#4 Bitcointalk Poker Series @ SwC Poker (0.06 BTC, BIG BTC Ticket by SwC)

[famososMuertos]

This is a summary of each Q and the points that were accumulated after each qualifier (Q).

A simple "congratulations" may summarize it all, but I wanted to extend it with this express summary of the history of this season 4, before Sunday, October 25, day of the grand finale.

It's good to have found a little poker window in the crypto world here in the forum, however, when you like poker beyond a prize money or a first place, you know that an online game between A group of people with whom you can share any kind of comment after that game, it humanizes the game a bit and I think that makes this series special.

That I have not earned anything but I wanted to say these words 



Trofo Not only did you kill 8 players (the answer was late but it is worth the feat to comment again) but in reality the difficult thing to repeat, at least for now in the Bicointalk Poker series, is that in just two plays you got half. There is a saying in poker that from time to time we get God mode, well now there is the Trofo mode

Please everyone check your numbers and see if everything is correct.

I just checked all of them.




Everything is correct. Meditation on numbers is a great psychotherapy - you really can't think of anything else.

OK then thanks for that instructions.

I will propose to draw the lottery 30 mins before the start of the big games. OK?

It's perfect, mate!

Although there is a scientific consensus that your winning in a lottery doesn't affect your luck in a poker game 30 mins later, we gamblers secretly believe, somewhere deep down in our hearts, that if we lose one thing, we are gonna be luckier in the next one. So for us it's a win-win situation: we either win in the lottery, or going to have more luck in the finals.

We are 4 days away! 

UpDate: Ty, @webtricks. @Globb0, 10000x (x=sorry)

The final will be held on Sunday, October 25, with transmission of the lottery draw, prior to the final table. Connect to the transmission.

Nice work like always mate! However, correct twitch channel name is: Globb0


@Globb0 do tell me the key to accelerate my marble in advance this time, it's painful coming last. I thought it was a simulation game, never knew player can control his marble.

Wait what, you can control your marble? I dont even know that aswell haha.. its a nice warmup for his poker streams btw.
Already excited for this sunday, especially with the live roll for the lottery with the one and only Globb0.

In the last series I won first place in lottery and first place in runners-up tournament!

Amazing as always Globb0!

So does anyone have a favorite for Sunday final game? I am looking at rankings and I don't know what to think...
Strong players, with amazing performance in this series! From "Most Improved Player" Jayce, to improved who is killing in this series, first place shows that... Seek3er a new name and amazing performance in his first series!
Kolloh, bitmutiny, morvillz7z, betwrong, arallmuus and me in the end!
What you think guys, should we make some side bets for the final game?

[Globb0]

You guys are awesome.

I will make a post soon with a schedule and so on.

The gist of it will be go live 1 hour early.

Some fun, some competitions draw the lottery and a preamble to the games, hope I can use some of the awesome graphics too.

Shame the series is over so soon is the general feeling Im getting from people.



PS I have a $109 ticket for this weekend too. so may do a big Friday or Saturday stream of that, still need the money. what time do all the pros go to sleep? I need to just meet old grannies

With all due respect, mate, the first place in lottery is the same the 3-rd place, isn't it? So, you slightly exaggerated your achievements.

That would definitely add more fun to the game, but I personally would rather refrain from this betting. I find it a bit presumptuous to bet on myself, and, on the other hand, I don't want to bet on anyone else!  

But, again, if this were organized like real sports betting, with odds and all that stuff, and some people were really betting on some of us, it would be tons of fun, imo.

Question: Did I send everyone the Runners-Up password? If you don't have it, please pm me and I will share.

This caused some discussion in series #3 but I think it would really only be fair to reserve the Runners-Up game for players who didn't make the Grand Finale.

Yes, everyone that makes it to the Grand Finale shouldnt be given a chance on the runner up final

I find it a bit presumptuous to bet on myself, and, on the other hand, I don't want to bet on anyone else! 

I would want to bet on myself but then I realized Im not that good if Im comparing myself with the others  . This is the 3rd time that I make it to the Grand Finale and I want to win it so bad . Looking back, I was playing like a dumb donkey so far on the previous two Grand Finale and Im planning to go deep on this one

PS I have a $109 ticket for this weekend too. so may do a big Friday or Saturday stream of that, still need the money. what time do all the pros go to sleep? I need to just meet old grannies 

Grannies of pokerstars might be really unpredictable and shove with 35 suited then ended up getting two pairs against your pocket pair lol

shout my name and give me some of your luck when you do the lottery roll. It would be nice to win one of the lottery prize !

I agree, runners up final should be a casual game between friends with lots of inappropriate low hits flying all over the chat. Let serious players have their grand final and play tight game 

Please send me password for runners up. I will remind you on PM if I don't get it before Sunday.

I have just sent out the password via PM to everyone who qualified - I mean the really best players and not those luckboxes qualifying for the Grand Final...

Edit: TyKi as our most intelligent player deserves a spot... he will suck anyways. Let me know if you like to play @tyKiwanuka

I can still smell your madness

This is fine for me aswell. Everyone who qualified for the Grand final should be happy about it and should take the focus on this tourney.
I kinda like the idea that we have two tourneys at the same time on sunday. Everyone can either focus or "gamble" on the tourney he/she is playing and rail for the other players at the other tournament together on the stream of Globb0 (twitch.tv/Globb0). Sounds like a lot of fun

Thank you for the generous offer and the compliment, but I have to decline, since I don't want any VIP (very intelligent person) treatment If there was a "Suckers Final Table", I would maybe accept and play beat you heads up.


For Grand Final there are no odds, but I saw one market in an underground betting site for the small final:

[famososMuertos]

...3 days!

:....//...UpDate: Ty, @webtricks. @Globb0, 10000x (x=sorry)

Nothing justifies the error but the font helped, sorry GlobbO, by the way this click of this post was uploaded that same day, I checked it and I think it's fine, take it as a semi bluff. 

I have two strikes!

[Globb0]

hah don't beat yourself up.

You are brilliant and this will be my "coming soon" screen before the broadcast.

I am still thinking through some ideas but tomorrow morning I should drop you a PM and see if we can achieve some of these fantasies.   

You're humble servant,

Globb0

anyone offering odds for/against anyone? i'd be interested in making a couple mBTC worth of bets on a last longer or something.

i got the password---not sure if that was intentional. i only played 1 game this time! and i was hoping to donate the extra fees to the tourney @Globb0 is (hopefully) organizing.

I agree, runners up final should be a casual game between friends with lots of inappropriate low hits flying all over the chat. Let serious players have their grand final and play tight game 

i've always thought of the 10k as just a fun freeroll for the community, not some huge value thing that the finalists need to be deprived of. no biggie though.

[Steamtyme]

I received the password as well. Not sure what my day is like Sunday but if I'm around I'll pop into the fun final.

Personally. I thin kit's your donation and I don't see anything wrong with you pulling it. I say this whether or not you donate it towards the game Globb0 is talking about, or just wanted back your chips. I know that's not the case, I just don't like the idea of people feeling like they can't do as they wish with their "donated" chips.

I know no one has said otherwise, just wanted to make my point. Meant to post right after you mentioned it the first time.

its totally fine because it is stated on the rules and we havent even roll the winners of the lottery nor starting the Grand Finale yet. Foma just need to  request refund for the donated chips

If you paid extra fees upfront, but aren't able to participate in a tournament for whatever reason, the extra fee will be considered a donation, unless you request a refund. You won't get any tickets for the lottery, if you don't participate in a tournament, even if you donate the extra fee.

Any dispute should get resolved via majority decision.

Besides that, its not really a big deal considering that the prizepool for both the lottery and Grand Finale is already big enough. Less prizes for the lottery and Grand Finale prizepool wont hurt anyone  


@Foma : Im totally cool with both you and Tyki playing on the Small Final, both of you guys are part of this weekend game although you guys might be having your own reason for not joining the fun this series. Best of luck to both of you in the Small Final

[Globb0]

Introducing Sunday, the big event.

Please join us for fun and the finals of the BitcoinTalk Championship 4 grand and small finals.
