MARCH 22: Bitcointalk Private Poker Tournament #4 @ SwC Poker. COME PLAY!

[tyKiwanuka]

For side bet I go to Cashier-transfer and send 1000 chips to FOMA 777, all caps with space or? I just tried that and it said to me player not found.

FOMA777 (no space)

[Trofo]

^Thx.

I have sent 1000 chips to FOMA for the side bet, and managed to find the tournament. All set now, will see you guys tomorrow, my nick is same as here.

I am expecting to be among the first players out of the table since I didn't play poker in the last 10 years and stakes are low enough to make some rush decision.

Well, you've got the last longer bet motivation, I guess that's the one that will refrain you to make those rush decisions. See you around on 23 hrs. on the SwC table, I might expect it will be same as before that participants will be registering late and now we got 8 players count me in on that to 9.

I might invite people on local next tourney if they'll interested to join on this tourney, even 2 to 3 people might make a difference on the coming tourneys if they can invite on their own.

received, OP updated. we have 5 people in the last longer bet now. it seems @buwaytress may be joining as well, not sure yet.

sounds great. feel free to invite them (and share the password) to this one as well.

we've got 8 players registered so far with a bunch of regulars still missing. i'm gonna post the password in here and the WO in maybe ~12 hours, and send out a last minute reminder.

edit: the game starts in 7 hours. the password is btc4682kr

hope to see you at the tables!

In the hopes of adding a little bit more fun to our game, I'm setting the Bad Beat Prize, 0.0025 BTC.

RULES:

If your

- full house is beaten by four of a kind;

- four of a kind is beaten by a better four of a kind or a straight flush

- straight flush is beaten by a better straight flush

make a screenshot so that we could see what happened, something like this



post it in this thread, and you'll get 0.0025 BTC transferred by me to your SwC Poker account.


From my experience, the probability of such an event is pretty low. So, I will be more than happy to give away 0.0025 just to see the screenshot of this happened in our tournament. It's a good deal for me. Really.

Good luck!

See you at the tables!

What is the rule about buyback regarding our last longer side bet. Does the buyback count or you are out when initial stakes run out?

Not much chance of that happening but thanks for the initiative anyway. This way we can have a bit more insurance to go all in on a already great hand

I think I might not able to share this one but for sure the next one I'll be able to, I'm just hoping the time for them will not be a hassle since the Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) might take last and people might be boring not doing anything at home here in the Philippines.

Thanks, since sheer luck is just around the corner so this one may come in handy even if you didn't win the tourney, though the chance is really really low. Thanks for the prize set up Betwrong and your generosity.


Just registered on SwC and there are already 9 players who'll roll I'm expecting there will be last registration same as the last tourney. 1h till we start flopping guys, see you there!

Edit: Just 40 minutes of my gameplay then I'm busted, Trofo you really got me I thought you were just bluffing. GG!

I would assume that as long as you were in the tourney when it started, both buyins count towards the last longer bet if you use them both. Noone has used a 2nd bullet yet that is in the bet, but it is allowed.

**EDIT**
EntrScreeN and Trofo have both rebought

Sorry man, better luck next time.

Can we switch tables or is it done automatically? When will we all get seated on a same table? I guess when there is only 9 of us left or?

Correct, once we get down to 9 players we will all be moved to 1 table. Have patience.

Fuck, I am trying last 20 minutes to say something in the game.

You need to earn some krill to be able to chat. I'm not sure how much but i'll find out for you.

Looks like you need 50 krill in order to chat

Wasn't there some way to disable this requirement in our tournament? It is a bit lame for us newcomers this way. You guys are chatting up and I am sitting like sulking mute

I can't chat yet either and I must also earn krill first. I don't think we can deactivate it.

NH Foma777 (figmentofmyass) GG to all!

16 players + 3 rebuys = 0.019 BTC prize pool. + the 0.005 BTC side bet pool. not bad for a few days notice.

we're now at the final table. yahoo62278 with a big chip lead, almost 1/4 of all chips. he's a favorite to win both the main and side pot. we'll see what happens.

I have had KK 3 times so far in this game and AA once. Helps that they held everytime as well.

you only need 1 krill to be able to chat. our private tourneys are rake free though, so you won't get any krill by playing them. you could sit at the smallest micro stakes for ~30 minutes and earn at least that much.

no way to deactivate the requirement unfortunately.

Ok, thanks. I'm gonna take care of it this week. I think next time I can chat too.  

EDIT:
Congratulations on winning the 4th tournament @yahoo62278 

[yahoo62278]

Looks like I got both prizes this week. Great game everyone. I'll be in the next 1 when it's set up and i'm game for the side bet as well for all interested.

[figmentofmyass]

yahoo62278 limped preflop, so i shoved AQs. he called with J9s. i'm out in 4th! at least i made it ITM.



it was over quick once we were ITM. Iv4n took 3rd and Betwrong took 2nd.

yahoo62278 won the tourney and obviously also the last longer, well done! 0.005 BTC coming your way via SwC transfer soon. please confirm once received!

edit: transfer done.
