So, yesterday I participated in the BIG BTC Satellite[1 Seat GTD] with 95.00+5.00 buy-in. First of I want to bring to notice that it was for sure an EV+ game because the prize, March BIG BTC Ticket worth 10,000 chips(1,000,000 satoshis) was much greater than the total price of all the tickets for tournament combined. There were 20 participants and thus they paid 2,000 chips(200,000 stas) all together. Secondly, although I didn't win the ticket, it was one of the funniest games I've played.

My start wasn't that good, and some time later I ended up on the last place among the remaining participants:



But then luck started being more on my side, and some time later I ended up among 5 remaining players:



At this point some interesting stuff had started happening. The player with the biggest amount of chips, MrBug, said, "I'll buy-out all of you". "What's the price?", the other player, with the second amount of chips, SinisterKid, asked. "500", MrBug replied. (Remember that buy-in was 100, so it seemed a good offer). "Nah", SinisterKid replied. I kept quiet because considering my amount of chips, my voice wasn't decisive anyway. "I understand", MrBug said, and the game continued. "1000", MrBug offered a couple of minutes later. "No, lets' just play, were the replies. "I understand", MrBug said again. And then, when 4 players left, "1250". "No, c'mon, man, let's just play the game". "I understand", said MrBug for the third time. "Good luck all!"

Fast forward to the final battle, where I was playing head-to-head with the Tricky Seal SinisterKid,



 which was very flattering to me because I'm still just a New Seal.

Needless to say I lost to this great player and finished on the second place



but the game was fun overall, and I'm glad I took part in this fun event.

I hate these casino shamers. All they do is talk about how a casino should not be taking money from people, that is insane, I do agree that there are people who destroy their lives because they are gambling addicts but this is not something illegal like drugs or something, this is a legit business and business only run for one thing ; money.

Do you go to mcdonalds and tell them to close shop because people get fat when eating their burgers and people do actually die from heart attacks and such because of that fat? No because mcdonalds is doing something legal and if a person is idiot enough to only live on mcdonalds and get fat and die its not mcdonalds fault its the persons fault.

Same applies here, this is a legit business and if you want to gamble than that is great but if you ruin your life with gambling addiction its not casinos fault its your own fault. Go seek help and stop bothering places like this.

It actually is.

And if you're wondering, here is PokerStars: https://www.pokerstars.eu/de/gamcare/ ; Partypoker: https://help.partypoker.com/en/general-information/responsible-gaming/prevention etc.

and here's a threat where PokerStars took action against an admitted problem gambler: https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/61/mtt-community/degenerate-lost-180k-stars-mtts-ama-1710496/index3.html

The whole point of bitcoin poker is to circumvent different local and global regulations. Online poker died when the US got cut of and France, Italy and other EU countries got ring fenced games. Poker should be global, everyone should have the same oppertunity to play with people from all around the world.

If you don't get this, you certainly don't get bitcoin.

'Responsible Gaming' is just something sites comply with to take the gaming regulators off their backs.  Sites don't really care about you.  They just want to generate rake.

I suggest SWC just comply just so nobody can say sh*t.

[SwC_Poker]

SwC has discussed internally after reading comments about Problem Gambling link, we agree with the players that suggested it and will include a problem gambling link on the site soon.

[tokeweed]

As you should...  Just to be compliant and avoid any problems with some gambling regulator in the future...  Anyway, how are the filtering updates on the lobby for browser play going? 

[beerlover]

SwC putting up something like that is purely because they are decent people and not because they are "forced" to do that, if SwC never put anything like that you still couldn't have a legal action against them for not putting it up there. This is something "decent company caring about the customer" not something "in order to stay open you need to put this up or you will be closed" or something.

The level of imagination these casino haters are beyond me, you have to be proper ignorant to think that casino have to care about your addiction, they should not, if they do that is great for them shows how great humans they are but if I ever owned a casino I would try to talk with the addict to sell his house to bet big on red for a chance to make it back and if he loses I would be happy and if he wins I would tell him to try again he is on a roll until he loses, aaaaaalll because its my freaking job to get money from you as the casino owner not babysit your needs. Thankfully SwC is run by people who are much more decent than me .

Gambling is not illegal like drugs, anyone who says it is must be really out of their minds. Of course if you mean weed which is legal in many places all over the world you might be exactly right, because gambling is legal in many places in the earth as well but I meant harder drugs like cocaine and heroin and such which is illegal as far as I know in anywhere in the world. Gambling is allowed, if you think Las Vegas doesn't exist then it is not my fault, the whole point of a whole city is gambling.

Just because places like pokerstars does try to prevent people with gambling addiction doesn't mean everyone has to, that is not a must, if you are a person with a bit of mind than realize your problem and go seek help, its like saying the gun selling weapon shops are responsible for all people who committed suicide with a gun.

Regarding krillroll access, do you consider lowering the threshold from the current [500+ Krill]?

The Krill program will get more interesting as the site grows. SwC will roll out a full schedule of krillrolls in the future that will include 50+ krill requirements.

It was a great news for me, and I remember seeing a couple of 50+ Krill freerolls after reading it. But there are no such tournaments currently. Are you going to continue running them, and if yes, with what frequency?

Asking because I'm working on increasing my Krill count (I have 23.97 Krill at the moment), and I'm doing it mostly to be able to participate in those tournaments.

[tokeweed]

I think SnG tickets for Krill would get that part of the site up and running.  It's really frustrating to wait for like am hour at an HU SnG table and literally nobody comes.

Edit:  I keep losing my connection and it's costing me.  Anybody else?

SwC has made this problem gambling page on the website:

https://swcpoker.eu/problem-gambling

It will appear in the footer after next website update is pushed. Feedback is welcomed.

This is the first start to build up good support for all issues of gamblers on the SwC site.
In reality, and in long run, the support place will be the most important one of the site, because current gamblers will leave the site if they don't get supports they need (for the real problems, of course); and new gamblers won't come to the site if they see complaints on the site's bad supports.

[SwC_Poker]

the support place will be the most important one of the site

SwC is happy with the level of support being given now. We usually reply to support mails in only a few hours and the staff that manages the support channel does a great job giving correct and helpful responses.   

The most common reason players say they like SwC is because of low rake and fast cashouts.
The most common complaint about SwC is that we don't have enough players.

Please tell your friends about SwC, word of mouth advertising is the best form of marketing for SwC. We are increasing our affiliate outreach and traditional marketing efforts to help bring in new players to the Bitcoin 3.0 platform.

All good to me.  You could also give some options for a three day up to a week cool off period, a temporary self ban lasting months, and a permanent self ban (not that it could help.  They could always make a new account.  Lol).

There is another site, which I shall not name here, with a wider variety of mix games and structures that is stealing your market share.

Do you have any plans to add more mix games to the lineup? Games like Archie, Dramaha hi/2-7, double board Omaha, super/pineapple stud hi/hi-lo, etc.

Adding games like this would help to gain back some of those players that left for other sites that do offer them, while also enticing new members who play mix games and don't want to deal with the "affiliate model" on other site (i.e. difficult cash in/out process compared to SwC).

This is the main (one of mains) factors to build up a strong, and reliable site.
Without support, or too late support will force gamblers, users to gradually leave the sites, and migrate to others, especially old gambling sites.
In a word, the SwC team have supported users well, so far.

Commonly happened to those gambling house where gamblers got disappointed because of not getting any help or responds coming from the team, with this step it will help more people to play along knowing that in any case they will get some answers if they needed, nice job SwC team making things very
easy to communicate.
