I would just like to second the comments there.

I would encourage players that like the site to actively promote it in other forums and by word of mouth to other players. In some of the most popular forums I cannot mention the site without first setting up a dedicated software thread. This is expensive and that money would be better spent on freerolls. Rake and entry fees on the site are low, deposits and withdrawals are fast, a perfect combination for grinding poker.

In the meantime, there will continue to be small stakes freeroll tournaments during the week so feel free to log in and check what's coming up.

All of the games are available at all stakes, if anyone has a favourite game & stakes that's not offered please mention. The same goes for tournaments. Fast structure, slow structure, deep or shallow, any game. New tournaments definitions can be quickly configured and made available.

The software is continuously being improved with weekly software upgrades and website updates. As an example, check out the new visuals on the Chinese & Open Face Chinese tables. It's a great action game and not many sites offer it.

Wow, that looks really nice.

Maybe you could add some more screenshots to the first post to show off how good the software looks?

When I read your previous thread I was completely surprised after downloading the client.  It wasn't at all what I was expecting.  I honestly almost didn't even bother checking it out assuming it was another basic Poker Mavens site.

And maybe list some of the features that make your site different/better like:

• Re-sizeable tables
• Preferred seating
• Customizable table/card colors
• Late registration
• Synchronized breaks
• Tournament lobbies
• Lightning fast software
• Chinese Poker

[TheVault]

Just a quick reminder that the nightly freeroll is starting in a couple of hours, 7.30pm ET. Try it out if you haven't already.

Maybe it was me being naive but I thought that pretty much all poker clients would have the above features and that these features are nothing to trumpet about. The capabilities of the client are described in some detail on the website already under the SOFTWARE menu. The website could do with some more up to date client snapshots and these will go in over the next few days. Thx for the feedback

There will also be a software upgrade in the next couple of days. These are generally unannounced as the process only takes minutes but a quiet time will be selected for this.

The Open Face Chinese tables seem to be getting some action. Please spread the word around that these games are available here

If you're someone coming from the traditional poker sites then that's true.  But it's not true for the current bitcoin poker sites.  Your client is so far ahead of the others.  It has all of the features that bitcoin players have been asking for, so I think it's something that would be a good idea to advertise.

Plus, it's just a really good looking site in general.  I've played on dozens of sites from big to small over the last ten years and this one still compares very well.

I hate giving unsolicited advice but I really like the site so far and want to see it do well.  I saw the screenshots on the website but I think it might help if you added a couple in this thread so people know that it's worth going to the website and downloading.

I'm sure that the new ones you are adding will be better but I just took a few to post for now:

Table with background color changed in options menu


Auto-tiled tables


Tournament lobby and main lobby

Nice! thx for putting these up. Ideal would be a sticky topic with various screenshots where people at a glance could check out the look of a site without having to scroll through posts

A Note on the Nightly Freerolls

Some players are entering the freerolls but not playing a hand and not being logged in at all while they are running. Given that the freerolls are relatively deep stack (2000 chips) and with a slow 10 minute clock, its is possible to last a long time just sitting out. Indeed some people have cashed while sitting out for the entire tournament. Winnings to date will be honoured, but from today onwards, if a player doesn't participate actively in the freeroll then they will not be eligible for a payout. What constitutes active participation is open to debate but to date players either don't show up at all or else play from the beginning. All games are logged so it's possible to see quickly the level of participation. I will be fair on this.

Regular tournaments are unaffected as once a player has paid the buy in they are entitled to play as they please, but sitting out to cash is against the spirit of freerolls.

Maybe the structure needs to be changed with antes coming in earlier and with a shorter clock, but the idea is to provide a good tournament with plenty of play, and give people a chance to build a bankroll while trying out the software. I'm not sure what the general solution is to this type of activity. Feedback welcome


More promotions will be coming soon...

This would be the best poker site for btc if there was an option to play online in browser.

I have a problem up here.
I installed, made a new account, login, but fails login.
I upgraded to the newer version and still doesn't login.
I thinked it was maybe the wrong password but not even the recover worked.
It keep saying offline everywhere, any server it could connect just fails... is it me or what?

Edit: it says "poor 0%" for every server up there.

The Poker Network Status dialog should say Very Good for most if not all servers..

The lobby will display a green 'Online' status button when connected.

You may have been experiencing INet issues.



In any case, a software issue has appeared over the last few days. Since moving out of testing and into a live environment, there is a tendency for players to stayed logged in for long periods, sometimes for multiple days. If there is a software upgrade, an already running client will reconnect automatically to the servers once the s/w upgrade has completed, but because they are not re-running the client, the check for client updates on startup is not carried out. Hence, an out of date client can still connect to the servers. With any change in protocol, this can cause problems in the server, and this has happened a couple of times. The next client s/w upgrade will perform a sync with the server on connection/reconnection and will exit if there has been a server upgrade. Running the client again will pick up the new updated software.

I believe this may have caused the issue you experienced. The servers are now running normally, so please try again to log in. You may need to recreate the account as the server has no record of a user id of FanEagle if that is what you used. Probably the server was offline all the time. Offline status is displayed as a red Offline button on the lobby.

There's a NL freeroll tonight at 7.30pm ET. The freerolls were off for a couple of days in advance of a software upgrade but I hate to disappoint new players so there's another tonight. There will be a regular schedule starting next week.

Currently its PC download only. Mobile in the works but not soon.

Not sure if it's new or if I just missed it before but this 4 color deck is awesome:

[TheVault]

The 4 colour deck has been in from the start

Actually, there's a lot of visually adjustable items that can be configured from the table right click-menu including...

• Deck style (as you've seen)
• Card back design
• Flop animation
• Background
• Player images

Don't want to overdo it with options but if anyone can think of other visually customisable nice to haves, pls mention.

You can play on the Training tables if you like to try out the various games, not much of a challenge for a serious player though and its play chips only.

There will be freerolls from 8pm ET tonight. If you are in Europe then there will be earlier freerolls in the coming weeks, just need to wait for Euro traffic to pick up.

I'm occasionally on the tables myself but am a complete fish

An upcoming s/w release will display lobby chat alerts on the main lobby so you can ask for a game in there and it will notify people logged in of someone looking for opponents.

Nice, that will help.

Also agree with the training tables if you want to just get a feel for the software.

And just to remind everyone, the first in a series of a few freerolls starts in about 5 minutes.
