Why did the buying pressure suddenly stop? People were buying like crazy. What happened?
Oh wait, idiot scum traders were dumping on everyone who dared to buy and take the price up.
Well done on killing possibly the last uptrend of the year within 2 days.
Traders are Bitcoin's cancer.
National holiday yesterday (Friday) for Bitfinex's bank in Taiwan and bank holiday (Columbus Day) in US on Monday should choke incoming FIAT to the exchanges till Tuesday. |

Yep, just bought BTC locally from an online poker player. He had a ton of BTC won a few hundred ago he needed converted to cash. And with Bitfinex not processing wires yesterday due to a holiday in Taiwan, it became the perfect match.
I sent the BTC to Bitfinex and converted it to FIAT for more play money. Cheaper than a wire.
I haven't played play money in over 10 years, but I've heard the highest limit play money games now actually have people who try to play well. Then again, the people who told me this are of questionable ability, themselves, so maybe that's just relative to them. Who knows? I'll never find out because I didn't get as good at poker as I am to not make money when I play it. |

And I think, he's gonna use the money for speculation, catching falling knives, bottom picking, you know, fun stuff. Play means fun to me. Personally, I found that playing poker to win is not actually fun, at least not as fun as seeing your low-ball bid get filled during a flash crash. But that's just me. |

Canadian Thanksgiving this Monday lol I tried that option for the first time just yesterday, not sure how long it took as I went for lunch and when i got back the money was there, definitely less than two hours. Do you know if it's like seconds? Minutes? Half an hour? |

It is quite possible I misunderstood what he was saying, I had assumed he meant purchasing play money on Pokerstars, but that's probably only because podyx mentioned Pokerstars so it was in my head. Since I have nothing to add if he's going in another direction than I interpreted, there's no real point in editing the other post. EDIT: Oh, and I completely understand and respect the opinion that playing poker for profit is not fun, but it's what works for me as a competitive person. Everyone plays for different reasons, and I don't judge those who play for recreation. |
