^ Too small at 1/2 - 2/4 imo (that's like nano stakes converted to USD). But SWC could at least start them at 10/20 (which I have been suggesting) to get some more action going on there and build their poker economy off of that.
Yeah SwC_Poker, now that it's even rarer to hit the BBJ, is there any chance it can be added to 10/20 and even 5/10? You could always pay just 20% of the actual jackpot for winners in these rooms since the stakes are lower- proportionally it would still be a jackpot. What do you mean 'rarer to hit.'? I don't think SWC adjusted the minimum hands for the BJJ. It's still the nut full house over full house afaik. But yeah... They should change the minimum to quads over quads and expand the stakes. It was AAA1010 beat but now is AAAKK or better beat. The adjustment will make the JP quite a bit harder to win. We were seeing at least 1 JP a week hit for awhile, now it will be 1 per month at best.

Is there any works on the way that could help us get some more deposit chances with altcoins? I have always wanted to play here with the altcoins I have instead of my main investment bitcoin, I do however play with bitcoin right now because that is all I can do but if there was some sort of "coin to chip conversion" rate type of situation that would be awesome, that way if 1 bitcoin is X amount of chips, 1 eth would be 0.00x amount of chips as well (well not 0.00x amount obviously since there is 1 chip minimum).
I know this is a very tough thing to ask but if you do differently and separate them, where 1 bitcoin is X amount of Y chips whereas 1 ethereum is A amount of B chips, you are separating those players and you need as many people on the tables as you can instead of diluting them, hence why I think the first idea would be better.

Can I also ask, is there any reason why the turbo rebuy 3k GTD doesn't take place on the weekend?

Some daily tournaments may be removed if there is a special weekly tournament that takes it's place. Fair enough, but could you point out which tourn was the replacement? The Saturday Special started 2 hrs before the 3k turbo rebuy's usual time (and it's not a rebuy) and the Nightly Rebuy started 5 hours later. If you're going to replace a regular weekday tournament, I'm all for playing at a higher stake and potentially deeper field on the weekend, but at least have it at around the same time and game type! You could just double the buyin to 200 and keep it in the same spot.

EVENT #73 IS NOW RUNNING 1 HR 45 MINS REMAINING TO LATE REGISTER ♣️ Event #73 NLH Championship ♣️ 10k chip buyin, 1,000,000 guaranteed This tournament has 1 Re-Entry available. Players that bust out may re-enter the tournament 1 time at any point before the end of late registration. Fair enough, but could you point out which tourn was the replacement?

One more thing: tournament 42493856 vs tournament 42500874. Both are Turbo NLH non-guarantee events, but one is 240+10(4% fee) and the other is 235+15(6% fee)?? Puzzling how identical tournaments have different amounts of rake, especially since on your rake table it says non-gtd events are raked 5% or less.

I played in poker with depoit 0.001 btc but all was forfeited by playing cards with other players, I was happy with the swc chart although my network was not so strong but everything went normal, maybe this was my start because I was too passionate about playing so I ran out of chips i hehe

I've been toying with this idea in my head after seeing some interest in poker in the space... Is SWC interested in becoming a skin provider for BTC sports betting sites and casinos and form a poker network with a shared player pool?
You guys could start RB programs for affiliates which could help grow the BTC poker economy.

Thank you for the feedback. It will be considered as the team crafts the schedule going forward. If you have a favorite tournament that you'd like to see continue or an idea for a new tournament please feel free to share. Not everything will be possible but it will be taken in to consideration.
I know I'm beating a dead horse but there's absolutely no reason why you shouldn't just put it back in right now. I looked back to every Turbo Rebuy 3k I entered to (sample size 10) and it has been very popular: 8/10 times the prize pool was 4500+ chips and only once did it not reach the guaranteed prize pool, at a total buyin of 2800. So you guys are missing out on the rake it directly makes from the tournament, as well as the indirect rake from encouraging users to stay on Swcpoker - there are no other NLH tournaments at the 10:00 pm GMT timeslot on Wednesday, only an 11-game tournament and a satty. Ask yourself this: what's the main game your player base plays, and who are you prioritising? But you don't even have to choose one over the other because multi-tabling is a thing! Even if there was a special NLH tournament at this time slot, the Turbo Rebuy could and should still go on. They can't "compete" with one another if you're worried about not getting enough entries into special tournaments, since it would only draw in more players. The only exception to this would be if it was an exact copy, with the same blinds and structure but higher buyin (200-250) like I have suggested before you could do on the weekends. At least today (Tuesday) there was a NLH tournament at 10pm, though it was 100x the buyin of the Turbo Rebuy. How many 100 chip buyin players from the Turbo Rebuy do you think have a large enough bankroll to buy into that? I don't get it guys, this has got to be one of the easiest business decisions out there.

Just in case users aren't logged in to look at the lobby, there is also a Heads up freeroll in about an hour with a 4000 chip guaranteed prize pool. Excellent tourney to practice your poker skills in.
