Site possibly downgraded for being popular and unstable software? That is something we never considered but probably should be discussed.. The software provided is similar to playing video games from Attari or Nintendo in the 90's. We highly recommend the software is upgraded to one of many premium poker software's available in the online poker industry. We have sent an email in regards to what is currently available for lease from several top poker organizations.
If you was a poker player who was booted out of the tournament and feel you did you receive a proper credit based on players left and your position please file a complaint and we will go from there.
Is this passive oppourtunistic trolling? I think so. Begone.

I am a bit pissed right now. ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif) I played at the 50/50 cash game, just to try it out. Lost a full bitCoin there to one bad beat after another. Felt very dis-honest. And I have been through many bad beat streaks. I expect I will be compensated for this hand? And if you want a return customer, I would like my 1000 chips back, but I am not going to hold my breath. Needless to say I have lost a lot of confidence in your site now. ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) Looks like they fixed the problem... But a bit of advice. If you don't want to see bad beats don't play this game. This is just a flip fest. And weird stuff happens. Pre hand is very different than pre flop in this game.

Why not use a piss bottle? Even with break times it is useful as you don't even have to wait for the break.

The Poker Action Flop Theory in Online NL Texas Holdem Tournaments
... Cut an enormous pile of heebus jeebus about how its not your fault you're a losing jerk at poker... The fact you believe this garbage is solid proof that you are a losing fish. 1. You don't need a conspiracy to create poker train wrecks. A pure RNG does that perfectly already. 2. Poker sites (like seals) have a gigantic incentive to have the fairest games with as perfect a RNG as they can get. They do not NEED to create money hands. Poker does this naturally. What this stupid article is is placation for losers. You need to believe good players get ripped off and bad ones are rewarded. Because if not... Yup. You are a fish. I'd say take up checkers.

Fraking moron CAPSLOCK

Getting sick and tired of the doucbag beats.
Just got back from the WSOP. Between live cash, tournaments at WSOP, Binions, Nugget and Pokerstars, I'm 3 for 22 of my most recent all-in's where I was at least an 80% favorite. (haven't been on seals in a month or so). That's poker. You are going to have those runs, on any site, in any cardroom, in any format. Shhhhhhhhh! That ruins the rigged narrative.

Is the site stable again? I pulled my roll after the last batch of instability and have Only played a couple free rolls and a 10 cent tourney or two... Seems better? Anyone having trouble?

About ten minutes, given his poker ability.
You are so very unpleasant. I would never have anything to do with your business. You know lots of us feel this way.

The WSOP is an all encompassing time of ultimate busyness for poker players. Its like trying to get the attention of a CPA the week before April 15th in the USA.
I don't think the winners of this bet are at any risk As if it goes too long the escrow will settle it, and it is not unreasonable to expect some time for Micon to research the claims.
If you do ask the escrow to settle it you should expect he will have to do the same research.

So for now at least...
So long, and thanks for all the fish.
hit me personally, I would hate to lose a frequent player of any sort. Also, Android app just version'd Should be all good across the 3 ways to play Well all my drama aside, I always reserve the right to come donking straight back once I feel my bets will be secure and not at risk for bugs and disconnects. Obviously the added traffic and perhaps some negative attention (script kids, haters etc) have made keeping everything smooth harder. And I hope reports that the server move has made a major difference are true and hold up. That said. An implementation of disconnect protection might also be a good thing. I KNOW that would be complicated to implement especially across 3+ clients. It is one thing to have a tourney fee paid back. It might be disappointing to those in the tourney, but it is fair and doable. My perspective is seeing a nut/nut PLO8 hand show up and shoving the turn just to see it lock up, scramble to log back in and see myself down a stack when I should have been up chips. Disconnect protection seems like the best solution for cash games and would work well for tourneys too! love, cAPS

I've been thinking about it and I just don't see how the seals deals site and functionality does anything that could be construed as shady. I cannot see how this would offer an unfair advantage to any single player. In fact the only advantage is it offers are available to anyone who would like to use it.

I ask that all players please stick with us and you will see the SwC you know and love restored soon, and pumped up huge fantastic early next yr.
I have a great deal of respect for the folks behind seals. For me though... I had an event which makes it difficult for me to continue. I was having a bad session which was compounded by three lockups/timeout type situations. I lost quite a bit of money that session, so it was both expensive and demoralizing. Since I play mostly for fun i don't have logs and hand histories and so on so I have no way to prove what money was lost due to lagging out with the nuts. But I am pretty sure it would have made a -300bb session a break even one. I simply cannot afford to light fire to 40 or 50 bucks at a time. Perhaps meaningless to some of you, but not to me. That said, I love seals and hope it gets through this asap. I just can't place bets knowing at any moment I'll lose my money due to crashes, lockups and lagging out. So for now at least... So long, and thanks for all the fish.

poker is bad enough not being rigged, and your site is rigged.
I imagine so. I am surprised you play rigged poker at all considering how bad you get raped at fair poker...
|
|

most poker sites have table with stakes starting from $0.02/$0.04, so you can see what it is in BTC
Seals stakes start at about 0.03/0.06. Nice and mini micro.
|
|

I also think there should be really micro, microstakes for newbies. Considering that even 50 chips is now basically $7.50, there is nothing like penny stakes on Seals any more. I know a lot of people on Stars, including names you'd know, graduated out of the penny stakes there. Bitcoin poker should have something similar.
.25/.50 tables are a $6.50 buyin and .03/.06 blinds more or less. I mean even the 2nl stakes on stars let you buy in deep... its pretty close. And there are .10 tourneys. That's a buck thirty. How much cheaper do you want it?

I have in the past suggested things to SWC and they did not listen so I don't expect that they will think this is a good idea. Their ego's are too big to accept and implement any suggestions which is why they are doomed to fail. Control freaks never get far in life because they are blind.
How about whiny little girls. How do they fare in life?

Thought I'd try my hand at crystal ballin'
We will soon see an increase in volume and a move up to at least 135.
That is all.
Well then... Now it tests... If it holds it will build a new base near here.

Freerolls meant to be a way for talented players to build the bankroll necessary to start grinding the fish-pool, not bang bang to have one or three random winner every time, making thoughtful hate poker. With all due respect I kind of disagree. I think freerolls are best to feed chips into the micros. Let the newer players win some chips and when you play some low limit cash games they can come donk them off to you there. Those games are soft enough. Or play the 10c tourneys. They are not super turbos, tend to be 25 players or less and pay out even a bit better than the freeroll. Even with a single table. They actually play like poker too, even down at this limit.

Little test here, but I think short lived... But we will see.
