This is the second 'What Bitcoin Did' tournament, previous one was in April and had over 500 participants again with 1BTC prize pool.

The difference being this one has 2mBTC buy-in, the other one was a freeroll. Cheaters can't get in now, can't afford to enter with +20 accounts, hahahaa I FUCKING LOVE IT.

As for the Watford jersey, i really need that blue-ish away jersey (don't forget to claim it on the whatbitcoindid website).

Looking to see some of the regular poker players we have join this tourney, cya Sunday!

Dont remember what their away jersey looked like, I guess it has been too long since the hornets have played.
I did like the GK salmon colored one to add to a collectors framed ones behind glass.

Wish I could join but learning to play poker in three days and expecting to win anything isnt possible.
Or I would be in this round since 1BTC prize pool doesnt come by every week.

Also have added the prizes to be given out during my giveaway thread.

So for those who haven't had the thrill of playing on the sportsbet.io site now is your chance to get a wallet ($100 value) on me!

So glad that there is another 1BTC Poker Tourney and this time cheaters won't be there as in the last one we had so many afk's or going all in with cards like 3/6 or J/2 against their own account. Glad this time we have 2mbtc entry buy in and I wish you all good luck and see you Sunday lads <3.

Also don't jump only on Home T/Shirts as the Away ones are also super awesome with that blue color on them. Once again , Steve and Sportsbet are doing amazing job for the community. Thanks.

A big big weekend ahead and good luck!

awesome, i'll be there. i assume there will be a very nice overlay with most of the freeroll hunters gone.

good timing too since we're in between series in our bitcointalk poker league---no games happening this weekend.

thanks, steve. see everyone on sunday!

[Steamtyme]

Well count me in. I'll fund up and get prepped. Thank to the sportbet team for keeping us little old forum folk in mind when there is a big prizepool kicking around.

Wife gave me the go ahead simply for the shirt. More a gag with a british broadcaster she listens to. See everyone there Sunday.

[ajvar89]

also joined..

freerolls curenty barely playable .. some new guy came in this week i think.. i think 15-20 accounts share the same owner or they are playing like a group.. i hope 2 mbtc buy in will be enough to stop him/em from joining in on sunday tour ..
good luck everyone

Can sportsbet verify the Ip's of where they login during the tourney ? In this way we can find those who are cheating easily. It seems that all of us wants a TShirt and no wonder why as this shirts will become legends in the next coming years , trust me.

Regarding football , did anyone watched the crazy game between Valencia and Levante ? Penalty in the last minute of the game ? That was insane and awesome to watch and I'm glad I did not bet on them haha cause I would have lost thinking that Valencia will win easily and with more than 3 goals scored.

Games in Turkish Super League is starting as well, this is going to be tough because there has been a lot of trouble in Turkey regarding not just the pandemic but also sports figures talking against the political parties about how they were played well into pandemic and were risked just to get more money from teams. Most notably the goalkeeper Fernando Muslera talked about how he didn't want to play because he didn't feel like his health was protected and said "if people are in lockdown, why aren't we? Aren't we just as human as them?"

So, now that it is coming back, I want to see what will change and if there will be any political response to it and any shady stuff going on towards players who criticized the ruling party, which as we all know is a dictatorship and could probably make life harder for anyone who opposes them in anything.

Very strange case with sportsbet.io right now

Playing there for over years, never had problems until now

The live support is very ignorant, they dont reply to my questions. Only the standard answers.

I am missing about 23mbtc which Sportsbet will not credit which is against their rules and against the rules of fair play.

EDIT: Case solved. I got the missing ammount

Don't worry about your 23 mBTC just try to reach out support hopefully this will sort out very quickly as they are giving many giveaways more then 23 mBTC so they will never cheat with you just calm and patience is key for you try again with support.

I'm comatose from all the football betting guys, doing so-so, bundesliga ripped me new holes but La Liga's so far ok, we'll see;) Missed out on a SB special last night on Ronaldo to score first too. Boo!

Steve, you guys keep outdoing yourselves! Huge prize to play for, the buy in is completely peanuts when you look at the 1 BTC prize pool. I'm not going to play, have a family thing tomorrow evening, I will be in the doghouse for years if I cancel that for poker =p

Good luck everyone, let's see if you can play poker and watch La Liga at the same time;)

[Trofo]

Good luck everyone, let's see if you can play poker and watch La Liga at the same time;)

That is the plan for tomorrow, we will see how successful I'll be. Will probably put some money on Sociedad or both to score market to make it more interesting.

I actually play better poker while watching something on other screen. That way I can fold so-so hands without overthinking it much. If I am "just" playing poker I find myself calling way to often.

[boltz]

Anyone having problems accessing sportsbet or just me ? I know there was a flash maintenance on the website but that is no longer the case... . Anyway, I know they will be back soon as they are top website with top devs and top mangers.

Predictions : All bundesliga over 0.5 half time. Wish me luck guys.

PS : Website is working fine <3

[buwaytress]

@Trofo: I mistakenly thought Steve's MM was on Espanyol today but when I saw your reply remembered that yeah it's actually Sociedad. Funny too, I play poker better when it's "for fun" -- when I'm focusing I'm calling practically any hand I get, even if it's on a raise. So far so good on my parlay today, Werder Bremen made it look easy by HT. Now I just need Conte to put Gattuso out of his misery...

@boltz: ouch on your 0.5 HT. Haaland took his time!

The conversation is like this

Bayern won in Germany few minutes ago, but it was not really a good game. At the end, who cares.. a win is a win.

ya.ya.yo!

Well, I am not going to lie a 20 bucks entry fee is normally a hefty one, not that I doubt sportsbet wouldn't find anyone to join, you guys will definitely find a way to fill that tournament easily, however I assume all the people who will join will be the people who knows about poker very well.

I personally do not really know poker enough to risk that much money for the tournament, plus dollars are very high in my nation so that would be like 4 dinner price for me and I rather not risk it . Prizes are 1 bitcoin total plus 500 jerseys which I think is very cool and a HUGE amount but what is the distribution looks like? I couldn't find that on the link, it says 1 bitcoin total but it doesn't say anything about what the first one or second or whatever gets.

You can see that part on the site when you check tournament under prizes tab. Actual prizes depend on the number of people that join the tournament. More people means more paid places means smaller individual prizes.

At the moment there is 18 players and prizes as follows:
1. 40% - 0.4BTC
2. 30% - 0.3BTC
3. 20% - 0.2BTC
4. 10% - 0.1BTC

For example if there is 37-50 players which seams reasonable to me, first place will be 0.29BTC and and 9th place will be last paid one with prize of 0.04BTC.

[boltz]

I think tomorrow a lot of players will register for the poker tourney and the prizes will go down on placed a little more but even so, lets be glad that we can play into 1BTC tourney with 2mbtc entry buy in.

Regarding football and la liga , nothing went good for me today as I lost 2 tickets on 1 goal ...1 on dortmund and another one in Poland 2nd division so no more betting for me until tomorrow. Yea dude , crazy win on bayern in the last minute of the game and the title goes to them another year as Dortmund did not deserve it to be honest with this lame game today.

37-50 would be reasonable. i would be very surprised if there was 100+ runners based on their normal traffic, so i'm expecting at least 0.018 BTC guaranteed for the lowest payout ladder, probably more.

overlay guaranteed tournaments tend to bring out way less players than freerolls so this should be pretty EV+.

then again, the watford jersey incentive is also there so we'll see.
