I'm wondering if any regular BTC poker players are playing here? Guys, what is your experience? If I'm already playing at Fortunejack, SWC, and Nitrogen, is there some reason to try this place out?
I've been playing online for many years, did Black Friday and co, played on the old SwC right after Micon launched it and in general I believe that playing bitcoin poker is the most convenient solution.
Playing on Cyberdeck since the beta launch last year and liking it a lot. Traffic is low but they just officially soft-launched earlier this year and afaik they have been working out network-wide adjustments during this time.
I think what the site needs most is that those of us who like playing on there show some support by re-tweeting CDP and by inviting some of the poker players some of us might know. in general, engage with the site, give it some exposure. The software is great, games are good and the MTT schedule is attractive but lacking players. I also think that Cyberdeck has shown that they are consistent in what they are doing and very transparent.
I logged in and played here a couple weeks ago, and it was a bit slow, or I just hadn't logged in at the right time. What is the freeroll schedule like over the next few days. Generally I would play a couple of those to get my feet wet.
At the moment Freerolls only run Thursday - Sunday Sandy explained in this thread how the tournament schedule works and she also said that it's not Cyberdeck's goal to cater to players who do not rake or don't deposit. Scroll back because as a raking player I like their approach.
The freerolls are important but they seem to get scrapped and I tend to check once and be done for the day.
Noticed they are not getting enough people again and that must be due to infrequency of schedule. Hopefully that gets addressed on launch day.
They didn't get scrapped. The have been running on the above days consistently for many weeks. I understand that the schedule is reset every Monday for reconciliation with the network and recalculation because the guarantees are backed by Cyberdeck when they go up, so they are not operating on player funds (big +). I think Sandy also said that they are adding new tournaments with guarantees network wide but perhaps that wasn't in this thread. She also said that they would make adjustments because most of the players in the freeroll are only cashing out, don't rake and never made a deposit. For a poker network that's a big no no and raking players should feel the same. Players like that drain the ecosystem, they don't contribute to it.
For all I care scrap the freerolls or have a weekly new players freeroll and add cash game point buy-in's to all other bonus tournaments. I'd rather see CDP rewarding raking players than those who don't.
Evildrum, you have a crypto exchange? Make a deposit and play some real poker
Edit: Sandy, please promote OFC and NL ring games more. I think you could put foot into the OFC niche since it's quite popular among players and plays well on your site.
