Any estimate of when you are going to launch? 2019, 2020...?
Hello, at the moment there is no estimation, but when I start hardcore mode (putting in 6-8h daily) I gues 2-3 months, I will start the "hardcore mode" in 15 days , if I find job it will slow-down, but I won't search a lot since I have "helps" because I worked already 3 years so I get money, so no rush to work as slave for other company, will dedicate time for my project and let's see if I can create something that works.
BTW, I will launch the MVP (minimum viable product), so as Backend Engineer ofcourse I will focus more on the backend details, so frontend surely will not be he greatest, but with time and if the project gets money and is sustainable I will contract frontend developers to pulish the design.

Thanks all for your answer, really appreciate it, I hope more people join giving their opinion, at the moment my general feeling is that it could work, please help me spread the word so more people answers!
My only concern are people that want to abuse the system and other players, let's say bots, bot's with A.I could just leech others people money.
Don't only answer for the bonus, the bonus will be something in the site, let's say $1 or $10 free that you can use in the site, so if you bet that money in a match and you win, you would be able to withdraw it.
NOTE: Don't use this form to ask me for "programming" requests or "hey, let's create an exchange"... If you have something interesting in mind, and it's worth my time, sent me a PM.

Current Status of the project:The game itself is working (just some more details needed), but now I need to integrate a portal, where you can register/login/etc and launch the game and get paired with oher users.
For curios people, the tecnologies i'm using are:
- Javascript, HMTL 5, Node.JS, Socket.Io (For the whole game).
- PHP7, MySQL, Redis, Symfony (For the Portal, the site itself)
- AWS For hosting (not sure if AWS or Google Cloud, any recomendations? I only used AWS and I like it)
The Bot ProblemAs said before, that's a problem that just could ruin the whole project, so I have already some ideas to avoid that.
- Use a google NoCaptcha before every match and between the match (would be 2 captchas).
- Make it mandatory to have some kind of conversation in the chat with your opponent, (not to much but sometimes, so if the opponent spots something weird, he can report that user).
