It's about as possible as working as a professional chess player or golf player and living off the profits -- possible, but not easy. But make no mistake: poker is a game of skill, easy to learn but difficult to master.

Hi, I noticed that http://livebitcoinpoker.com/ is not on your list, yet this site ranks highly on google using the search terms 'bitcoin poker'. Does anyone know if this site is legitimate? If not, perhaps you could list it as a scam or whatnot, given it's google ranking.

Hi, when I try to connect to www.satoshipoker.org over https, Firefox produces the following message:

First impression of this site: very good overall, but the interface reminds me a bit of the control panel on the starship Enterprise --  lots of confusing buttons. It's not immediately clear what they all do, but now that my eyes have adjusted things are making a bit more sense.  Question: is there some way to manually set the client seed?

I noticed this also. Firefox takes up a larger-than-normal chunk of system resources when I'm playing blackjack:

Thanks. I finally ended up installing bitcoin-qt from source per the following blog post:
http://www.ripplex.biz/blog/compiling-bitcoin-on-centos-v6-4

Seems to be working fine for me. FYI.  I tried to open a support ticket at RedHat.com requesting that they add bitcoin-qt, but it looks like only paying customers are allowed to do that Sad

Hi,  The official CentOS repository doesn't appear to contain an RPM package for bitcoin-qt. Anyone know why? 
I found a couple third party RPMs, but I'm not quite sure I trust them. The alternative would be to install from source, but I'm trying to avoid that. Any suggestions?
