Being unpredictable

[South Park]

This is a new challenge in a new space. A set of variables can make part of a strategy but your feelings, intuition and capacity to face a match and loose it is the main requirement even if you are online. When you can't loose you are an opened book! You're vulnerable despite you're behind a screen. So, try to use communication signals without a pattern. Uses time in your favor. Don't let others build a betting behavior of you. Be unstable as much as possible. Change everything all the time. Gamblers try to read you as a human but in the vrtual world you can be whatever you want!

In the world of poker game, I'm really lost and had no idea about how the game is been played, what discourages me in addition Is because, poker gambling platform usually stops their campaign on their forum because most of the outcome of campaign ran usually go poor, so I have that instinct believe in me that poker games don't interesting.

There's a high probability of that that it's only for the time being. I personally have confidence in that NL Texas Hold'em, my favorite game, and also other poker games will flourish in the crypto space in the future, and that's when patience of the current not so successful crypto poker sites will pay off. Right now they are just building up their reputation which will come in handy at the proper time.

As for us, poker admirers, thankfully we already have places where to play sharpening our skills, and where to discuss our theories, like this place for instance.

I think something similar, it is likely that the current platforms that are offering poker rooms and tournaments are not really that profitable at all but they are doing it because they are planning on getting most of the market share once it flourishes, this is a very common tactic when it comes to businesses, businesses are willing to keep a part of their operations open even if it is not profitable right now because they expect it will be profitable in the future.

I would have thought there are already poker rooms on a blockchain, although it could be a fee issue as every bet would be a transaction I guess? If you use centralized platforms I'd be damn careful not to get robbed if it's a new platform. Playing on Pokerstars is just fine. You don't have the same anonymity/privacy, but I have never made bad experiences with them.

Most likely that's the main purpose, they are willing to spend some money to host such events,

In hope that in the longer run participants will use their platforms and they will benefits out from it, this kind of business tactics is very common way to attract participants to use the service and along the way once they already familiarize they will use it and bring more
players to play along with them.

I can name two platforms where the recent Bitcointalk Poker Series were played.

One of them is Betnomi, which I personally enjoyed very much, but I must say that some people were complaining about occasional log outs during the game. It was always taking me less than 15 seconds to be back in, so I didn't see a problem there.

Another one is SwCPoker, a smooth and established platform where our gang from Bitcointalk played many tournaments, and we enjoyed it very much.

Also, in 2020, Sportsbet.io were setting up several tournaments with good money added to the prize pool by the owners. They had stopped poker completely on their site since, I believe, last Summer, with the intention of getting some better poker software and come back this year, so, it might be a third option.

amazing
thank you for the information
didnt know that
but should be obvious that we'd have platforms in place at this point

I'm surprised that more "traditional" ones like idk everest poker didnt implement crypto somehow...

they'll probably do it sooner or later.

If every bet is a blockchain record, it will make the game very expensive even for the winner. Because everyone will pay transaction fees that aren't normally cheap.

Exactly. And what are odds of tens of millions of people stopping playing poker all of a sudden? I think it's close to zero. Rather those people will turn to crypro at some point in the future(because everyone eventually does, right? ), and that's when the established crypto poker platforms will have their time to shine.

If anything I am surprised it has not happened already, after all if I were to guess which is the second most powerful industry besides exchanges in this market I would say the gambling industry would have that spot, it would be interesting if there is some public market research about this as playing poker with cryptocurrencies seems like a perfect match and yet the number of players currently playing is on the low side.

It is so, I can give faith about Betnomi, on one occasion in your thread I suggested that they could do the tournament online and they did not doubt it, also that that tournament was very well managed by one of the forum's campaign managers who has a lot of experience and guarantees security in all respects, apart from that I like the initiative of sportsbet.io, this is one of the great companies that are excellent in terms of their platform, responsibility and trust, especially the commitment they have with their players, if they go getting into the online poker tournament initiative I don't want to miss it, this fresh news really gets many of us excited. Is there a particular date for sportsbet.io? Already the third chance is the winner! For sure this year we will see that new software for the total enjoyment of online tournaments.

The only way to remain unpredictable to some extent is to remain anonymous and online play porker in an online casino only in that way you're physical emotions are not seen. You don't need to Bluff because that will further expose your technique to your opponent and that can be used against you in the process of gambling.

The bluffing technique will always work well if you believe in the cards in your hand, because if you bluff only with the aim of tricking your opponent but at the same time your opponent has a better card, then of course bluffing will only be a blunder. But indeed, sometimes luck will always make you win by bluffing because sometimes your opponent doesn't have the mental strength to fight back. So yes, I'm sure it's basically not easy to predict, only luck and bad luck will bring you wins and losses.

Taking that high risk using the bluffing strategy, if you mismanaged everything then expect you'll lose with your opponent.

We all knew that by doing this you need to have that big nerve, knowing that if in bad fate your opponent have a good hand
then call to your challenge it will turned things against you and losing is the next thing to happen.

Those experienced gamblers knows how to use it in the right time, gamblers who understand the gestures of their opponents mostly have the edge.

If anything I am surprised it has not happened already, after all if I were to guess which is the second most powerful industry besides exchanges in this market I would say the gambling industry would have that spot, it would be interesting if there is some public market research about this as playing poker with cryptocurrencies seems like a perfect match and yet the number of players currently playing is on the low side.

I would start from this forum, if you ask me. There are many, hundreds at least, poker players here, but in the official Bitcointalk Poker tournaments not more than 30 people are usually participating, and most of the time the number is below 20. Maybe we should create an opinion poll of a kind, asking bitcointalk users what buy-ins they would prefer, what schedules etc. I suspect that buy-ins in previous games were too high for most of the people: they fluctuated between $10 and $25. What if we set a $4 buy-in? We would get rid of annoying alts, usually infesting free rolls, and, at the same time $4 is an affordable price, right?

~ I like the initiative of sportsbet.io, this is one of the great companies that are excellent in terms of their platform, responsibility and trust, especially the commitment they have with their players, if they go getting into the online poker tournament initiative I don't want to miss it, this fresh news really gets many of us excited. Is there a particular date for sportsbet.io? Already the third chance is the winner! For sure this year we will see that new software for the total enjoyment of online tournaments.

Sportsbet.io were running password protected free rolls, and since the password was pretty easy to get(normally it was posted by Steve on this forum hours before start), we saw many of sitting out or going all-in each time clowns, which was annoying. Don't get me wrong, those were amazing tournaments still, I myself finished ITM couple of times , and it was nice to play with familiar users, even if not winning at all, but I would suggest at least a small buy-in for such tournaments in the future.

You don't able to understand  the poker gambling is a separate thing, but poker gambling is still very much popular among the gamblers. Again if any poker gambling sites does not run their campaign for long, its their own will and strategy, but i know that games like Texas Hold'em are still very popular.

Curious here, why do you think these websited like duelbits and 777 dont implement poker too?
its a game that many find interesting and could probably be good for their business

though probably also harder to manage and develop

[poldanmig]

Is there a way that you can ensure being difficult to predict at Poker? For example, if you never bluff, people will eventually get to known that and it will reduce your ability to profit from good  cards? Anyone there knows techniques or trick to avoid being easy to read?

Apart from bluffing our opponents, of course, we must understand the tricks that are actually used by our opponents first, so that later we can stop the opponent's cards that can harm our bets Sometimes some players like to fold if they get a card with a small number and lure us all in if we get a good card and of course this will make our game position a little vulnerable so sometimes it makes us emotional and even act rashly in the game, patience is something that is quite needed in poker games so that we can play poker with good concentration and a calm attitude so as not to be influenced by the opponent's game tricks.

Not forgetting that we have to learn to deal with our own internal emotions.
That is, I may not pass on revealing information from my easy expression and attitude at the game table. But I have to figure out how not to be emotionally dismayed by a letter, or excited. Because if we don't control this aspect, even if we don't pass anything on to our opponents, we can be so focused on our game that we simply ignore our opponents and this could cause us to lose the game.

That is the preventive that you can do if you want to stay unpredicted because being anonymous and play online poker games in your room, no one will know who you are, even your family, unless you tell them you are playing a poker game. You can also rest for a while if you think your tension is getting high so you can play poker without any feeling when you come back.

Well, most of the crypto poker rooms online that don't ask for KYC, no one will really know who you are.

To stay anonymous and not to know how you play poker because you wanted to be unpredictable, that's the case. But whether you play online or not, you can always change your course as you play to become unpredictable all of the time so you can bluff at your will.

When playing online poker you are more likely to win when there are other participants at the tables and not against the algorithms of the platform, normally in poker when you are online and with other participants at the same time, there is a strategy that I like to use , what I learned in the old Maverick movie, if you have a card or a game that is worth nothing, like "Pachuca" the strategy is to bet a lot of money from the beginning, just as if you had a royal flush, and show the other players your safety and the way to prove it is by making very large bets, some players fold and there is a probability that a player will continue the game, but the probability is minimal when it comes to large sums of money. Of course this strategy works only a couple of times. I think that when people play poker or any other game they engage or seek to have a pattern, and when a person does something that others do not expect it is a very good strategy, in fact sometimes the unexpected is when they really win.

And it's a strategy where a lot of money is needed. Also, it's a high-risk strategy, as someone at the table might actually have a good hand and logically won't fold.

Now it's really a strategy that can work and work at certain points in the game. But, it should only be done after understanding what is normally the opponent's playing style, it may not be easy but you have to understand a little of how they are playing.
