will be presented for a withdrawal? Can use check the mining fee that is used by the site?

Do you imply that the mining fee will be dynamic not static?

Right? I do believe crypto and kyc doesn't go hand in hand imho.

Well, get have daily freerolls, daily guaranteed tournaments weekly rake races, 200% rakeback and more promos!




Well, it's a lot of money to be shared, so it encourages the newbies to post more and encourages the higher ranks as well :) Everybody is happy :)



Yup! That's the correct link!



The fee is dynamic and we base our decision based on https://bitcoinfees.net/ and we consider between the <20min fee and the <1h fee. Obv, we won't set a very low fee that takes days to confirm but also not an extremely high fee that takes a lot of the funds.

A mining fee that's reasonable and gets confirmed within 10 minutes to 1 hour at most.

Hey guys, what do you think of a tournament of prizepool of 10 mbtc and buy in of 0.1 mbtc with rebuys and add-ons?

Maybe to get MTTs started, I can offer you 1 Daily tournament like that.

Let us know your opinion! :)

Congrats to our first 2 players to win tickets to the 10mbtc freeroll!

Congrats to genuineLuck and uokmusic!

Your tickets have been added to your accounts and you can play 1x 10 mbtc freeroll any day you want!

Remember guys, all you have to do is play 1 tournament of buy in of 250 Chips (0.00025 BTC) or higher to get your tickets to the daily 10 mbtc freeroll :)

Yeah Got my Free rolls and that's cool when hitting good . And looking forwad claiming that 200% rakeback soon .


That's fair enough but it's fine i believe to make it reduce down to 0.0005 Btc as the value of Bitcoin is constantly increasing , maybe your experience recently is because of congestion but when the situation goes back to normal i think that 100,000 satoshi is High for small bettors .

Just my 2 cents.

Awesome! We will be waiting for you :)



Absolutely. Back in 2019 when I was going to launch this site, mining fees were extremely low and sending 0.1 mbtc was very cheap, but as btc gained track, mining fees went through the roof so we had to increase the deposit and withdrawal minimums.

Of course, once it lowers again, we will gladly decrease the minimums :)

Hey guys, here are the standings of the Weekly Rake Race #1 ($250 USD) in prizes!

Remember that the Rake Race ends on Sunday March 21st!

https://i.imgur.com/aGD3Pxe.png

As more players join the tables, we will increase the weekly rake race prizes!

EDIT: The rebuy gives you 200 Chips, not 2,000 Chips. It was a typo.




Runs: 14:00
Buy In: 0.00 Chips - NO ENTRY FEE!
Fee: 0.00 Chips
Max Entrants: 135 Players


Starting Chips: 200 Tournament Chips
Re buy fee: 100.00 Chips (0.0001 BTC)
Rebuy Chips: 200

Registration Starts: Whenever you want. You can start registering the day before.




NOTE: Winner (#1) takes home the prize!

NOTE 2: Rebuys and Addons are optional, you can win without them!

This is weird though

https://i.imgur.com/zRwivKh.png

What does 'waiting' even mean ? is this the registration window for the next tournament with this same format? because you mentioned in your last post that the registration starts a day before

I mean its kinda weird though to have the same lobby for two similar tournament althought both has different start time. Just my 2 cents here

Yeah, the freeroll started at 2pm and late registration closed at 4pm (2 hours after it starts) and if you try to register past 4pm, it will register you to the freeroll for the next day.

Today was an incredible day for the 10 mbtc freeroll, fellas! 22 players!

Congrats to COINaisseur for the win!

See you tomorrow at 2pm, fellas!

200 starting chips (not even 10bb) ? are you serious? Standard rebuy rules across all reputed poker tells us that it should be 200 chips (or 2x chips for 2x rebuy) but no in you case it is 2000 chips. Look at the addon 20000 chips, what a joke this is. Clearly its not free roll its just that you are going to suck money from day one. I have to say this but sorry You clearly lack the vision and caliber for running a reputable poker room. Either change your free roll structure or stop calling it free roll.  And what is this 1 chip freeroll thing, comedy at its peak or what?

Hey thsceptic, the Daily 1 Chip (100 Satoshis or 0.00000100 BTC) Freerolls are there to offer a chance at players to get to know the site and make some satoshis while at it. Of course they are not there to make anyone rich.

Now, for the 10 mbtc freeroll, the entry is FREE. The rebuys are there to incentivize people to deposit and play on our MTTs. You can win without depositing for sure, no doubt about it.

Of course we are losing money on the freerolls, it's marketing, or business expenses, but it's a great way to incentivize players on our site. Now, a 10 mbtc freeroll with no entry fee and no rebuys or addons would only bring people looking for free money, which it's our goal, but also, with rebuys and add ons, we reward players to deposit and have a greater chance to win.

I think it's a great way to compensate our players with our daily freerolls imho.

EDIT: Oh and by the way, that's correct, the rebuy is 200 Chips so I corrected the posts where it said 2,000 Chips. It's unlimited rebuys and 1 add on for 20k chips. I believe it's great value for our players.

EDIT 2: The format is called hyper-turbo on other poker sites, so yeah, starting with 10 bb and having rebuys and addon is great for a hyper-turbo freeroll.

"Hyper turbo" is still more than 10bbs at the start, just so you know.
I have also never seen a tournament (other than allin tournaments) with 10bb at the start.

Just reading about the 20k addon for on a 200chip starting stack makes me laugh.

Something else doesnt make it a real freeroll, people have to qualify for it by playing a buyin tournament.

I mean, the tournament is 100% free to enter. Is it tough to win? Everything is tough in this life. The rebuys and add ons are an incentive for people to deposit and play on our site. Is it wrong? Of course not, it's called marketing.

So, its great value to our players. It's tough win as with anything in life.

Good luck at the tables :)

It is not free to enter when you have to play a tournament to be able to play the freeroll.

Ohh I think you are mistaking two tournaments.

There are 2 daily 10 mbtc freerolls.

The first daily 10 mbtc freeroll¿ at 4pm, you need to play at least 1 tournament of buy in of 250 chips in order to get a ticket and play it.

The second daily 10 mbtc freeroll at 2pm, it's entry fee is 0.00 Chips (NO BTC) and it has unlimited rebuys for 2 hours and an add on after 12 levels. This freeroll at 2pm is totally free of charge and you don't need to deposit at all to play the tournament.

Obviously, the tournament requirement for the first freeroll and the rebuys plus add on for the second one are there to incentivize players to deposit and play our MTTs.

I hope I explained everything clearly, else please let me know. :)

Ah ok, didn't know there are two 10mbtc tournaments, my bad.

Hey guys, wewill be posting the weekly race result and start the next one soon!

Am try to connect to poker room but while I can correctly log in to website I get a host error when I try to enter the poker client page : is it only me or anyone else experiencing issues?

A few users reported that. It was a problem with cloudflare throttling connections. It should be fixed by now.

Please let me know if you find other problems, we will get on it :)

How are the freerolls going guys? Are you liking them?

What would you like to see on the site? Any comments or suggestions are appreciated :)

I have problems entering to play, I do not know if this is happening to you?
I have changed my browser but it is the same.

Are they in maintenance on the platform?

When I enter the site the new windows are still being displayed, I do not know if you could suggest that on the home page there are the options to enter directly to play, and not put it in "cashier" for another window? since when you scroll down there is only the Ro´ys Poker Room letterhead...

Fixed. Can you please check it on your end?

Everything is fine now:

Thank you very much, I will see if I can try my luck in an online tournament, any recommendations? I want to enter where there are enough players, so the chances of winning increase much more. You can also lead social networks, you can publish an online poker tournament, on social networks there are many players who are looking for excitement.

Well as you can see, most of the tournament doesnt run because this site lacks players. Some people show up at the 1 chip freeroll and 10mbtc freerolls but you will probably need add on or rebuys to be able to win this 10 mbtc otherwise your chances are slim with only 10 bb


The market for poker is actually very small. Most people will still choose to play in most of the top fiat poker sites such as stars, ggpoker or some other site because those sites accept crypto deposit so unless a new site could offer something different then it would be hard to get a decent share of the market

Totally agreed, guys.

We are having some promotions in mind that will be deployed in the future. For the time being, there are freerolls daily :)

Hello there Roy, some days ago played one 10 mBTC freeroll and as someone already told starting stack, in terms of BB, make the tournament a lottery meaning that you have to gamble away to build a nice stack at the beginning otherwise you just get blinded out in matter of few rounds also considering it's a six handed format if I recall correctly.

In my opinion it would be preferable splitting this 10 mBtc in more tournaments: maybe ten 1 mBTC freerolls one every couple of hours or so,  to cover most of timezones and to have some action running 24h on site.
Maybe add some rake requirements to withdraw freeroll winnings or viceversa add rake/raked hands requirements to join freerolls so to have also cash tables running ... I have lot of ways in mind to try rising traffic a bit up but then it's up to you evaluating if they are a sustainable business.

These freeroll are joke.

Its Roy play this freeroll,why only firs plays take all,why ItsHulk,always wins and rebays???!!!!

Its either fold or shove on this freeroll because of the blind structure


Another option would be to split this 10 mbtc freeroll into top 5 places paid ( 2mbtc each ) and make this as a normal 100BB tournament. Put some disclaimer on this freeroll that funds obtained from this freeroll isnt withdrawable so winner has no other choice but to register another tournament and play.

This would increase the site's activity because atleast 5 players are going to be playing tournaments so that would encourage another player to deposit and joins the tournament as well


Because only that user deposit to the site? probably.

Hey guys, we are thinking of ways to change our freerolls so that everyone wins and can play the tournaments on our site :)

We appreciate your opinions and we will let you guys know our plans soon.


Yeah, actually he is one of the few players that have deposited.

Technically, you can win without depositing, but obviously rebuying makes it a lot easier to win in the long run against people with only 1 bullet.

We will release new freerolls with new structure soon, guys.

Stay tuned!

Hey guys, next monday we will announce the new freerolls as well as the schedule.

It's several hours am trying to connect to poker room but without success , tried on two different devices and two different connections but results are always teh same : I can log into the web page but poker software doesn't load up.
Is it a general issue?

Im glad that Im not the only one with this issue, I had the same issue since yesterday. I tried with two different browsers and it doesnt works. Also tried to clear cache and hard reload the web page but the poker client doesnt load. Logging in is fine but there is only a white blank page afterward

I thought I was the only one with this issue.

Hey guys, can you share your country of connection? It seems Cloudflare is limiting some connections to some countries. Also, please make sure to allow iframes as the poker client is iframed on the site.

Sounds very nice.
I will sign up and give it a try later.

Lightning deposit/withdraw would be nice.

No clue about what this iframes/iframed thing is about : any suggestions on how to check the status of my browser regarding this?
Country shouldn't be an issue most likely.


This is what I an experiencing if by any chance may help.

Can't sign up: Error: There was something wrong. Please try registering again
Tryped multiple times :(

Hey guys, we came up with a financial situation. It seems we gave out too much btc on the daily freerolls and we will have to change our strategy.

$500-$600 a day is not lunch money, so we will have to change our strategy.

We will be back in 1 week.

If you want to withdraw your balance, please PM me or @phreess and we will get a hold of it.

Your funds are safe, everything is safe, but we will have to change our strategy if we want to continue on this game.

Sorry for the incnvenience, guys!

Nothing to do with cloudflare and definitely this is an issue with the site / poker client


The old 0.01 btc freerolls with addons and rebuys finally backfire huh. I thought something like this will happen sooner or later and its one of the weirdest structure for freerolls because thats basically just giving away money. You should run the site with 0.01 btc budget for each week and separate it into few freerolls to attract some players to try the site out ( or if it is too much, simply lock the freerolls funds to only allow players to use it for tournament buy in )
