That tracking site seems woefully inaccurate for Chico, at least as far as hands played and results go.

For example, it's missing more than 2/3 of my hands, and many months the reported results are out by >10BIs. w/r out by close to 10bb/100.

Checked with a few friends. Similar feedback. Some it's made look much more awesome than they are, some not so much lol.

Just something to bear in mind.

Correct. I would not rely on that site for complete accuracy. I definitely wouldn't use it to make any big assumptions about players with less than 100k hands on there. Larger hand samples will give a better depiction about whether a player is actually winning over the long haul though. I mainly used it because my personal database would not be able to showcase as many hands on that bot. It's very likely that that particular bot is up or down a few thousand from what it shows, but it's definitely taken a decent chunk of money out of the games at 100NL by putting in a huge amount of volume.

Yeah, Chico software was probably easier to track back then when everything automatically refreshed itself. These days you have to actually click stuff before anything updates. I miss the old software.

Still waiting on address change before I put money in there, it's been about 24 hours since I sent the documents, so hopefully not much longer

I found the HUD that they offer, it looks pretty neat; considering it will be my first time using one I will stick with the basics until I get a good handle on it. Curious though, as to the information that a paid one would offer vs what the free one offers?

What is the steal/fold to a steal stat? Is that simply tracking raises from the button/folding to raises from button?

The paid ones will have more features like additional stats, detailed graphs and more customizable setups.

There is a user guide underneath the download on the download page for the free one. That should tell you everything you need to know.

If you have additional questions about HUD stats and definitions I would recommend doing some reading or posting in the forum linked below.

I initiated a small deposit via BTC this afternoon on Bet Online - Was taking an unusual amount of time for the network to go through one confirmation.

After one confirmation, I only received 40% of my deposit. I waited for a few others, and nothing.

I contact live support - They said it was not normal and escalated it to management. I called to verify and it seems they are working on it. Support told me I'll be contacted in 24 hours.

1 hour and some change later, and I still do not have the other 60% of my deposit. (yes it was all one transaction).


I don't get how a network/system could mess something up that would seemingly be automated. Would keep an extra eye on recent deposits.

After 24 hours I managed to get the address change and made a deposit. I went to transfer the funds into the poker room and got a message saying I was not allowed to do so

Anyway, evidently I have to wait 24-48 hours to play poker. I did select the 50% deposit bonus option, but as of now, that is not showing up anywhere -- but at least I did get credited with my full deposit lol


Going to have to be careful not to bust out (or figure out the crypto currency thing) -- that 7.5% fee for debit card purchase will add up!

Out of curiosity, are there certain states that the Chico network doesn't allow players to play from? I'm located in Missouri and I might be traveling around the next few months in nearby states and was wondering if they had any sort of geo block on players from specific states like some sites do.

I'm not aware of any states which are blocked from playing on the network. I didn't find any mention of any states within their rules page, but I only took a quick glance. You could ask them via live chat or email for better confirmation.

Yeah their chat support is OK but kinda slow and aggravating. I figured this might be quicker haha.

Anyone else having issues opening and closing tables? My entire client freezes and crashes and it's only when close a table or click the leave table button. Even happens with the replayer.

I asked a while back and someone said to diasble Internet Explorer but that didn't help. This probably happens 2-3 times per session.

Any ideas? Help is MUCH MUCH appreciated.

If you had any bTC payouts the last couple days, they probably got paid at 830EST time today... AFTER the surge in the price. If it had then tanked they'd pay you at the peak price. They've made thousands off me paying me right before BTC drops but giving me the pre-drop price.

i'm trying to educate myself on bitcoin, but not to a point where i feel comfortable enough to execute a transaction without doing something stupid

but with a 7.5% fee for CC deposits, BC might be a smarter option even if there is a dip in BC?

Would welcome any advice on how to do BTC strictly for gaming purposes

I have not figured out the best play here either. Right now my "bankroll" is in a crypto wallet which definitely feels like gambling. But also seems better than dealing with coinbase fees whenever I want to move money around? What do others do?

Once BOL gets around to doing whatever they need to do to give me full access (still can't get into the poker room, told me last night they are still reviewing my account; in the meantime, I donked off all my chips in the bloody casino), I will probably give BC a chance

I did a search on it in the forums yesterday but couldn't really find what i was looking for

From what I get, step 1 is to buy the currency; step 2 is to find a wallet to keep the currency; and step 3 is to transfer the funds from the wallet to the site -- although I read something about how you might need a second wallet to act as a buffer between your main wallet and the site??

Another thing I ran into that gave me pause was the mention of linking your bank account, which could take several days

Bank account --->Coinbase ----->Blockchain Wallet ----->Poker site

And vice versa. I don't think leaving the entire roll on the site is good. I also don't see leaving it in a crypto wallet subject to big fluctuations as all that appealing. I think Coinbase's fees would really eat into profits(I'm a low stakes player) if I moved money around with any regularity. rough system

That's odd man. I literally almost never have issues with the software.* When I do it's usually when there's a network wide disconnect issue and we see several other people posting about it in here, which is also pretty rare when compared to several other networks. What do your resources look like in Task Manager when you're having issues? Are any of them spiking to nearly 100%?

*I'm still occasionally posting my big blind in early position when I'm first sat at a table off of a wait list.

I haven't ever tried using it myself. If nobody else comes along to offer advice then I would suggest you contact either support by live chat or email and/or ask in the support thread for HoldemIndicator.

*I'm not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to moving crypto around from bank accounts to exchanges to wallets to sites and vice versa so I would recommend seeking out some better advice than what I talk about below.

https://professionalrakeback.com/how...nline-gambling

I believe everything in that article is still up-to-date, though I have not read through the entirety of it in a while. I know some people recommend using a different exchange than CB, but CB should be fine to get you started.

You don't have to leave your funds in crypto for any significant length of time. You really don't have to be exposed to the price swings for too long if you don't want.

I believe somebody recently recommended using Cash App to buy bitcoin and then sending it through your crypto wallet to the sites as a quick method for deposits.

If you're using CB then I believe you want to be using CB Pro because it offers the best rates for exchanging your crypto into USD.

You could also look into other exchanges or even the BitPay Card which functions like a debit card. You just sell them your crypto and they add the funds in USD to your card. *Never use that card to deposit onto the sites.

Bitcoin/crypto might seem intimidating at first, but it's super simple to use after you learn the steps. You'll be glad you learned and regret not learning how to do it sooner, I promise. Just always remember to use an intermediary wallet between the sites and the exchanges.

Big BTC gain overnight. If any of you have your BTC payout current listed as 'Authorized' in the cashier [and funds deducted from your balance], expect to get paid just after BTC takes a big drop (but you'll be given a BTC amount equivalent to the peak price). If BTC keeps gaining all day, then you won't even get paid today.

if you are trying to time your BTC cashouts with the market (to get the most BTC) you're an idiot... the poker room isn't an exchange, and shouldn't be treated like one... if you are diligent and send to an exchange as soon as you receive it, the fluctuation is MINIMAL...
