I can help you guys out with talking about blockpoker on some poker forums I am a member of.
Have some knowledge about these forums and think I can bring blockpoker out there

Hello!

Yesterday I saw a post on cardschat mentioning blockpoker. Guess I was lucky since I see the topic got deleted.. But I really found this project interesting.
The big rake that pokerservices takes are the big problem with internet poker.
So I have been reading up on the website and it sent me here where I have been reading more.

Have knowledge of Bitcoin, actually invested some in it a few months back. Have no knowledge about anything besides it though.. Like, I have never been on this forum.
The reason I am posting here is because I am really interested in this project and would very much like to play in the week where the team is distributing some of the coins.

From what I have understood, I either need to buy some smartchips or wait until 1/1 and buy from the service itself, to be able to play from the start.
The bank sounds like the easiest and safest way to go about this, but when I can get many more coins from buying early I feel like I have to make an effort here.

Could some of you that are more familiar with all this give me a few details on how I should go about this, and if I should bother or just wait until 1/1.
Thinking mostly of where I can buy these smartchips (assume an exchange?), if so, is it safe?

Thanks and merry Christmas! See you guys on the tables
