Guys: Register for more of the Betcoin specific tournaments! It seems that there aren't many, just the "Bankroll Builder"'s, a late night 25mBTC entry and a few satellites. There is only one Betcoin specific Sit&Go currently listed and it has 0 registrations. Maybe there are more that I'm not aware of?
I know the WPN MTTs have way more action and players, but open up a Betcoin tourney when you're in a cash game or another MTT. I recommend this for a few reasons:
(1) We keep the rake in Betcoin, showing our support for the site and bitcoin. (The bitcoin deposit options on the other WPN skins are annoying compared to how easy it is on Betcoin, and other WPN skins have NO bitcoin withdrawal options (plus the Blackchip withdrawal fees are just egregious), vote with your money)
(2) Affiliate payouts are higher for Betcoin specific tourneys, this also helps to keep the money in our little ecosystem.
(3) Allows people to use their 'Tourney Money' that is awarded through surprise boxes.
(4) The more popular the Betcoin specific tournaments are, the more reason people have to move from the other WPN skins to our site, thus increasing ring game traffic, which will then give SWCpoker players more reason to move over.
TLDR; Play more Betcoin-specific tournaments! You can find them by filtering for only "tourney money".
EDIT: A thought for those who control Betcoin poker games, this is important. Create some mBTC-only tournaments that run at a scheduled time if they have at least 2 players. They must have a guarantee, but you can start small. Initial guarantee can be like 5 buy-ins, then increase it as they get more traffic. Maybe that's what you're trying to do with the "Bankroll Builder" tournaments, but for some reason they don't seem to run, perhaps if you forced them to run at a scheduled time rather than what you're doing now (waiting for whatever the minimum player count is then de-listing them when it isn't met.) Maybe the minimum player count is too high at the moment? Once people see that a tournament is in late-registration and has overlay, they are likely to join and eventually push it over guarantee.
EDIT2: I saw something about "jackpot SNG's" or something to that effect referenced a couple pages back, will those be Betcoin-specific sit and gos?
natmccoy, we are just seeing this and it is excellent. Can we also discuss it at
www.betcoin.ag where we can develop and cultivate more ideas sand feedback here. Jackpot sng's are coming in 2-4 weeks.
