If anything I am surprised it has not happened already, after all if I were to guess which is the second most powerful industry besides exchanges in this market I would say the gambling industry would have that spot, it would be interesting if there is some public market research about this as playing poker with cryptocurrencies seems like a perfect match and yet the number of players currently playing is on the low side.

I would start from this forum, if you ask me. There are many, hundreds at least, poker players here, but in the official Bitcointalk Poker tournaments not more than 30 people are usually participating, and most of the time the number is below 20. Maybe we should create an opinion poll of a kind, asking bitcointalk users what buy-ins they would prefer, what schedules etc. I suspect that buy-ins in previous games were too high for most of the people: they fluctuated between $10 and $25. What if we set a $4 buy-in? We would get rid of annoying alts, usually infesting free rolls, and, at the same time $4 is an affordable price, right?

~ I like the initiative of sportsbet.io, this is one of the great companies that are excellent in terms of their platform, responsibility and trust, especially the commitment they have with their players, if they go getting into the online poker tournament initiative I don't want to miss it, this fresh news really gets many of us excited. Is there a particular date for sportsbet.io? Already the third chance is the winner! For sure this year we will see that new software for the total enjoyment of online tournaments.

Sportsbet.io were running password protected free rolls, and since the password was pretty easy to get(normally it was posted by Steve on this forum hours before start), we saw many of sitting out or going all-in each time clowns, which was annoying. Don't get me wrong, those were amazing tournaments still, I myself finished ITM couple of times

, and it was nice to play with familiar users, even if not winning at all, but I would suggest at least a small buy-in for such tournaments in the future.
