Online Poker, Pandemic, Crypto adoption

[traderethereum]

This pandemic makes people stay at their home and do their work from home.
People who play poker game search for the poker online, and they see a poker site which using crypto for placing the bet, so they try to buy crypto and use it for gamble.
I think you want to offers a service to people who search for lessons, coaching, or other things related to poker. If that so, maybe you can share the details of what kind of services you want or do you want to search such services here? If yes, then I think you should forget it and try to search by yourself because I am afraid that you can get a scam by those people.

Hello everyone,

Online poker traffic is growing during the covid19 pandemic. Formats like tournaments are becoming
very attractive, sites are running huge series with big prizes to win and a lot of recreational players,
beginners and traditional casino players are joining. In addition some sites added cryptocurrencies as
deposit and withdraw options.

The growth rate of the online poker/casino user is the reason why some government increased the tax rate of online gambling site and this furthermore somehow help Bitcoin to again more patronage and exposure in the institutions. But are you a poker training service cause I dont understand what you really offer in the (d) section.

Many will be interested to it for sure especially if they can gain something from it like in rakeback deals. Are you offering a decent percentage of rakeback that we cannot get from other poker platforms.

Many will be interested in it especially during this Christmas season where people need some fund for the holidays but the rakeback deals or the money is not what important if the interested participants winning chance is not guarantee cause what i see here is people making trading judgment basis on a strange decision.

I am in contact with agents who are offering the best rakeback deals for ggpoker and partypoker. If there is any interest anyone can pm me and i will build up a connection with them. All the rakeback will get paid direct the poker accounts on mondays. The only requirement that your account is not already affiliated.

If i understand this part very well then you'll be the one that will get the affiliate reward for very new user thats interested?

cool. i used to stake and be staked back in the online poker boom days. sounds great tbh. i'd love to see a venue for buying pieces of tourney players.

are you talking about a site where you curate players and we back them? or one where anyone can present their stats and be staked?

how would tournament funding work? how secure would stakers' money be? how do you make sure staked players don't stiff you?

Nice to hear mate, yeah me and my team are developing a website where players can list there staking offers. Players will have a profile where they have to present their results, winrates and references. There will be a voting system and all payments are based on cryptocurrencies or fiat through ewallets like skrill.

At the beginning i though about posting daily tournament schedules. For example a player has posted 10x Tournaments and the average Buy-In is 100$ so its a total package of 1000$. Since the player is a winning player he will put on some Mark-Up. So lets say the player has a ROI of 40% on the tournaments he posted. A fair Mark-Up would be somewhere around 25%, so 1000$*1.25=1250$. Now backers can buy shares, 10% would be 125$ etc. If the player wins 10000$ the backer wins 1000$, a profit of 875$.

Well aslong there is no website, backers will straight fund the player after his package gets sold off. In first place there will be reservations, after its clear that the package is going to be sold off backers transfer their funds, before the start of tournaments. After it is all about trust, there is no security that the player isnt going to scam. But as i said before we go public i am going to sell my packages to gain trust from the community. Selectively i going to add trusted and profitable players, randoms or beginners wont be the case.

I will create a discord channel today and you can check out the schedule for sunday.

If you do nothing with the bitcoin, and leave it in your wallet, then it is actually a kind of gambling. You wouldn't even need a gambling site for that. Maybe you can also bet somewhere on the expected price or closing price of the Bitcoin on the last day of the year? Or in other measuring points.

I’m easily enticed by cashback and rakeback deals. It somehow ensures that my stay in the casino is prolonged and I would have a lot of play time, which is really good for me as a customer and for the platform as they are providing me a good reason as to why should I stay with them. Pair that with a nice bit of games to be had and you get another degenerate on the regular.

I've seen you posted on the same topic for poker staking. On this thread: Staking at CoinPoker.

Have you contacted the OP of that topic and already in negotiations? he has replied to you his discord.

No so far we didnt speak.

Hey, my goal is to find out if the crypto community is interested in those topics i mentioned above.
Me and my team are working on a site similar to youstake.com, where payments are made in cryptos with lower fees and couple unique features.

Besides that im a longtime player who converted from a full time to a series player a couple years ago.

If you want to make a good poker website, it's likely that you'll be able to gather some interested people, but somehow poker is not extremely popular in the crypto community. Way more people are placing bets on sports or playing slots than poker, I believe. I judge from the number of people that join poker tournaments and a lack of good websites offering poker (there are only a couple to mention), but the lack of discussions about it not being enough. In that case it's good that your idea is not about a poker room, but rather something else with people financing players of the tournaments if I got it right. While there are good players here, they probably wouldn't enjoy the idea of providing identification. Besides, they are known for their forum names, not the real ones. But perhaps it's possible to work something out with signed messages or personal passwords, I don't know.

Have observed a couple of crypto poker tournaments in this forum and on other sites and the biggest issue I felt is the entry fee which is usually way higher when compared to other popular crypto casino games.

This usually deters many crypto gamblers. Also, poker is a complicated game which many newbie gamblers have a tough time understanding.

Maybe you can also bet somewhere on the expected price or closing price of the Bitcoin on the last day of the year? Or in other measuring points.

You can already do this on certain sites like Fairlay etc where their are markets for predicting popular cryptocurrency prices like BTC, ETH, LTC etc at different points of time.

Hello everyone,

beginners and traditional casino players are joining. In addition some sites added cryptocurrencies as
deposit and withdraw options.

It would be great if i find some support:

Is there any interest in:

a) poker staking? short-/longterm, cashgames/tournaments
b) rakeback deals -casinos
c) cashback deals -ewallets
d) poker coaching?

Thank you!

I think that a, b and c may already be covered by existing sites, so it may be tough for you to gain a sizable market share in the poker ecosystem even if there is significant interest from the community..

Coaching is definitely something that would be interesting if you could integrate it into your site though.

It will all come down to execution though, one way or another. Your ideas are decent but it will take great marketing and developing to maximise its potential.

i think poker tournament and cash game is seperated on a.) poker staking  and should have its own letter ( letter b.) ) . its the poker tournament is the one that every poker site had but not all that have this have a poker staking option on them but rakeback and cashback are everywhere , both are the same and can be merge on one letter ( letter c.) )and the last one is coaching is the newest of them all . it wont need a great or big marketing for new stuffs because poker players are going to find it interesting .

He has given you his contact maybe he has something good to offer and in favor of you.

You're more experienced that me with negotiations through staking so good luck dealing with that guy.

This is a good initiative, interested gamblers who wants to have idea and even newbies can join this if they want to know more about poker and services you offer.

Happy Christmas and Happy holidays to you too.

Looks like you are interested in creating a casino where people can play poker. You won't be able to know what people wants unless you make one. Sure, taking suggestion from here might help, but opinions of few people won't speak for the majority.
Start a poker site. Create a userbase and add different rewards and incentives. See which one most of the people likes and keep that one. Trying different reward system won't hurt you.

Is there any interest in:

a) poker staking? short-/longterm, cashgames/tournaments
b) rakeback deals -casinos
c) cashback deals -ewallets
d) poker coaching?

Thank you!

I would guess people would prefer rake back deals more than cashback. I doubt anyone would want a "poker coach".

[gamb0l]

Im not interested in creating another online casino, i want to help existing poker players in this community.

Beyond that, i want to gain trust and offer attractive staking investments.

Now we need some action in that discord channel.

Merry christmas!

fair enough, that's how p2p "buy a piece" staking has always worked, but i wonder how many stakers you'll find specifically outside of a poker community and on a site like bitcointalk, since players generally won't have have a reputation here.

when i used to stake on 2+2 back in the day, it was not just a matter of showing sharkscope stats, but also a matter of being established enough on the forum to be trusted with staker funds. that's the potential deficit i see here. and without a deep pool of potential stakers, staked players may have trouble consistently charging a decent mark-up and selling all their pieces.

you might have better luck garnering interest on 2+2 or cardschat. bitcoin gamblers are pretty degen---mostly bettors, dice players, etc and less poker players around here.

What skill level are you targeting for poker coaching? Is it a p2p system whereby coaches can connect with their students, or is there a central provider of a course by your organisation?

If it's primarily targeted to beginner - intermediate and prices are reasonable I'd definitely be interested. I'm a novice at poker but I've been trying to learn over this holiday season.

[Galley]

I think many clients would be interested in learning to play poker. The game is intellectual and requires good knowledge and memory if a person seriously decided to learn how to play. And you can't just get such knowledge, you need good teachers. If you can provide training at a decent level, then this is a wonderful idea.

[ecnalubma]

I believe there is a good demand on what you mention. Online poker is great choice for gamblers nowadays, the number of gamblers looking for online poker platform probably increased. Its best that Poker platform should grab this chance to attract players by offering unique services.
