So the dice and flips were removed from the lobby because it is all one would see in the lobby a few weeks ago. Looks like they are back and it is pretty annoying. I know ender needs to make his dollars maybe a separate lobby for him it really is pretty irritating non stop for past few days. ty.

I believe the betting is out of the lobby again. If there is still too much 'bet' chatter you can block it like any account and even stronger you can block all commands (from players to 'bet') and responses with the option 'Block SealsDeals Chat' in the options menu.

Eventually we will have multiple chat channels.

Hi its still in the main lobby and I need bet for stakes , I mean I need to be able to see bet they are rolling dice as we speak in main lobby. Not to be a complainer but it is really annoying to see it spammed over and over again

oh sorry missed the part about multiple chat channels

[donk4u]

I sent a latter to E-Mail... But nothing happened 

Perhaps waiting longer than 13 minutes for a response might work...

lol

1)  MAJOR OVERLAY ALERT | 10k guar | 95+5 to Enter | IN ~3 HOURS | 6pm ET | 3pm PST | DONTGETSHUTOUT

2)  I heart the bet-bot and everything Ender has done with it.  I think the #degen for raked flips is brilliant.  That being said, it certainly spams the chat.  As Free said, we are working hard to build tools to allow you to see the main lobby chat as you wish.  These tools are obviously imperfect right now.  A "Stable-Chat" is much needed, as I know Donk4u and many others are doing daily business for hours each day and firing down the SwC MTTs.  Fantastic.  We will have things properly filtered and/or separated soon.  Maybe a drop-down for muting all "#degen" action?  possibly default-on?

3)  "Morning w/the Chairman" for today:

You guys are doing a good job. Everytime I get the itch to play, it's only a matter of minutes before I'm at a table playing. Keep up the good work!

thanks very much.

I'm trying personally to grow a "big nightly" as the next staple of our MTT action.  I ask our users to support this one specifically, as I think it could grow into a really solid MTT each night:

10pm ET / 7pm PT
600 chips (570+30)
6k guaranteed (6 bitcoins!)
3000 starting chips (you asked for more play)
12 minute levels (and we are listening)

SealsDeals.info if you have to, this seems like a great setup to start attracting those that want a bigger possible win each night.  I am hoping in ~8 weeks time to get this regularly at 20-30 runners for a fat 10+ coin prizepool.  I want to see 4 coin top prizes each night, that will get my blood pumping for sure.

Thanks to all our players.  If you have a large amount of traffic or play a lot of live poker and like to talk to other humans please consider our affiliate program.  Hit me personally micon at sealswithclubs dot eu to apply.

Could I get a clarification please...?

I was under the impression that it is perfectly okay to have more than one account, so long as the accounts weren't playing at the same table.

But I see other players complaining on another site about 'multi-accounting'.

Is having more than one account okay or not okay....?

Having multiple accounts is fine. The main thing that you lose by splitting your play is your progress toward higher krill levels.

[HappyScamp]

K thanks!~

[spike420211]

so long as the accounts weren't playing at the same table

OR the same tournament [I hope!]

Having multiple accounts is fine.

OK by me.
But you guyz better have a full-on nazi-ass chip-dumping policy in writing.

These being the games where collusion is most deadly, without strongly enforcing anti-collusion rules, you're going to have games full of cheaters.  Each cheating player gets to know four hole cards so even three cheaters know twelve cards between them.  Plus the pot-limit structure makes it a lot easier for cheaters to whipsaw the chump in between.  There are a lot of situations where in a no-limit game, a player would simply shove, but in pot-limit, it's not suspicious to raise less than all-in, since you actually can't. 

It is no wonder under these circumstances that these games are dead.  An honest player is a complete sitting duck.  While Seals has been pretty good about compensating players for this kind of shit, it has basically been on the players to catch the cheats.  You might get your money back, but there is just no fun in playing what may be a crooked game.  I don't know how sites like Stars handled this internally back in the day, and frankly, I saw some pretty suspicious PLO/PLO8 action even there from time to time, but maybe they need some kind of full-time "cop" watching the action.  To nail down cheats in any reasonable length of time (without losing stack after stack to them), you either need blatantly fishy action (which a good cheat won't give you) or real-time monitoring of hands. 

I certainly wouldn't assume nobody is cheating in the NLHE games but it gets the cheats less of an advantage and, for whatever reason, most NLHE cheats seem to really suck at poker and lose anyway.

The reason it appears that players are doing the policing is that it isn't a serious issue to spew accusations in the chat. Writing emails with suspicions is helpful, but involves no risk. We have to do a careful study before taking action. If we think there is a 95% chance that isn't good enough, we aren't going to close accounts and take funds from the 5% who happen to play together often and irregularly for innocent reasons.

We've always had more NLHE action than PLO, but right now there are 4 games over .25/.5 running and a LO8 25/50 running.

We removed 27 clearly cheating accounts that played PLO in June and July, that's certainly going to decrease the raw numbers, but the legitimate play is steady.

Cheating is more powerful in Omaha games for sure, but the only way to completely eliminate your chance of being cheated is not to play with more than one stranger. If anyone knows enough players that they want to distribute a password to I will set private games at any stakes, just email admin@sealswithclubs.eu or PM me. I'm not convinced many games can form that way, but if it because popular to play that way we can automate private game creation as well.

[Micon]

Freemoney states about that we busted 27 cheater accounts.  Affected players were refunded. 

SealsWithClubs has taken the "we do not bullshit our players" attitude, so let me state plainly:

1)  Cheaters will have their coins confiscated and returned to the cheated
2)  We promise to police our games and always "make it right" when we find wrongdoing. 
3)  IMO a few vocal players started a rumor about widespread, rampant collusion which is simply untrue.
4)  I have recently started cleaning up my DonkDown forums.  This was done partly because I want an uncensored place for players to quickly post-dump HH's & usernames when they feel wrongdoing is occurring on SwC.  Certainly you should firstly msg admin@sealswithclubs.eu if you ever suspect anything, but if you also post the accusation publicly then I and anyone else can examine evidence. 

I care deeply about keeping games fair.  I wouldn't put my face on a site that didn't keep player funds 100% segregated or allowed cheating or collusion.  I think SwC is solving huge issues players faced with traditional sites.  I will not stand for scumbags trying to ruin that.

Hi

I like the 4k increase in chips. Can you guys please add some more tourneys with deepstacks players would really like to see this in more tournaments. The current 1500 strutctures make the games really less of a skill factor and more of a turbo bingo fest. I hope you can add a few more of the deepstacks please. Thanks.

 tyvm for feedback.  We are certainly listening, and in response to the call for "higher buy in deep-aments" we dropped the nightly 10pm ET / 7pm PT 6k gaur "deep6" 600 chip buyin with 3k starting and 12 minute levels.   We have seen a nice response to this MTT and will be looking to make more 3000 chip MTTs, although I think 3k starting / 10 minute levels is plenty for ~100 chip MTTs.  We are actively thinking about and refining the schedule.  Should see it stabilize over the next few weeks as we make small adjustments to get it tight.
