Previously I reviewed Blockchain Poker (link to Part1) but I think my review was incomplete and only covered a few of the basics. I make a "Part 2" for this review because I am lately having some quality time with this platform that provides entertainment value to poker players.
My journey in Blockchain Poker seems to be very exciting. I played lots of free tournaments and my plan to reach the 100k satoshi minimum limit for withdrawal is closer.
I also managed to earn a few thousand satoshis in BTC and BSV but my main objective is reaching 100k BCH sats.
Roadmap
I really missed this one in the previous review and shouldn't have. The project is developing and has a very detailed plan.
The roadmap gives us all steps of development until 2022 and it seems that when all these changes are implemented, we would be talking about a state-of-the-art online poker room.
Affiliate Program
I have never given affiliate links for anything in my posts in read.cash but blockchain.poker will be my exception to the rule. My affiliate link if you want to join is this one (link).
The referral system is very generous providing an 8% rakeback for each of the invited new users. The affiliate link will be important when some top poker players will start using the platform. Judging by the development plans, it is possible that soon quite a few will want to join. However, poker players would want to find at least the same features the big poker rooms have. Pokerstars UI is what is at the top for many years and a desktop environment with smooth multi-tabling options is a must.
Weekly Leaderboards
Information about the top earners, the best tournament players, numbers of tournament cashouts and more.
Reward System
Blockchain Poker has a generous reward system as well. Each time a player generates rake, he receives BCH Points that after a certain limit can exchange for a percentage of rakeback. This bonus can reach up to 50% rakeback, however, this will require a long grind at higher stakes of cash games and tournaments.
Security Settings
The two-factor authentication helps secure our accounts and is important to set up when we have value we care about in a website. Correctly it is not a requirement for most users of this platform, as for the time being most games are at very low value. However as the platform will keep developing and attract more players, it will become a requirement for all. Serious players should already have 2FA set as it creates an extra layer of security.
That's it for the time being. Maybe I will be back with a third part of my Blockchain Poker adventure. It is a cool way to spend some time when I feel there is nothing else to do and to be honest I enjoyed it a lot. However, poker requires having time to play, have no worries outside of the game, and be focused on counting odds and putting your opponents in ranges.
