Betnomi Poker series discussion thread

This is absolutely fantastic!

Thanks , @yahoo62278, for organizing it!

I wasn't registered on Betnomi yet, so I shot you a PM for your affiliate link.

Regarding the structure, I agree with ppl above saying that it would be better to keep it closer to how it was, because, indeed, as @seek3r said, old conditions were well balanced. But, actually, I'm flexible, and going to agree with the majority in the end.

Hey guys, really great news! Special thanks to Yahoo and Betnomi for making that possible.
I´m fine with the same conditions like we had at SwC. However, I´m not a big fan of that lottery.
Is there a possibility to join the lottery as a voluntary action?

I will not scrap the lottery unless the majority votes against it. This is not my tourney, it is you "the players" tourney, so I want to let the majority have the final say in most everything.

Affiliate link also sent to those who requested it.

[EdenHazard]

Just gimme the affiliate link! 

Not a regular poker player but let's see what can i do. I can't promise you I'll be there to play as I might will also have to work all the weekend shit but I'll go there when I have the time for sure.
If only we can play through mobile though, I'll always have a time!

Hi! Season number five.  

As for the rules, schedules and in general the basics, I add myself to how they were established. (Season 4)

Of course, I would like to state the following that does not refute the above or be understood as a "yes" but "no".

That is, the point is to give fluidity to the Season #5, but if I would like play in 6-max. I think that would give a different style of play to the series, I understand that for those who play with their full table strategy. This can be a big game changer, but it could show that your perfomance poker style-game is playing successfully at any type of short or long table.

In fact it could be a short table season (6 max) and the next long table (9 max)
 
My time is UTC -5, that means that although for some it is already the boring late Sunday night, for me it is the happy Sunday afternoon, in that sense the future of Poker Sundays at the established time is always available, but If there is a difficult day to avoid family commitments, it is Sunday, so thinking in that sense and that of 8 games you can fail in two (    / maybe none is just a random number of absences   ), I suggest based on two reasons, the one mentioned and that if we start on November 8, the tentative schedule could be the following:

Q1: Nov 8
Q2: Nov 15
Q3: Nov 22
Q4: Nov 29
Q5: Dec 06
Q6: Dec 13
Q7: Dec 20
Q8: Dec 27

The final on January 3/10, 2021 (omg, 2021 in sight).

The current scenario, my proposal is to maintain the maximum of 8 games per player but due to the December dates, where the unexpectedness of the passivity of every Sunday of the year is manifested in those dates in the opposite way, e.g. meetings, shopping, hangovers, or any unexpected event are especially present on Sundays in December...

If you could add two games on Wednesdays* (or any other day that consensus is reached) and that way if someone misses a game on Sunday they could get it back in the middle of the week. This would be done every 3Q until Q6, that is, we would have something like this:
Q1-Q2-Q3- / Q*/ Q4-Q5-Q6- / Q* / - Q7-Q8.

And it is maintained that only 8** tournaments can be played per player.
**Variants here, you can play them 10Q and the best 8 results are taken.

I don't know!! excuse me if this is something out of place.

Anyway, as I said, I do not care if everything continues as it is in terms of the rules, etc, it is just a opinion or rather an idea.

G.B. Season #5

Thank you for organizing this and continuing to make a community of poker players possible within an incredible community of casino players, if!! community "redundancy" is necessary.

If something is within my power to collaborate, just notify or propose.
Betnomi collateral thanks.

It is nice to see new poker series popping in. I would love to try the freeroll tournament. @Yahoo62778, please PM me your affiliate link so I can join the site and get started with it. Hopefully I will try out some games from main series as well, if won then will play the whole series.

Not crazy about that Freeroll idea. Somehow those always end up with bunch of people signing up which were never before interested in our series and will never join a paid tournament in the future. I agree that is a good idea to test out the client but I would have preferred it if there was some buy in as well.

I just tried to access poker and got a message, please roll your device which is sort of impossible since I accessed it form my desktop computer I guess it is something temporal since it worked well for me in the past and I already played there without problems.
If some of you have tried to download client I am interested to hear if it is better then version in browser. Thanks.

Yes, our poker client went through some maintenance check and updated with some improvements. Make sure you update to the latest version of whatever browser you are using. This should resolve that problem.

The freeroll is not exclusive to players in the series, it's meant for all of bitcointalk to try out the software. Just gives you players who plan on playing in the series a chance to try out the software as well at 0 cost.

The owner is being very generous by having this freeroll but let's be honest, he's not gonna make his money back off this series alone. I will only give the pw to those who post their names in this thread to try and keep non bitcointalk members out, but other then that everyone is free to participate.

Can i play too?

Or we could just postponed one of it and move it to the next weekend . Weekdays is definitely a big pass for some people which is why we made it to only Sunday

How worse could it get when we get bunch of new guy that want a piece of that $250 freeroll, we'll just hammer them out of the table and show them how good the regular from bitcointalk poker series . At worst situation, it will be a coin flip freeroll with most of they guy shoving with pocket pair

I seen this as well. I will be very selective about allowing any newbies in to deter cheaters.

Really? i have better things to do then creat a doble account 

[Betwrong]

Yesterday I successfully registered on Betnomi, and, without downloading the software, played for 10 minutes in a free-roll. Everything worked fine for me. Was a bit surprised by the number of entries, when I was leaving in the early stage



and was even more surprised today seeing this

~ online players 700+, ~

That's a decent number of players, if you ask me.

Now I'm wondering, shall we double the number of participants in our Bitcointalk Poker Series? I think it's possible. What's bothering me right now is that not all our regulars have shown up in this thread. I really hope we won't lose them in the process of moving to another platform. ...


@yahoo62278, thanks again for organizing this!

I would imagine this is something Betnomi can look into more deeply anytime we have concerns. Should be pretty straightforward considering it's part of their day-to-day to try and catch multi-accounting across their entire platform. Not really beneficial for the freeroll but in general over th ecourse of the series.

It does suck having to try and police newbie entries for the freeroll, while at the same time trying to bring people in.

People have done more for less. Yahoo is just being cautious to protect the integrity of the game. I don't know how this plays out, but stick around a while and get a feel for what we've been doing these last few months. If people remain civil things generally work themselves out. Maybe it is a coincidence maybe not, but in the long run Betnomi will be able to help clear up possible multi accounting issues.

[TGD]

I'm interested to join on this tourney.

I can play anytime since I can adjust due to pandemic, I have a lots of free time cheers. I hope that the organizer will give us notification about the exact time and date, direct link to the poker room and clear rules and regulation 1 day ahead of the scheduled date for the preparation and to free some of my schedule activities.

There are 2 things going on here. First is this freeroll

I am filling out a request for a freeroll to be setup sunday 6pm UTC. I'll give you all more details once the request is granted.

I have sent in the request. 250$ freeroll Sunday 6UTC. The tourney will require a password which I made and players will start with 20000 chips 10 minute blinds, no late registration.

Make accounts and post your betnomi name here please. Use my affiliate link if you don't already have an account. Just pm me to get it. Once you get the password don't share it with your friends. If they wanna play they can make an account and post their name in this thread.

Only players who posted names in this thread will get the PW.

Apart from that we run a forum series which will be hosted on Betnomi, we are currently talking about some of the details in what we want to see changed or left alone from past the previous series we have ran.  Either way good to see some new faces popping in, hope you stick around for the series.

I'm not trying to keep all newbies out or anything, this just looked like a very obvious case of multiaccounting. I'd also rather not see users make an account on this forum just to get a password then never be heard from again.

Tourney is supposed to be in the lobby in 26 hours. Once I see it, I'll start pmming users the password. I also considered releasing the password to the public about 30 minutes before the start. Thoughts?
