Hmm. You should get an email. Did you get your withdrawal? Dwolla should only take a day or two. I don't do them myself. If you are having any trouble at all, please email support@skillbet.com and we'll sort it out asap. Sorry for any issues!!

Re: SkillBet.com: Legal Real Money Poker in USA

I am keeping track and have been playing for over 200 games.. I mostly 2 table the $3 level, and some of the complaints are valid (comp calling with k high, etc) I have noticed the bot evolves based on your style of play. The one thing that is certain though is you are playing the same bot as your opponent. The site cant really rig it since you are playing a real person on the other end that is playing under the same set of circumstances as you.

The rake on the 1.5 and 5 challenges is really high and you will have to win 60% to be profitable. I think that is possible, but not worth it. Playing TAG is the only way to go, there are some super LAGs out there that just donate money. The best are the people that see that they are behind and the match is coming to close. They instantly go into SPAZ, shove every hand mode.. I love it! Bottom line I love it, and will play it. Want to challenge, here you go..

Is anyone using this for a learning opportunity? I've been trying to get some info out of it as to how I play post flop against different types of players.

Re: SkillBet.com: Legal Real Money Poker in USA

My opponents will say I'm not much of a challenge at all :P

But duly noted. I find the game fun, that's my 2 cents anyways.

I just want to play poker against nine 10 or six people at 1 table this is just another no bad beat with whistles type deal but with a worse theory in the the making.

A match is the kind where whoever has more chips at the end, regardless of how much more, is awarded the win, right? So isn't this generally the proper play?

Or has the metagame evolved such that the leading player expects the trailing player to play crazy loose on the final hands, so the leading player tries to match their strategy by also playing loose, and then the trailing player can play conservatively and recover the lead that way?

Final-hand situations of this sort against identical computer bot opponents seems like a fun subgame to solve... in game theory hell.

Re: SkillBet.com: Legal Real Money Poker in USA

Very fun and addicting. So far I have a win rate of about 85% over 20 games.

Some suggestions:

*More Withdrawal methods for Canadian members. As of right now, there is only Checks. Would be more convenient if Bank Transfer was added.

*Multi-table feature. Add an option so that open tables can be tiled.


Also, how can the site afford to pay the free $10 challange. Say I challange 100 friends, and win 90/100, then I have won $900. Now say that the 100 people decide not to deposit on the site, or stick around. Although this is rare and a few might find interest, if all were to leave after playing the challange, would the winner still get paid.

My main concern for this site as of now is the withdrawal methods. If you can add more methods, I'm sure you would receive a lot more traffic.

Last time I read the terms, the bonus money can't be withdrawn until >100% of that balance is paid in rake.
