... Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 (edited) I have been looking into methods for gambling with Asylum Life money. I have found a website that allows you to host private poker tables. I set up a table with parameters that I feel would allow many players to participate. Big blinds would be $2,500 and small blinds would be $1,250. The minimum buy-in would be $50,000 (20 BB) and the maximum buy-in would be $250,000 (100 BB). I wanted to know if players would be interested in participating. As well, if enough people are interested, I could facilitate a small tournament with buy-ins. *Note* Players would have to make a account on www.bluffave.com to play Webpage for Poker: http://www.bluffave.com/AsylumLifePoker Edited December 31, 2016 by Maric Eric916 likes this Link to comment
Riot INC Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 (edited) Fuck yah I love poker. How exactly would this work in terms of paying each other. Would it just go on trust? Edited December 31, 2016 by Riot INC Shaquandra likes this Link to comment
Bera Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 Cash tables would never work, would have to be done in tournament format with a bot receiving the buy-in and having the winnings wired to the winners because otherwise it would be aids trying to pay people Link to comment

Well, I would require that you deposit the money to me by robbing in-game. But, this may seem suspicious to some players. I haven't figured out how I would do payouts or how often I would do payouts.

I would want to try it out with only a few players to see how it would work out. I haven't fully thought out how this will function. I was hoping for some suggestions. A tournament would do best to start, likely. Link to comment

Mayhem Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 Trust goes a long way here, and i doubt many people will trust you with their money. I mean maybe if a site was designed where players can deposit in game cash to you and have it added on there and same goes for withdrawing. But most likely that would be against their rules. But a sort of gambling system would be entertaining (besides lottery) Crossfade likes this Link to comment

Sneaky Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 Seems suspect. Lots of trust involved with people paying up and a lot of potential for people to just scam. Link to comment

Its easy for me to hold 50k to build trust but as more players join and the pool grows i can pull out with free money at any time. Not saying itd happen for sure but people are scummy with money buying so its food for thought. Link to comment

Ultimately id love to see some stuff on asylum like a blackjack game and slots. Would be a fun addition. Ive seen it elsewhere so i know its possible Donald likes this Link to comment

Ive seen it elsewhere so i know its possible Trust would obviously be the biggest concern here, If it were be something advertised on the forums an admin could give a guarantee. If anybody complains that they were not paid for their winnings it could be investigated. I think the stakes are high when it comes to scamming, we all witnessed what happened last time.

Crossfade Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 (edited) I would totally play but a admin would need to be holding the money... I feel like it would be an awesome add to this community however I may sound like an idiot but it needs to be limited to 18+ due to it being gambling. Even tho it's on a video game.. I know people under 18 have done worse but gambling is something that shouldn't be accessed by people underage... I'm sure others feel the same and I'm sure others don't.. dont hate Edited December 31, 2016 by CrossFade Link to comment
Henry Facesmasher Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 They should add poker ingame. That would be bad ass Link to comment

goyney Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 I think it would be cool if there was an area of the map dedicated to gambling, similar to other life servers. Could have coin flip, poker and other small games for people to play. I don't know how hard these kinds of things are to implement but I know it's easier to say than be done. Link to comment

RexProcer Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 I recommend looking at EOH Poker on EVE as a model. They use bankers who get paid a %. The trust thing is always the issue. Also you have to figure out rake, structure etc. I have >20 years of poker experience, so if you need help with trying to figure out how to set this up, let me know. Link to comment
