🦊 Betnomi.com 🔐 Icarus Poker Series | Discussion Thread ♠️♥️♣️♦️

[iv4n]

GG everyone and good luck to everyone still in. Ran my q10 into AQ and 1r0n1c knocked me to the rail. I'll try to get in next weeks game. See everyone there.

At least we participated and got some points for the final table. Things got complicated for me, I will try to be more "free" for the next game and actually try to play poker!

Once again sorry to all for my "inactivity", I ran from room to room whenever I got the chance. Crazy evening (some "new normal") for me...

...congratulations to all nine of you for winning an Icarus card!!!
...please use privnote.com (http://privnote.com) to send me your address via pm Cool...

Thanks Cygan! I am not into those cards, so I am not sure what address we need to send...  

All the same, 6 minutes for level 1 is not enough. I did not have time to enjoy the game during these 2 hours.
....

Congrats man! And I agree... 6 minutes is "turbo", maybe that can be changed for the next games.

Congratz everyone that made it to top 3.

@icopress : Damn man, if only you had no ace on the last hand than I would have gotten abit more stack for the top 3 to scrap abit to higher rank  . Damn kudos to you anyway for not folding that hand and make darbit out just like that  . It was a good fair play on your side. No worry I will get top 3 on the next round for sure

[CoinEraser]

In any case, it was a pleasure to see you all and I hope to see you next Sunday.  

Congratulations on your victory. You were really lucky in this game. I'm happy about your victory. With 3x AA in your hand, you definitely deserve it. 
I hope to see you all again next Sunday. 

[bullrun2024bro]

congratulations to all nine of you for winning an Icarus card!!!

Oh wow! Sweet!

I originally thought that only the participants that reach the big final table would receive an Icarus Card. That's a cool surprise, thanks a lot @cygan! 

In any case, it was a pleasure to see you all and I hope to see you next Sunday. 

Congrats buddy! Well played, pretty sick run! GG.

I lost a big pot for 30k+ and the chip lead with A9 < AK against 1r0n1c. Too bad. But no worries, I will crush you next week.

(If possible, please change the structure for next week to 10/15 minutes blind levels. It's a little more fun, if you don't have to play with less than 10bb after half an hour).

This is a congratulations to everyone who made a presence in this first game after so long.

Congratulations darxiaomi , second place, the Spanish local board has the following score.
Darbit 3, fM 2 and SEO zero points you should have made the final table  . Better luck next Game, bud (Colega)

Well thanks to all the people, from the people who organized the tournament to the ones who play and who send congratulations.

About the tournament itself, yes i like the tournament was fast, because im not so into poker long tournaments, but yes i have to agree with you, with this stack its really fast and hard. Because you cant make so much movements, you can go easily to see a hand, you can go from botom to sky in 2/3 hands.

About my second position it was more luck than skills in the final hands, i can end in 4 place but some all ins against a OP icopress give me the second place.

I think we need to nerf Ico hands 

@cygan explain me how about what i have to do.

[cygan]

i think yesterday was a successful poker evening for all involved. there was only one short lag during the whole game on the betnomi platform, but otherwise everything went smoothly.
congratulations also from me to icopress!
the tournament sheet has now been completely edited by me and is now up to date

i need a postal address from you as well as from the other players (who took the places 1-9 (sit on the final table)) (best created on privnote.com and sent to me via pm) where i should send the Icarus card.
please note that i will send the cards only at the end of the whole tournament - because it will be for sure that some players will win more than one card

Good game! Off to the next one!

[cygan]

btw in the overview i am still missing the corresponding bitcointalk usernames of the following players:

Code:

straateflu5h
MrallIn
twentiwan

this would then also make it easier for me to contact you about possibly winning an Icarus card

[CoinEraser]

Yes, GG from me to all participants from the first match day. It was nice to play with you all again. 
Is that a typo in the thread name? Shouldn't the second game be on April 2nd? April 3rd is a Monday. 

[bullrun2024bro]

You're probably right. Since the tournaments are always scheduled for Sunday, @cygan surely just made a typo.

Pretty sure that will be fixed soon. I hope that we will be at least 20 participants next Sunday. If the field is a little larger, then at least the prize pool increases a little ofc.


Anyone made it into the 2nd day of the Sunday Million Anniversay event?

What im missing?


About the tournament i have one idea, i dont know if you like but, i really like the KO tournaments, that its a small prize for took out a player. I think we can implemented this easily, i dont know how much but like $5 usd/eur in each head.

I think this can make more spicy the tournament and everybody can win something. Lets me know if you agree or not?.

[bullrun2024bro]

What im missing?

Ah nevermind. It's quite off-topic here.

Just FYI: Yesterday was also the annual $215, 7.5m GTD tournament, which some users in our pool also played. And I asked if anyone made it to day 2. But it looks like no one else made it to the 2nd day.


So back to topic: Can't wait for next Sunday boys! 

i need a postal address from you as well as from the other players (who took the places 1-9 (sit on the final table)

Will let you my details know asap. 

[arallmuus]

It seems that the 2nd round lobby isnt created yet in the lobby so are we going to change the blind minutes or are we going to stick around with 6 minutes till the 4th round?

Personally would love to go with 10 minutes though or probably increase the starting stack if we are going to stick with 6 minutes. Its mostly all in or fold after the first break especially if you dont get a decent hands while the blinds is still low if we stick with the current format

[CCwatcher420]

I'm in for all future rounds. See you at the tables.

Sweet! Welcome to the series! Pretty happy to see more faces. Maybe we will make it to 20 players this Sunday.

Yep, I thought there was an announced tournament for the 2nd of April already. However, it looks like it got deleted (at least I only see tournaments until the 28.03.2023). Which is good ofc. Look's like Betnomi is working on the tournament details with fixed blinds and rebuys.

I am sure @cygan or @icopress will announce the tournament here once the registration opens.

[cygan]

I'm in for all future rounds. See you at the tables.

also looking forward to seeing you at the tables this sunday
all participants still have the chance to qualify for the grand final in about 4 weeks.
and all necessary infos like the pw, start-time, ... you need for the tournament can be found in the second post.

I sent an email to the betting office and requested that the time between blind changes be increased to 10 minutes. As soon as I get a reply I will reply.

See. As I have said. With @cygan and @icopress we are in the best hands. 

I am confident that Betnomi will update the tournament settings in a timely manner and we will be able to register right after.

Not sure how you guys here think about knockout bounties in poker, but I like that format a lot. Wouldn't it be nice to have 25% of the prize pool be distributed to knockout bounties for every player? It adds an additional touch of excitement to the game.
