Bitcoin Forum

I have checked out a few websites so far and they all seem dead. No users. So what bitcoin poker website is out there that has users?

Seals is your best bet.

We sure are. 5 tables running right now, various stakes. Instant deposits.

Good good. I am surprised you weren't on the first few I looked at

We come up second for googling "bitcoin poker" now.

If you like tournaments, don't miss the 60BTC guarantee on Sundays, 2BTC to enter.

Thats funny. I googled bitcoin poker and I checked 4 out of the top 5. I skipped you because, well at the time i probably just saw seals not bitcoin. Hmm.

Ah, the downside of not jamming bitcoin into the name. But surely you must have been curious, "Seals! Seals?! They don't have anything to do with bitcoin or poker!"

Why do I want to beat seals with clubs? What is this. ;)

To be honest that was just an excuse. I have no idea why I skipped over it. That is my best guess. I have found some crazy stuff on the interwebz while looking in the most mundane places...  Maybe I didn't want to see a video of a seal army with clubs... idk

For example, While trying to find sources of information on tree growth and fire for a paper I came across a map of the world with average penis sizes. I guess trees have wood but I never used that search term. There is worse stuff out there.

seals with clubs and switchpoker both usually have active games.
Seals has the lowest minimum bet.

how is betco.in?

StrikeSapphire has 4 freerolls nightly ($1 @ 7pm & 11pm GMT, $3 @ 8pm & 10pm GMT) - which usually attract a full table, sometimes a bit more. We don't have a lot of ring games, but they do occasionally spring up during peak hours. We also award +5 BTC extra to the top winner (in all casino games, including poker freerolls) at the end of each weekend.

Poker's not our "main thing" - for finding a ring game, Seals is your best bet - but we have an interesting (and different) tounament/freeroll crowd and a friendly atmosphere, and we're pleased to offer an alternative place for Bitcoiners to relax & play.

any info on btc on tilt site?? software seems pro enough for me to deposit but noone online :(

Btcontilt just reopened, they'll need some time. Don't wait to buy your bitcoin bankroll though, you can use them on our (Seals) mediocre software in the meantime.

tbh ill deposit  tomorrow for the 60btc gtd.

im a tourney player and id love to play on btc sites also but seals need to write their own client if they want to grow as a site.

im also a prgrammer so if anyone from seals is thinking about it pm me  8)

BTCOnTilt has a penguin in their logo, making one believe they are Linux friendly. But they only have a Windows client available? Lame.

If you want a warm up, we've got the .1BTC with a 5BTC guarantee in less than 2 hours (Saturday 6pm ET).

Isn't this what btcontilt did?

They lost all their players to Seals it seems.

this is irrelevant, u can't grow as a big poker site and rent software/beg for changes/say im not responsible for hacks and all in all u can't have a web only interface.

seals seems to operate on good reputation/pr and this is good but u can only go so far with it until someone serious enters the market. (obv supposed btc popularity skyrockets but thats out of control)

but be sure that if millions of ppl start to play poker with btc, they wont play on a cheesy flash/java interface

not being mean, seals guyz do their best it seems and i will be playing tomorrow but im just giving advice here

*** full disclosure:  I am a Seals With Clubs pro

but even so, Seals is the only pure BTC online poker site with activity.  Games run almost around the clock in browser-based flash software, instant deposits, and ~ 4 hr withdraws.  We have 3 active tables going right now including a 5 handed 2BTC buy in PLO game, a 3 handed 5 BTC PLO8 game, and a 9-handed lowest stakes possible .2 btc buy in game

I heard on a certain forum you were part owner and they were accusing you(for owning Seals) of being a scammer... ::)
Before you flame me: I know Seals isn't a scam site :)

You guys are underestimating how complex poker client/server applications are.

To answer your question - your best bet at finding ring games is easily with seals, even I like to play there from time to time.  We have free rolls that might be easier to win just on the basis that there is less traffic but honestly still need a lot of work on traffic for ring games

not easier just more frequent...dont mislead non-players ;) unless they are all overlayed

+1 for seals!
