August Rake Race Result
The top three prizes in the August rake race have now been paid out, and the winners were:
1st place: Dainiux (2000 chips awarded to him)
2nd place: Mitoman (1200 chips)
3rd place: Bing88 (800 chips)
That left nine players for me to pick a random winner for the consolation prize of 200 chips. How to pick a random winner? Deal a hand of poker, of course! I videoed the occasion so you can see how the prize was awarded…
September 2023 Bonus Rakeback Reward Offer
This month I am going to add rakeback to that already paid to players by SWC Poker. You can read about the Krill rewards program offered by SWC here, it basically rewards players more and more the longer they are involved with SWC Poker. But for new players, the rakeback is quite low, which offers an incentive to play more on the site to build up that rakeback percentage. SWC Poker pays rakeback daily to players under this Krill rewards feature.
For my players, I am going to have rakeback added to this scheme for play during September 2023. To qualify for the bonus you need to play multiple times during the month. I am splitting the month into ten blocks of three days, and you will earn one point for each block within which you play. Earn 5 points to qualify for an extra 5% rakeback, which will be applied to your play throughout the month and paid during the first few days of October. More than 5 points will increase your bonus as follows:
5 points earns 5% extra rakeback
6 points - 8%
7 points - 12%
8 points - 16%
9 points - 20%
10 points - 25 % extra rakeback
The ten blocks of three days are September 1 - 3, 4 - 6, 7 - 9, 10 - 12, 13 - 15, 16 - 18, 19 - 21, 22 - 24, 25 - 27 and 28 - 30.
The first block has already passed, and six players who played between 1 and 3 September have each already gained one point.
I hope that is fairly clear - let me know if it confuses you!
News - Mixed Games MTTs Added to Daily Schedule, Euro-Friendly Times - with Added Value for You
That’s right, SWC Poker has now added a couple of tournaments to the daily schedule for those of us who enjoy mixed games and are based in Europe to enjoy. We need to play these as much as possible to make sure they stay on the schedule: they will start at 10pm and 11pm and on weekdays each have a buy-in of 500 chips. I played three of these already, and won one of them! Read about it in this post on Substack.
At weekends the buy-in of the 8-game tournaments is increased to 1000 chips: also, on Sundays there is a 5000 chip 12-game tournament on the schedule: this one is a pretty high buy in so it might not run too often.
Please make the effort to play these tournaments as often as you can. If you have any other friends who are interested in mixed games poker please let them know about the site. As long as they use my affiliate link, quote the bonus code allthegames and write to me at rabatowl@yahoo.com to tell me their username, they will receive 2000 chips as an introductory bonus along with two 500-chip tournament tokens.
NOTE: once per month I will try to get some of my players to play in one of these tournaments and if I can get 4 of you to enter, SWC Poker will give a last-longer prize of a 500-chip tournament token for whichever one of you goes deepest. We will try this tonight — please try to play these tournaments tonight. If 4 of you play the Drawmaha tournament at 10pm CET, the prize will be applied to that tournament. If not, maybe 4 of you can play the 8-Game at 11pm CET. If this doesn’t happen, we will try again next week.
