Just for the record, I am not on board. I am not endorsing this site at this time. I have had a conversation but that's it. I have not made an account and I don't know anything about the team behind the site. I'm not against the site either, I just don't want people signing up thinking I'm endorsing them.
So I guess this means the discussion about sponsoring another bitcointalk poker tournament fall off or is it currently still in discussion? Dang totally would love them to make it happen. Well if an entire series of tournaments sounds abit hassle, probably 1-2 single tournaments with decent buy and 'huge' guaranteed prizepool could be an option as well
Been a while since some of us sit on the same table
I cannot say for sure, I know we had a discussion and they were going to discuss it amongst themselves as to whether its worth it for them to do so. I personally would pass on hosting a series due to the low turnout. People here are too cheap to play a 10-20$ buyin game weekly. No offense to anyone intended but it's factual info. We averaged 1 full table on average and it's not worth a big prize pool for that. Then did people actually play poker after the series? Not really. People were chasing the EV final toruney and once they didn't have a shot, they gave up.
I think it makes more sense to just do a few special tourneys and some added prize money, but if people don't support a site how do you expect them to keep wanting to host tourneys? How do you expect other sites to be interested?
