[ssaCEO]

StrikeSapphire.com announces: New hourly and nightly NL Holdem freerolls!

Yeah, we're the same StrikeSapphire who founded your first Bitcoin casino in 2011.

We've never gone offline. But we did stop promoting poker for a long time, while we waited for the market to figure itself out.

Anyway, we're back. As before, no US players, and no VPNs. Everyone else is invited to join. If you've never tried our platform before, you're in for a nice surprise 
 
Don't neglect to check out all our original slots and multiplayer blackjack / roulette / craps while you're there! And good luck to tonight's poker champions!!!!

What is the prize for the freerolls? I just discovered it, for hourly ($0,50) and for the night one $5

[ssaCEO]

Yeah. Thank you for adding that.

I think it's a bit better than what Nitrogen is offering at the moment, considering there are very few players active on our site. But we're not trying to take players away from them, just bring some people home to enjoy the rest of what we have to offer. It's been a long time since we've hosted a friendly poker game. So let's have some fun

Are players required to provide their IDs etc. to play? I am at sign up page and I read something at the bottom which says something along the lines that players are required to verify their identity, location and nation of residence prior to making the first deposit. I want to confirm this before even making an account because I won't be able to provide any of that and I wouldn't want to deposit and risk my funds being stuck there for the lack of the same.

It doesn't allow me to play without an ID, I'm not going to give it to this site for just some freerolls.

Our concern is that we cannot take American players. If you are not in the USA then in general you don't have to worry about this. However, we do reserve the right to ask for ID in some circumstances. If our system flags you for an ID check it would usually be before you would even be able to join a freeroll, let alone make a deposit. In any case, you do not have to deposit to play in a freeroll.

We do not freeze player deposits. However, if you are physically located in the US and try to play through a VPN, then you should expect to be asked for ID and if it doesn't check out, then yes, you can expect to have your winnings nullified.

As long as you're not coming from the US, you're fine. Hope that clears it up.

I see, so the rule is there to not let US players play but if you get suspicious of someone then you might ask from them to provide their credentials and if they can't then they're done and they won't be able to access their accounts until and unless they play along. I guess it's fair because you have to conduct your business under the legal terms but usually most of the poker players/gamblers are from their so it will be hard to fill up the tables without no US players.

Just registered and so amazed there is no one online on the poker game. Even there is no one registered on the freerolls both hourly and nightly...

Normal, he requires to upload an ID to play freerolls. I have played and cashed out in pokerstars and they haven't asked for my ID, and with a paypal.

He wants people to upload an ID but he doesn't have legal license to operate in any country or data protection measures. I thought bitcoin had no frontiers.

Is that true, we need to upload ID just to play freerolls? I have registered in the nightly freeroll, but they did not ask me to upload ID. It's weird then..

According to OP's reply in post #6, you will be requested to do an ID check only if their system thinks you are from US and are using a VPN. Not sure how good their system is and how many false positive will there be though.

System randomly flags people for an ID check depending on their location. That's enough to scare anybody away! You accept Bitcoin but you're asking for id? Lol.

are we really have to give  our ID? would like to try it if we're not

[nikona]

Why don't all the sites combine and organize a common poker game rather than making so many different poker sites ?

None of them seem to be profitable and hardly anyone has enough traffic to play on , since each split up the traffic.
