    Summertop: I bet there aren't even a million chips in play yet.

    Brainking claims to have 78992 players at the moment of this writing. That means close to 80 million chips where available the first day Poker was available. Granted, the overwhelming majority of those players never actually play here, so the total number of chips "in play" is less. But it only takes a 1000 players to have a million chips.

    There is a bug in the no limit games.... most people dont play them, but sometimes if you bet all in, you win double the amount of your bet, even if the person you went against doesnt have the same amount of money as you do.


    another one, if the board has an ace high flush, or even a 4 card flush, the person with the highest card of that suit in their hand should win, but right now it has them all at a tie for the pot. That is wrong.

    While this is very reasonable for Full Tilt and Stars, with their fast pace tables, I think it'd be OK to have a tougher limit here at BrainKing, but not less than once per hour. And maybe 90 minutes for pawns or something.

    nodnarbo: I thought about chips -> brains, but don't like the idea. You really get into a grey area, the inflation of chips would be a serious problem, and collusion would become a serious problem. Better forget that idea imo.

    And again, I don't see the problem with people reloading more than once a day. This is Poker for fun, not for money. What do people earn from dumping away chips and reloading frequently? Only playing experience, nothing more. You will never be able to reload when you have more than the starting chips, I really don't see the point in excluding players for a day when they lost a couple of chips.

    Ämne: Re: Prizes
    coan.net: I think that is a GREAT idea! That is probably the best way to control the amount of chips in play. Something visual in the poker room is definitely a good idea, maybe make certain items upgradable, such as a prize cup, you can get the next biggest one once you get to a certain chip count. The only thing that might get in the way is that we don't want to add to many things to the poker interface that don't have anything to do with the game and would crowd the screen.
    Another thing that Fencer could maybe consider is allowing the exchange of chips for brains. You could cash at a certain exchange rate of chips to brains. That might be kind of getting too close to playing for real money, but since you can't actually get cash for brains it might be OK.

    Bwild: I just started playing on facebook a little bit ago, used to play on PartyPoker...not sure how frequently you can get more chips as I don't bust. But, I think we all agree:
    1. Players must be able to get more chips if they bust
    2. Player may only do so, "once in a while". Once a day is the max, but I think shorter time periods would be nice.

    Personally, I think 3 per hour is too frequent. Nothing more boring than sitting at a table when someone just goes "All In" on every hand...knowing they can get them back whenever they want.

    I don't think there is an issue of flooding the market. I seriously doubt Fencer will let you get more chips whenever you want. I bet there aren't even a million chips in play yet.

    As for "awards", they are awesome. But, I'm not sure you should spend chips on them. Nothing wrong with having millions of chips in the bank. You should be limited to how many you can bring to a table.

    you then say ***Let players always get one renewal per day*** which is it to be.....or am I missing your point here


    Yes, you miss the point...they get 5 free to use any time they "bust"...they ALSO still get the daily amount. So when they start out, they can go back and get more chips 5 times (all in one day or spread across multiple days). After that, they can only go back and get chips once a day. So, if they start playing and end the day with chips, the next day, they can actual get more chips SIX times. But once those five free ones are gone, they can only get chips once a day.

    I don't believe there should just be unlimited amount a chips you can get in a day - otherwise, what is the point. This was mentioned before (by AbigailII), but will tell you what I think would be good.

    Everyone who has less than X chips, get Y new chips (maxed out at X)

    So how I would do it:

    If a person has under 1,000 chips, they can go to their profile and click on an option to get more chips.

    A pawn can get 250 additional chips a day (current lowest amount table is 250, so if they lose a lot - they can still play at least once a day)

    A Bishop & above can get 500 additional chips a day

    So if someone has 800 chips - they can go to their profile and click "add more chips" - and they will be back up to 1000 chips.

    So if someone has 100 chips - they can go to their profile and click "add more chips" - and a pawn will then have 350 chips, everyone else would have 600 chips.

    ===========================

    I would also like to throw out an idea for something to look at in the future. Since some people will just keep gaining & gaining chips forever (well if they are good poker players) - the idea to have "awards" or "prizes" that people can "buy" with their chips. Like a 50,000 chip award where a player can turn in 50,000 chips to get this award to display on their profile (of even little ribbons under the picture on a poker table if they wanted - or a little star on the picture on a poker table for every award that they have got.)

    This is just a quick thought - a lot more detail & prizes & awards & ribbons & stuff like that can be thought of... nothing to really do right now, but as time moves on and people start to accumulate more chips - it's an idea to help "remove" some of the chips from the system... and reward the players who achieve it at the same time.

    Ämne: Going south
    Another rule that I don't remember being mentioned yet: going south. The term going south (also referred to as ratholing) describes a player winning a pot, leaving the table and buying back in with less chips. So he effectively "secures" his winnings (puts it into his rat hole) and will continue to play only for the minimum. This is commonly considered bad etiquette and most places don't allow this. Online, a common counter measure is to set a time limit. Say you have 1500 chips at a 500 minimum table and leave. During the next hour, if you want to rejoin this table, you have to take at least 1500 chips to the table. After that period you can buy in for the minimum of 500 again. Of course, this doesn't affect other tables, so you can always leave and enter a different table for the minimum if you are not comfortable with your current deep stack.

    Oh, and are there waiting lists for full tables? Would be a good idea too.

    All of this of course for the future! I think time out and blind posting and showdowns etc. have a higher priority obv.

    puupia: Flooding the market is no problem at all. Every player can chose what stakes to play. If you have 1 million chips, playing 5/10 doesn't seem to be the most fun. If you have 1000 chips, playing 300/600 doesn't seem to be fun at all.

    New players with their puny stack of 1000 chips have no chance whatsover playing agains someone with for example 1 million chips.

    Wrong. If I have 1000 chips and sit down at a table and play against a guy with 1000000 chips - we are both playing for 1000 chips effectively in every hand. Him having 999000 more doesn't change anything, it doesn't give him better chances to win any hand. If you play a ring game, you can leave the table whenever you want, so play does not continue until one player has all the chips (in which case the rich would obviously be favored). Of course you can't catch up with the rich guy in just a couple of hands, but he had to play a lot to get these chips, so that's OK.

    You chose the maximum you play for in any given hand by selecting your buy in. So the maximum is already under your control. Now you can chose the minimum by entering a table that suits your wishes. Removing minimum buy ins is a bad idea.

    EDIT: for limit tables this is obviously a non-issue overall

    To keep the game balanced the play money economy needs to be balanced. I say rake should be put into use before market is flooded with chips!

    To keep the game interesting people should have similar amount of chips available. I think tables should have maximum buy-in instead of minimum wich is in use now!

    Ändrat av Summertop (23. februari 2009, 21:45:20)
    In your (brainking.info) blog, you mentioned being able to request more chips...I have a few suggestions for this feature:

    1. Only let people renew chips only when they go bust.

    2. Let every player have 5 (or some finite number) of free renews. So players learning can get more chips at the beginning. All 5 can be used in one hour, one day, however long they need. Again, can only renew if you don't have chips. So, you can't use them all up to get 5 times the normal starting amount.

    3. Let players always get one renewal per day. Again, only if you don't have any chips.

    4. Reward people for playing other games on brainking. You could have a daily bonus players could grab, based on their activity with the other turn based games. You could base it on number of ratings (provisionsal?), number of running games, number of moves, or any combination.

    1. Flag the player as timed out.
    2. Force a fold, no matter what!
    3. Don't deal them in to a new hand till they unflag themselves.
    4. Let existing players boot timed out players (so others can take their seat).


    1. Yes!
    2. I think it is actually OK to let them check in the hand on that they timed out, just do it instantly when the action comes to them and don't wait for them to return.
    3. Timed out should be = sitting out, so Yes!
    4. Might be an option as might be auto boot them when they timed out and the big blind comes across them.
