Good News I got contacted by two developers who have been doing a lot of work within blockchain technologies and really knows their stuff.
Both looked over my work and came with a lot of positive comments. They loved my work, and it was fantastic to hear such good vibes from other developers.
They agreed to help me out with a few things that I plan to do in the future with Blockpoker.
Bad News Unfortunately it's not all good news. One of them also found another bug in the card dealing process.
Possibly a very easy fix, maybe a little hard. Not totally sure today, will update once I do.
Now I know many will be pissed, and I am sorry for the mistakes I have made. But this is not an easy task to do, and I am doing absolutely everything I can.
Will need to postpone this a little longer until I have fixed it, sorry again. And will be closing down the thread until I do as I can't take all the hate that will come my way (Just a human..), and it's also not good for the project.
It won't be for long though, I will work day and night.

- Contacting C-Cex today to get them ready, should go fast and easy to get the swap ready.
- Will release software 24 hours after people have been able to swap their CHIPS to BP.
- Please contact if you should have any questions. |

Great to hear development is stil going on!  There has been so many scams in crypto that missing the launch and then being silent for 10 days set the "alarms" on. I will be following development closely, hopefully we will have a launch soon. Keep us updated on the situation! Yeah I kind of get that. But if you checked the blockpoker team account here, you could see I was logged on each day. I did this so people could see I was still active. The reason I did not post anything was because there was not really much to post about. Had to fix the algorithm issue, and before it was done I did not really have to much more to update about. I do today though, so stay tuned |

I got to be honest here, it hurts to see all this negativity get thrown around because of a delay.
But I am aware of how this scene is, developers leave all the time and most in here (including me) have lost money to these failed projects. So I can understand it very well.
Despite the hate, I of course set out to fix the problems. It took me right under two days to correct the visual error, which was a displacement of the avatars when shifting tables under a tournament.
The main problem was within one of the algorithms used to deal the cards, and I have had some long nights this week trying to figure out how to make it right. Basically it opened up a loophole to cheat from.
Difficult to explain in an easy way, but if there are any developers reading here, please hit me up with a PM or email. I would love to have more eyes look at how I handled it and see if anybody else sees something I do not.
However, it's good enough to be released and if I should have overlooked something it will be dealt with.
Due to the delay of release we have changed some of our plans on how to go forward with Blockpoker.
Stay tuned today, there will be dropped more information.

Sorry guys!
Still here but have encountered a couple problems when trying to launch everything off.
Got lost in time desperately trying to fix it before the announced launch time.
So, there is one small problem and one big. The small one I know I can fix within the next 3 hours, its just some visual stuff.
The bigger one I honestly have no idea. It has to do with the dealing of the cards, a little hard to explain.
I am sure I can figure it out, but as you may understand, it will take some time.
Therefore I need to set back the launch date a few days, dont know how long. Will update when I know more.
Again, really sorry about this, and pretty angry right now. This is not good for our project. But I will do my best to get it right.

From my research I believe the bank does not start of with any btc. So for you to be able to sell out your BP in the bank someone needs to buy from there first though..
Ohyes it does. We have chipped in 2.5btc each, so there is 10btc ready to start of the bank with. We are closing in on the last 24 hours! Who are ready to play?! |

General Update
Things are going according to plan. We are still on for launch which is only 2days+ away.
Just double checking some stuff still and making sure everything is ready to be pushed out.I wanted to write a bigger update, but I can't think of anything more to tell you guys right now. Guess that's a good thing though, right?

So this: Wed Dec 23 13:10:04 2015
is the date that everyone is stuck with? If the answer is yes then why don't several people just unlock their wallets?
The Isotope block chain is no longer frozen and solved some blocks again earlier today. Not sure if it was from the CEX wallet or someone else. I'm trying to create enough small inputs to keep the chain moving myself. If anyone has coin in a locked wallet please unlock your wallet so we can get the blockchain moving again. X How is it going with the isotope/chips chain? To be honest I have not cared about it, because the swap will be done directly on C-Cex. And in my mind I have thought that everybody had their chips on there and nobody had anything in their wallets. If there is someone who has coins in the wallet, we of course needs to fix the chain so those people can move their coins to C-Cex. So please raise your hand if you want it fixed! |

Invest a bit of effort in developing a decent looking website. Meaning a professional look and feel. Create trust with your potential customers.
Most definately not advertise with promotional videos such as the one already on the website. It has a kind of 'anonymous' feel to it, why did you choose this kind of approach?
I have no clue what the software looks like, but i feel the UX and speed of the client are most important in order to attract and maintain somewhat of a playerbase. The first blockchain initiative which is a straight copy or very similar to pokerstars or fulltilt will succeed.
I very much like the initiative, gl!
Thanks for the criticism. Too bad you where not happy with the website and video. We gave a good effort in both, so not much more we can do there. I agree 100% with you, need to have it similar to services like Pokerstars so people will feel more comfortable switching. That's what I have been going for |

I see somebody is worried we left. No reason for that. Everything is on schedule and we are ready to launch! Of course we are still here, even if we have not posted anything in the last 30 hours or so. Getting something to eat now, and when I get back I will answer the questions people have been asking in the last 24 hours here on this topic Kevin |

Another Try On Twoplusstwo!We tried this a couple times already. But this time someone wanted to help us out and sent his old account to us. Worthyou, thanks
We also took the time to write up something more authentic and our goal with this thread is to start a discussion about poker software built on blockchain technology over at twoplusstwo. If we can make that happen, a lot more people will check out Blockpoker.If this gets deleted then there is no hope to get blockpoker out for free at twoplusstwo. Not a big deal, because we can pay for a thread in their marketplace which will get a lot more viewers anyway. And not only there, but many forums and websites involving poker in some way. But that will need to wait until we get a little capital to do so. Link - http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/45/software/poker-software-built-blockchain-technology-1578536/Image -

Is there any info when C-Cex is going to do the coin swap?
It would be good if it could be done a couple days before Blockpoker goes live so everone would have BPs ready for launch.
Christmas became a busy time for me, lots of family visits and so on.. So I have not had the time to talk with C-Cex yet. I have lots of time forward from today though, so will come with more information about the subject soon. But, it will most likely be live on 1/1 and it will be as planned. Considering the short time we have. Maybe we can get it done quicker, but can't guarantee that. |

Is there a working block explorer for CHIPS?
I would like to know what is the current amount of CHIPS in circulation.
No, there is not a working explorer for chips. BP will of course have one right away though. The current amount is around 1.5 million, don't know the exact number. |

|
Can we have some screenshots of the poker client? I think many people are interested to see what it looks like. It's only 5 days left before launch, so I don't think there is to much point for that now |
|
|
|
Is 200M BP going to be distributed on the first day? Or over time, if over time, how long of a time?
It will be distributed over 7 days. You can read more at our website - www.blockpoker.org (distribution week) |

I made a thread on Pokerisivut.com about Blockpoker. Pokerisivut is an active finnish poker forum. On my post I mention Blockpoker being the first decentralized poker client and also I made a mention of it being rake free. I also tell how it is blockchain based and that it uses it's own cryptocurrency. http://www.pokerisivut.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=22694
Fantastic!Thanks for the promotion help. Can't tell much from the finnish one since I don't speak the language. But read through the other and it was informative and a really good post! I have written your usernames down and will PM to get a BP address from you guys on 1/1, so I can send some good rewards Kevin |

Can barely hold my eyes open, been a long day. But before I head off to bed, I have some good news for you guys.
I got contacted by C-Cex today, and they offered to do the swap from Smartchips to BP on their exchange!
As mentioned, long day and tired, so I did not have the energy to discuss it further and make any deals with them.
However, it's a no brainer for each side so I can almost say it's a guaranteed that the swap will happen direcly on C-Cex.Good night & merry christmas Kevin

If there is something you don't understand about Blockpoker or there was some aspects where we had little information, I hope the latest news post will have explained some of the things.
Should there be anything else someone wonders about, feel free to contact us |

Links take to "invalid thread specified" page so I'm assuming that those threads got deleted. Maybe you could contact two plus two and cardschat mods and ask how you could post there without the posts being deleted.
Yes I see this :/ I can't really understand it, it was just a user asking for opionins. They shouldnt really delete such things. But they will be contacted today/tomorrow, and we will be going on other forums and posting. Not giving up Remember our offer about BP rewards for helping out with spreading Blockpoker on poker forums, it will be worth your time. |
