Dear Friends,

I am very excited and proud to announce that Chilipoker.com will soon reveal its new major breakthrough and development in the online poker industry. Next Tuesday afternoon (5th April) this innovative feature will finally be presented to the entire poker community with the hope that everyone will adopt this new standard of playing. These features will be exclusive to Chilipoker.com, a leading member of the iPoker network.

Demos and beta tests have already been carried out by players and influential poker bloggers:

“For all of the billions of dollars online poker companies have made in the last decade this has to be one of the biggest innovations in online poker that I’ve seen other than Rush Poker. ” B.

“A great execution of a good idea that proves that even in the restricted environment of a shared software network, there’s plenty of room for immersive innovation. I’ve seen the idea in play before, but not to this extent. And not this well balanced.” K.

Please keep tuned and if you wish to be involved in next Tuesday’s big announcement, please feel free to contact me.

In the meantime, I am also very happy to say that this weekend Chilipoker will run its DeepStack Open in Costa Brava where almost 500 players will compete.

Alexandre Dreyfus, CEO Chilipoker

Why would anyone want to tell everyone on their FB when they hit a big score?

You have a new message:

"Hey mate I saw you won 10k just now. Congrats!.... Any chance of borrowing a few quid?"

You have a new message.

So obviously this won't be available to any of us who play in the US. Any chance that Tilt/Starts adopt some of these features?

Doesn't 2 people setting last-longer bets at the same cash table introduce an added dynamic at the table? Those not in the know of hte last-longer bet would be seemingly at a disadvantage. Wouldn't it also introduce implicit/explicit collusion issues?

It all certainly sounds interesting.

Has this happened yet?
Downloaded the client to have a look but I've never seen the client before so don't know if they've added anything new.......

Sweet, thanks.

I think the updates have just been made to their web page so far and not the actual client.

You can see the features inside the graphics at the top of the page but I don't think they have updated the client yet?......

I'm not gonna start playing on that site just cause I can now swap/sidebet using their software.... Nice feature, but far from mind blowing.

All the other stuff is pretty much useless and probably more advertising for them then anything else every time someone uses it... (social network stuff)

So I know this is only ChiliPoker but the idea of side bets and things like that during play is pretty cool and FT and PS should implement the same thing. The link is to the video of some chick showing the new stuff...

Oh yeah might as well say what it is...

Basically you can make last longer bets, buy pieces of each other, and things like that for tournaments. The site takes care of handling the bets and payouts so everything is smooth and easy.

I'm not trying to pimp ChiliPoker as I don't play there since I don't think it takes US players but I thought it was a cool idea that other sites should try out.

Linking to Facebook is a great idea. Good innovation overall.

This, except I'd be more interested in whether they plan to have rake capped at 10% of a big blind.

This is pretty huge advertising wise imo and I would be surprised if FTP/PS did not come out with something similar within 6 months. If people start pasting chili poker all over there facebook wall's it's amazing free advertising.

what network is this on? I am sure VPCEO had 'too' been a part of such huge changes in the poker world, he had to have his hand in this!
