Yeah, along with being the nut slow part of the season it was a little slower than usual today when you posted that.

But it only takes a few people to get a table going, so there is a good chance you will be able to find action... especially in PLO.

There's a group of players that like to play those games/stakes and from what I see it's often HORSE/mixed games, Razz, or Big O. They probably average around 10/20 or 20/40 for the limit games, which is about $3/$6 and $6/$12 in USD right now. And if you go down to like 1/2 ($0.30/0.60) you'll be even more likely to find a PLO/Big O game at most hours.

And one cool feature of the site is the main chat lobby. That allows you to talk to the other players on the site and arrange a game. There's also an "Action Request" button on the tables that will post a link to your game in the main chat.

What is plo big o?

5 card

Yeah, Big O is five hole cards and they also have Courcheval. It's like Big O except you get to see the first community (board) card pre-flop.

Hope they get more volume. I am so frustrated with the options for USA players. I miss the mixed game stuff

Oh how I have missed you SWC.

These bastards make a mac version yet?!

Do they allow player to player transfers?

if you're willing to start games short, I'll help you start some mix games,

I love playjng short. I don't like full tables anyway. I need bitcoin first tho. Trying to figure out how to get funds on the site

Yes, you can p2p transfer in the software, but you can also do a bitcoin p2p and have the coin sent directly to your SwC account.

I don't get it.

Right, if you want to purchase bitcoin yourself with a bank or credit card then either use Circle or Coinbase online, or possibly LibertyX to pay with cash in person.

Or you can find someone to trade with... like $100 from another poker site for $100 worth of bitcoin.

It will pick up in September. I was a quasi regular but now I come home all sunburnt and drunk from the beach everyday and don't feel like playing. I also know a couple of friends that got felted who think they will be back.

Stay patient and get your bitcoins all fired up imo

LOL, I agree. I want to play, but everyday I have to make the choice of having fun outside in the sun or poker. And then at night it's drinking a beer and hanging around the fire pit or poker.

Poker doesn't win that fight much. But I will be back to playing a lot more soon.

They have P2P transfers so you can either buy BTC and deposit it or send money to someone with Seals chips and they can transfer them to you directly. Like other, I haven't played as much during the summer, but I still open some mid/high draw/mix tables a couple times a week and try to start games, but then usually end up joining the 2-7 table w the guy who sits at them all day, as I don't have a ton of time to sit and wait for action. Like others have said, the games will pick up again within a couple weeks.

Bitcoin is just a virtual currency. You can get bitcoin from anyone who has a bitcoin. Some end users sell them for cash, for trade, for payment for goods, bigger companies sell them and charge your credit card or bank. There are many million ways to get bitcoins. Just open craigslist and do a search for bitcoins and some guy will come by your house, take your $50 and load your wallet with $50 worth of bitcoin. If you trust people online you can also do it online, just don't deal with any russians or chinese.

You need a bitcoin wallet which again is just a link like .. ajdjsd324342 and when you want to send bitcoins to seals you just send to your specific seals account asksdjd393939 address.

Once its on the site you can transfer chips between players.


Yes traffic is slow because its summer in the US and Canada and that is the majority of the site traffic. People are away or would rather be on the beach. But I see nothing wrong with this. I would prefer a site with a few hundred players over a million because you can keep track of people better and there are less sharks good players.

This software is junk and I tried to use windows compatibility checker and can't run because the program .exe is hidden in users account folder instead of the program folders. Why is this???

Some glitches in OFC Pineapple, my winning hand was fouled and not able to complete last draw. I emailed support and they responded by giving me 60 chips, so my hand is a 50 point winner but this seems arbitrary. I don't think this is fair, I think I should receive max potential points in this situation as their game integrity is in question.

Here's their response:

"xxxxx,
We reviewed the hand in question. While we can't assume you would have caught perfectly, and would have won the maximum, we do agree that compensation is in order. We've awarded you 60 chips.

Regards"

If you “can’t assume I would have caught perfectly” then how can you assume that I wouldn’t?! This is why you must award the max potenetial score in this situation; to protect the image of integrity in your games. To assure me that if your software messes up, I’m not taking the worst of it.

What do you guys think?

And here's one from last week that is scored correctly but points are distributed incorrectly and I got shafted.

i just made an account at this site, i deposited $20 worth in bitcoins and my balance says 74... im confused???

At first glance, that sounds correct.

1 Bitcoin = $268 (at the moment) You may have paid more or less.

1 Bitcoin = 1000 chips at SwC (always)

You deposited less than 1/10th Bitcoin

didnt know this part... "1 Bitcoin = 1000 chips at SwC (always)"

now it makes sesnse

ty sir

Looks like bedulis only had 7 points of action left for the hand, and for whatever reason it went to Orcfi. That's the number in the parenthesis. I.E. you already won the most you could from him due to his short stack and yours.

You are welcome.

SwC is the most fun I have ever had playing internet poker, and that included years at Stars.

As for the other hand, I don't know if a replayer screenshot is a reliable indicator of what actually happened in the hand. It may rely on the text hand history, which can become garbled if you get disconnected. Does 60 not seem fair? You could have won 82 at most if the hands were accurate, and you caught two one-outers on the end.
