1  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Super Bitcoin Fork on: November 19, 2017, 07:02:32 PM
Anyone know anything about the upcoming Super Bitcoin fork? Just saw a video on this site:  https://news.bitcoin.com/

Thanks everyone!

Hello All, does anyone know the status of the cryptsy.com class action lawsuit? I filled out the form and made my claim and have heard nothing since.

If you watch the 52 character private key. You will see that it is similar to Bitcoin Cash and Segwit Address Private key. And all of them will be processed by the Bitcore as a typical bitcoin core/classic wallet so just sit back and relax don't make more wallets and subwallets

So then which wallet address in my Core wallet will get the Bit Gold and B2X since all the coins seem to be in none of my wallets based on the blockchain.info website? If the coins are in change wallets, where do I see the addresses of these change wallets?
5  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Blockexplorer.com (S) Output is spent on: October 15, 2017, 02:54:28 AM
Hello, when I copy and paste my wallet address on Blockexplorer.com and look at some of my transactions I see the (S) and when I mouse over it, it reads 'Output is spent'. What does that mean?

Looks like this right above the boxes that show the number of confirmations and the BTC sent:  0.3043 BTC (S)

Also, what does (U) output is unspent mean?
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bit Gold fork question on: October 14, 2017, 10:55:29 PM
I need to attach a pic but don't see anywhere to attach. I sent 1 BTC as a test to myself and under recent transactions it doesn't show the 1 BTC but shows a transaction dated with (n/a) next to it with a very small piece of BTC so probably the transaction fee. Why doesn't the 1 BTC transaction that I sent to myself show up in my transactions in either the Overview or Transactions tabs?
7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bit Gold fork question on: October 14, 2017, 10:02:30 PM
Thank you very much. Also, why does the blockchain.info show 0 as my final balance in all of my wallet addresses when I copy and paste but my balance when my Core wallet is fully synched it shows the full balance? I have sent coins back and forth to Bittrex to trade. Does this have something to do with change wallets? Seems kinda scary that I'm getting this conflicting information.
8  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bit Gold fork question on: October 14, 2017, 09:57:32 PM
So as long as there are coins in one of my addresses within my Core Wallet then I will get the Bit Gold reward after it happens?
9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Bit Gold fork question on: October 14, 2017, 09:17:26 PM
If I have a Core wallet with a bunch of sub wallets within it that I created within it, do each of those sub wallets have their own private key?

Also, I have moved the coins from the original wallet address that was generated when I downloaded the Core wallet to a subwallet after the BCC fork. So I am curious if I should create a new subwallet again to move all my coins to so I can make sure to get my Bit Gold reward. Or to be safe should I download a brand new Core wallet and move all the coins over to that new Core wallet? Please advise and thanks fellas.

Missed the money by a few hundred places unfortunately. I got tangled in to a pot with one of the chip leaders in the tournament that was at my table. I'm not sure that I could have ever folded those pocket kings preflop. It's just unfortunate that the guy had aces. Oh well, there's always next year. I love that Bitcoin has been going up the whole time I'm in Vegas though. Maybe it's on a big uptrend now. Thanks again guys for rooting me on. I played my heart out and tried my very best!


Good job Beamer , you did your work and the cards did their work
there is always a next year

Thanks Sy! I appreciate all your positive energy and support.

Hello ranlo, I definitely agree with you on the positive points you've made about playing online tournaments. However, in order to make a massive impact through poker, I would need to be playing live in the larger live events like the WSOP, WPT, etc. The $10K+ buy in events are the ones that get all the worldwide attention and make TV. These are the ones that I feel need to be targeted for exposure to help bring much more awareness to Bitcoin. All I need to do is win one of these events or make the TV final table and this should get it going.

Bad luck bro! All you can do is to give it your best. Practise hard & get ready for next year. Same again, I will sponsor you next year.

Thanks LFC! Smiley

Out of curiosity, since this flopped (maybe pun intended), do you have a full listing of your recent track record in other tournaments, and would you be interested in staking for other tournaments as well?

Hello ranlo, fortunately or unfortunately depending on how you view it, I don't have a recent history for poker tournaments. I played semi-professionally for about 7 solid years (1999-2006) before deciding to give up poker as a job while running my business. I've played with the best players in the world both online and live and they were my professors of the game. Even when I quit, some of the best pros offered to back me and put me in to tournaments but I had to decline. The problem was that it put too much strain on my business life and personal life. After quitting poker for a couple years (which was not easy), my wife said that she had no problem with me playing during the WSOP every year. So then I played every other year or so after that depending on my finances. What's great about poker is that the experience you gain from it stays with you forever. Although it's good to be seasoned and in the game playing full time, sometimes taking a big break from the game makes a player become greater and play at a much higher level. You truly never forget the prior experiences you've learned and after all this time, I consider myself to be a much more developed person in life which only improves my play at the poker table. They say life is poker and poker is life. I've had several humbling years to rethink my game and life itself. One other thing to consider is that poker is a volume game. The reason that you see many of the greatest players winning tournaments and making final tables is because they play so many events. Eventually each of those pro players has a great run and finishes well which makes them the most well known players in poker today.

After finding out about Bitcoin a couple years ago, I fell in love with it. I haven't gotten rich as a result of it but really like the idea of it and would like to help promote it. I feel that it's the wave of the future. The key thing we all need for Bitcoin is some good ambassadors to help promote it through many channels, not just poker. I'd like to be one of those ambassadors through poker but would need some backing. If there are any Bitcoiners out there that agree that my idea is good and want to back me then feel free to have them contact me. Sorry that I don't have any recent play history but I can assure you that I am not only a solid player but also have the will and personality to get the job done. Regarding other tournaments, depending on the circumstances yes I would consider playing more larger events. It just has to make sense for everyone.

Watching... Good luck man! I don't know how I missed this initial thread... we surely would have donated enough to get your to wear a BitcoinRush.io  Hat!

Thank you and are you all in Vegas and does your hat have a Bitcoin logo on it? Please feel free to PM me a proposal and if it's a Bitcoin hat we can talk.

Guys, yesterday the cameras were at my table because Brad Garrett from Everybody Loves Raymond was there. We put on a good show and if they show any footage, there's a chance of getting on TV.

Today is Day 3 and they are estimating that we will be in the money towards the end of Day 3. I'm hoping that with the field thinning that I will be able to get on a featured table. Fingers crossed. Blinds and antes are getting high so I'm going to need to catch some cards to stay alive. Please keep sending me some good mojo & let's BELIEVE!

P.S. Bitcoin is up a lot today. GO GO BITCOIN GO!

Hello All, I finished Day 1 of the WSOP Main Event with 109K in chips! Now I just need to get on a featured table. Wish me luck on Day 2!!

great job bro , you have a nice start with these chips
what is the avg chips now ? and how many entrants we have this year ?
I hope that they will move you to a featured table , let's show our orange coin in the screens
BTW if you see Kara Scott tell her that SyGambler misses you  Grin
Good luck mate

You can find all that information here : http://www.wsop.com/tournaments/chipcounts.asp?rr=5&grid=1136&tid=14268&dayof=
109K chips on day one is a good start and he is currently at 61st place , but still the event has 5000 players remaining.


hes only 61st for day1c so hes probably around 200th place right now still not bad, long time more to go gl.
Yup a long way to go, but still a good standing since he said half of the field is already out.
@bitcoinbeamer how does the featured table get decided ?

ESPN picks them and usually finds tables where big names pro's like Phil Ivey, Phil Hellmuth, etc., are and then they move that table to the featured table. So if a big name pro is at my table then there's a chance that it could turn into a featured table.

Thanks Fellas! I'm going to take it easy today so this horse can rest up. Today we have a break and I play tomorrow. So its gonna be a massage and spa day to calm the nerves for Day 2. The online site is not fully updated as after day 1 there is only about 3,500 players remaining. If any of you are close to Vegas, feel free to come by and be my cheering section. I brought some extra shirts just in case. I can use all the good mojo that I can get! Guys, this really might happen and could be HUGE for all of us!! Smiley

Could u show us your T-shirt? Wow congrats dude, 61th place is good cos there are thousands of players there. I am sorry I didn't have any btc one week ago, so I couldn't donate 1 btc to you, if you goes to the final table, those people who helped you to gather the fund will be fucking rich in the future, haha.

Hello Fox, its the same shirt as I am wearing on the Bitcoin Beamer Facebook and Twitter pages. Here's links to both:
