Bitcointalk SwC Championship Poker Series(50 mBtc added by SwC)

[efialtis]

What do you mean Globb0 ?

The new spreadsheet. I just see this. If you know a position you finished you can work it out. I cant remember I was about 14th or maybe 17th? doing well until I exploded in flames   

Lol, you guys are funny. You mean the BTT1 & SWC1 - this is just a sample and these slots will be replaced by bitcointalk & swc names.

Yes, that's how it works.
Globb0, download one of offline files and do play with numbers.

I would now like to "officially" announce that we will have a Runner-up Tournament for everyone who won't make it to the Championship Final! SwC are generously hosting this and sponsoring a Freeroll with a 10,000 Chips Prize pool and it's going to take place on 03 May.

I have just sent out Sunday's password via PM - please hit me up in case I missed you!

Just got the password for sundays runner-up game. Thanks efialtis.    I signed up right away, too. Looking forward to the game. Hopefully everyone who gets the password will also play along. Good luck to all participants. 

[cygan]

+1, just registered. thanks for hooking up the "losers" freeroll, efialtis!

i'm not positive i'll wake up for it, but i'm gonna try. there's a 500 chip R/A 10k GTD that runs at the same time, a little added motivation. with the limited MTT schedule, gotta take action where i can get it. i'm liking SwC and so fed up with americas cardroom lately.

good luck to those who are in the championship on saturday.

good luck to those who are in the championship on saturday.

Can't wait for the game to start. We actually have a holiday in my country tomorrow so Saturday is a perfect day for me, right in the middle of a long weekend. I got hooked to our poker games. When this started I was sure I will not play all the tournaments and now I am feeling bad because I can't play in loser's tournament as well

This corona lock up has got me hooked on poker and on esports. I will have a big problem to fit all my gambling vices in daily schedule when football and tennis make a comeback (both on TV and in real life).

Good luck to all the participants of both tournaments and may the best player luckiest bastard win.

#1 Bitcointalk Championship Runner-up Game is live!

Thanks for the pw bro I already got it and registered too. So it will only have one winner, am I reading that right? It's still a tight match for sure, there are still good players to play on. Good luck!

[figmentofmyass]

that's because there are only 3 people registered. the payout structure will smooth out as more people join. i assume the top 4 or 5 will be paid.

[Steamtyme]

Thanks for the password. I don't think I'll be playing in the runner up tournament good luck to all who play. Looking forward to seeing who takes down the Series Championship. Here are links to the Last 4 tournaments. Not a ton of Hole cards as I didn't run deep in any of them. I didn't get a chance to edit out some dead time, especially last weekend before I figured out the multitable view.

Saturday April 18th
Sunday April 19th
Saturday April 25th

Thanks I have registered now. Its up to 5 players with 2 places already.


Do I need to send chips to somebody again this week? it didnt charge me anything to register.


*edit* good luck in the big final. I found out how to open a specific table now so I can watch the finale* (like in the above linked video)    *assuming the kids will play ball */edit*

No chips needed - it's a Freeroll.

Reminder, just in case - this would be the only reason for anyone to send chips now.

Hey guys,

I would also like to take the chance and ask for something unrelated but very important.

Royse777 recently came up with a great initiative to help fellow forum members in need during horrible Covid-19 times.

Link to his respective thread: Project Covid-19: An approach to support the Bitcoin community

It's a great initiative to support forum members who are (provably) in need. I wouldn't want this to become a debate and rather keep things simple - everyone who took part in our series is more than welcome to:

- Send some chips my way
- Play the final tournaments and donate some of the winnings (send over chips/have me send you less of the added prize if you are one of the three final game winners etc.)

(SwC Account: youcantwin)

I will have Royse777 get the funds asap. No obligation of course and no minimum/maximum - just send as much as you can/want, anything helps.

While we are having a great time playing poker, some fellow Bitcointalk mates may be having a very hard time to even cover their basic needs in life, so I think this is a great initiative and worth supporting. Most of us are spending so much time here on Bitcointalk and it obviously wouldn't be the same without all the great members of this forum, so let's try to support those in need.

Just as well I spent 2 days getting my ass handed to me on the no rake table.

I was optimistic but now I wonder if I learned anything.   

My idea was to earn the fee.. *Error*

[cryptofrka]

I have just sent out Sunday's password via PM - please hit me up in case I missed you!

Pick me, pick meee!
Still a long way to go until that tournament but please send me the password when you have the chance.

Hopefully I'll have a good game at the loser's tournament, I almost got into the paid positions in the last one we played.
Looking forward to the last game of this series!

[big_daddy]

Big tnx for the password for the runner up tournament
I wish to get the best cards ever
Can’t wait Sunday evening 

[sana54210]

Honestly earning the fee usually does work out if you have enough money and enough patience. It is actually a liable strategy by the big players as well, they usually end up playing at lower tables first to both get it going and be warmer to game and get used it, get their engines going, and since it is a lower table they are usually better players anyway so they end up with some money that would help them register for a tournament or something. That means at the end they give a small break and go back to playing on the tourney as well, and it becomes free for them in a way.

I remember many from "the company" did those kinds of stuff all the time. Of course you have to make sure that you are definitely better at those lower tables and also even with that sometimes you get unlucky, so you gotta have a deep pocket to recover as well.

Can somebody please help me to understand correctly everything about this tournament?

I want to start to play Bitcointalk games in the SwC poker room, but I am confused a little because I see two threads, and there where already many games played to date.
I think this final is already full and scheduled this weekend, do I have any chance to join, am I right that I am already too late? Will there be a new edition?

Which games can I play this weekend? What is with this other: Bitcointalk Poker Nights Discussion Thread (private games for btctalk members)? Where are links to these games?
I have read both opening posts and few first and last pages of both threads, but can't figure out where to play, when and for how much?

A few weeks ago I got PM from somebody, with an invitation to these tournaments, but exactly then, I was busy.
Now the situation changed and I have a lot of time in the weekends, a great opportunity to play poker with fellow Bitcointalkers   .

I don't believe there are any Bitcointalk poker tournaments you can join this weekend...

Thank you very much for this fast reply @Steamtyme. I really appreciate it.

~snip~

I don't believe there are any Bitcointalk poker tournaments you can join this weekend. There is the Series Championship - and the Series consolation tournament. If you didn't play in any series games the last 4 weeks you won't be able to get the password.

Sportsbet.io does host a freeroll every Wednesday for forum members, and there will be more tournaments on SWC starting next week I think maybe the weekend after for another series and maybe some standalone tournaments as well.
