https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAboccYTiCg&t=794sI might start doing some more vids for this site and picking up my action. Taking requests. Can do HU triple draw but prefer 5 card omaha variants. If you think I'm too tight, it's cause u have to up your starting hand requirements with 5 cards. Also, I don't claim to be a pro or an expert. My take on online poker is more fun than your's and likely more profitable. Also, if seals is taking requests obviously 6card PLO is overdue.. adios amigos

To support@swcpoker.eu:
Can you please remove higherhighs from the trollbox? If you want to ban the N-word and F-word, great. I fully support those decisions. But this guy is instigating all of the misery in the trollbox right now and then playing the victim card when it inevitably escalates. Is this person even sanctioned by you? I feel like this must be a troll since it's so over the top, but people keep getting muted and the rules keep getting changed to ban all possible instances of higherhighs' feelings getting hurt, so that's confusing.
Please just post the chat rules prominently and keep it objective. For example, "you can't tell people to kill themselves" and "don't say the N-word or post links referring to the N-word" instead of including wildly subjective rules like "no player abuse" (whatever that means). Then, quietly mute people who break the rules without having higherhighs confront them in the trollbox. If they want to discuss the reasons for the ban, stick to email. For whatever reason, higherhighs cannot moderate chat without making it personal and involving himself in every conversation that has nothing to do with him. His constant barrage of "you're pushing it," "this is your final warning," "you've been pushing the edge all week long," "that's not the only reason we banned beerman," "chat is a privilege," "stop abusing me" bullshit just makes it worse. Why would you even discuss the reasons for player bans with EVERYONE IN THE TROLLBOX? It only escalates arguments when higherhighs tells someone they're banned, but the ban won't take effect until 12 hours from now when someone wakes up. Then, the player rages out for the next 12 hours and higherhighs escalates the conflict even further by increasing the length of the ban because he's feeling "abused." He has directly instigated the abuse he complains of in almost all cases I've seen. Letting higherhighs report people based on his personal dislike of certain players is a disastrous, ill-conceived policy that only serves to make him feel like he has control over some aspect of his life and inflates his ego. He thinks he is entitled to respect because his chat color is green, and when that fails, he resorts to intimidation, fear tactics, and misdirected punishment. It doesn't work that way. You have to earn people's respect. You're driving away players and making SWC look terrible. The 500 krill requirement to chat is punishing new players. Do yourself a favor and take away higherhighs' chat. It won't stop him from reporting people by email, but will prevent the current trainwreck in the trollbox from continuing, and might possibly slow the hemorrhage of players from the site. marlais

They don't give a shit about the regs marlais, its time to just give it up. That being said if there are any devs reading through this if you can throw together a nice btc poker site with a chatbox that won't be handed over to an SJW control freak you will instantly get pretty much 100% of swc's traffic.

I have a question regarding the "Krill system", so how does it exactly work ? i have read in the leaderboard page that you get it by playing cash games (but that doesnt explain much does it xD). so im just wondering whether the amount of Krill you get depends on your wagers or its just hand related, for example: if two people are playing with different bankroll but they've played the exact amount of hands, do they receive the same amount of Krill ?
And thanks in advance

It's explained pretty nicely on SwC's website: https://swcpoker.eu/post/krill-rewards-programEach player dealt into a raked hand will receive Krill based on the calculation:
√(rake) * 0.4 / (players dealt in)
Every player in the hand receives an equal amount of Krill, regardless of their contribution to the pot. Each registered player in a tournament or sit & go will receive Krill based on the calculation:
√(entry fee) * 0.4
Krill is awarded to early registrants when the tournament begins. Tournaments with no entry fee award no Krill.

BITCOIN SERIES OF POKER ANNOUNCED! FULL SCHEDULE COMING SOON! Can you please respond to my question? There has been no official clarification.
Is higherhighs an SWC employee or an account sanctioned by SWC to moderate chat?
The lobby chat rules posted on the website have been updated to clarify the rules and the penalties for violating them. Player higherhighs has been temporarily assisting us in chat during this transition period. Any users that are unclear about the rules or the reason they may have been muted can send an email to support for clarification. Only being able to withdraw to legacy addresses is kind of a pain.
The team is working on this and it will be included in a future update.

Regarding the new chat rules.
Is there any way that SWC would consider implementing a small fee membership that allows users to chat at the table. It would just be a rank that is bought rather than earned through krill, similar to the copper membership here on the forum. It would be useless to chat trolls as it's only for table chat and not the main chat, but would be nice for games like the Forum series or other club games.
Just a thought.
Summer series looks sick, hopefully I can match some events with my schedule.
