luckco.in, the social bitcoin casino [CLOSED]

[abrkn]

luckco.in will be shutting down by the end of April. Withdraws are still possible.

I had a couple of issues right after signing up.

The first hand I played showed me my 5 cards.  I clicked 2 of them (a pair I wanted to hold) then before I did anything else, all 5 cards turned face down, as if the hand was over.

The second hand I played popped up an error message in the bottom right of the screen.  It disappeared before I could screenshot it, but it said something about being unable to call method 'push' or something or other.

After that the game seemed to lock up.  I could type into the chat box, but my messages weren't displayed.

I reloaded the webpage, and since then everything worked fine.  I even hit a full house at one point, but eventually ran out of free chips.

The game itself runs pretty well once it's working.  I think I'd like to see 'DEAL' change to 'REDEAL' or some such different word to make it clear whether I'm on my 1st or 2nd deal.

Provable fairness is notably lacking and is a feature that lots of bitcoin casinos are implementing these days.  The ability to prove that you're dealing a fair game is attractive.

I'd like to be able to set my name in the chat rather than the auto-generated name it's using for me.

That's about all for now though.  Thanks for the free chips.  The quiz is a nice touch to keep people on the site.

I notice the deposit popup says:

Minimum 0.001 BTC (one credit). It can take some minutes before you get credited

These 'some minutes' - are you waiting for a confirmation?  It would be nice if you were more explicit about what the delay is for, whether you accept 0-confirmation deposits but don't allow withdrawals until they're confirmed, etc.

I got a good hand, like two aces, and some other pair, for double pair, and immediately it played out without holding the cards.
And I lost 5 credits :/

Well some reworking is needed

Was that the first time you played after signing up?  That's the only time I've had a problem like that in the 128 hands I've played.

I like the quizzes every 10 minutes to let players win 10 free chips.  I like the live chat and alerts about people's wins.

I like it when I hit 4 of a kind...  



Edit: even better!

[dooglus]

When I hit withdraw, it assumes I want to withdraw as much as possible.  That might not be the case.

You are withdrawing 34 credits

Note that this is lower than your balance because of a 116 credit play requirement from a bonus

To which bitcoin address?

It would be better if it asked for an amount as well as an address.  Have it tell me how much is available, but let me type a number up to that amount.

[dooglus]

I got 10 chips for signing up and saying 'welcome bonus' or similar in the chat.

Then I lost it all before managing to bet the 10x wagering requirement.

Then I won another 10 chips in a quiz, and found that my wagering requirement was now at 168 or something.

I think when my balance reaches zero any old wagering requirement should be cleared.  Otherwise I'm better off just making a new account.  An old account with zero balance but positive wagering requirement is worth less than nothing...

I managed to clear my WR and withdraw more than I deposited, so I'm happy anyway, but thought I should mention the above. 

[dooglus]

i did consider the zeroing out of wagering requirement if balance reaches zero. would that be easily abusable?

I don't see how.  I can already effectively reset it by making a new account.

Nah, it was about the 10th hand or so.

I just had a game freeze up on me.

I had been offline for a few hours, then got back online, clicked 'deal', got a couple of queens, held the two queens, clicked 'deal' again, and saw an error box pop up in the bottom right.  It was too quick for me to screenshot it, but here's how the screen looked after it had gone.  I tried talking in the chat box, but my message didn't go through:



Then, while I was typing this message, the screen updated to look like this:



I didn't get to see my new hand, but judging by the balance it looks like I got a 3rd queen.  The "THREE OF A KIND" line isn't white like it would normally be after a win though, so I don't know what happened.  I think that's my name it is welcoming in the chat, so maybe it thinks I only just joined, whereas really I've already played a game before the welcome message showed up.  And it's not normal to see the 'backs' of cards except before your first game.

[dooglus]

I got the error message again.  Again it was on the first hand after I'd taken a break for an hour or two, and again it was after I had decided which cards to hold, and clicked 'deal' for the 2nd time.

This time I was quick enough to grab a screenshot:

[nobbynobbynoob]

I got this error too, once.

[dooglus]

Here's a weird one:



I got it right on my very first guess, but it wasn't picked up.

The other guy in the chat saw it though, and commented on it:

[🏰 TradeFortress 🏰]

Wow, you're the guy who wasted my time by hiding from irc after we agreed to a deal.

[dooglus]

Wow, you're the guy who wasted my time by hiding from irc after we agreed to a deal.

Are you talking to me?  If so I can't imagine what deal you're talking about.  I sometimes try to buy BTC for PayPal on #bitcoin-otc but recently have had very little luck.  Unsurprisingly, I guess.

[dooglus]

There's a display bug that seems pretty reproducible.

I play for 3 chips per hand.  If I get a straight on the first deal and hold all 5 cards, it adds 5*4 to my balance, then takes off 2*4.

For example, I had 109 chips after starting the hand.  I held all 5 cards, hit deal, and saw my balance update to 129 and then after half a second or so update again to 121.

I've noticed this happen at least 3 times now.  I think maybe it only happens when I've held all 5 cards.

[dooglus]

I just discovered a bug in the withdraw code.  I had a balance of ~160, and a Wagering Requirement of 60.  I clicked 'withdraw' and then 'withdraw' again without putting in a bitcoin address.

It took 100 (or so) chips off my balance leaving me with 60, but didn't (of course) send me the other 100.

The game operator was online at the time so I reported the issue to him there.  He's unable to fix it at the moment, so he's taken the game down until he can:

[abrkn]

There was an issue with withdrawing BTC to invalid/empty addresses. The fix is live

Tradefortress, I've looked over the IRC logs and it seems we are on very different time zones when you've tried to reach me. E-mail me at any time, a@abrkn.com.
