For Sportsbook funding ? If so why not use an Altcoin. I'm depositing the same amount in the next few days & 50+ dollar fees is absurd.Originally posted by BrickJamesComment -
No I moved it from 5dimes to my blockchain wallet to my bitpay card wallet to my bitpay card because now the bitpay card makes you use their wallet.Originally posted by BeatTheJerk
All said and done I was out about 50 bucksComment -

You are paying for one step too many there.Originally posted by BrickJames
BitPay do not insist you use their wallet. They ask you to use a Payment Protocol wallet. Just download either Electrum or Mycellium wallets and instead of withdrawing to blockchain, withdraw from book to that and then direct to card load..Comment -

Bitcoin Core also... but isnt 'worth it' for a noviceComment -
Ok I'm glad that routine works now at least, even though the fees are not suitable.Originally posted by BrickJamesComment -
Optional I know you're a lot smarter than me, I tried for about 2 freaking days to figure that s*** out I might have been drunk but I just couldn't figure it out and ended up downloading their stupid wallet anywaysOriginally posted by OptionalComment -

You must have gone the wrong direction somehow, as it's pretty much just clicking next a few times and only takes maybe 1.5 mins to download and make a new wallet.Originally posted by BrickJames
Anyways, as long as you know.
At the risk of confusing things... you can also paste the bitpay load link into this decoder and get the details you need to load the card the old way direct from blockchain https://decoder.bip70.org/.Comment -

Just be aware they dont want you to do that. They cant stop it but they will notice you are doing it, as they wont get the auto generated Payment Protocol alerts about the transfer.Originally posted by BrickJames
Not sure if they will say anything but just so you know..Comment -
How low do you think it can fall guys?Comment -

That's the last price I seriously considered dropping most of my savings in to it, but didn't. Would like a do over..Comment -
Okay optional, I said in an earlier post that you were smarter than me but I retract that statement.Originally posted by Optional
"Most of your savings "?
Let me give you a hint pal. Never put more than 10% into any one thing.
Some people would suggest 2%Comment -
No lower than zero. Promise.Originally posted by Outsider626

Well, by savings I meant about 12k I had in a regualr savings account an allow myself to spend.Originally posted by BrickJames
I decided last year to invest that in playing mid level buyin multi day poker tournies with a view to be good enough and ready to go to WSOP 2018 for a month or so and try to win a bracelet.
The other option at the time was drop that into Bitcoin at about 2k.
I've taken a couple of trips to vegas and 4 other poker playing holidays to Melbourne in the last year, had a lot of fun, won about 12k but spent about 16k on buyins and another 4 or 5k on the travel.
So, the savings is about exhausted and I still havent even won a tourney... soooo... I want a do over!!!

I've been playing poker my whole life and I wouldn't even try to take a run at it.
Even though I have had some very good runs. Very bad ones alsoComment -
Hey pal it's your money do whatever you want with itComment -
Please look at the study the state of New Jersey did on poker the skill game.
They found only about 10% when and only about 5% are consistent winners.
About the same amount as if you rolled dice in a casino.Comment -
That is the hook of it, it seems beatable.Comment -
Never said I wanted to be a pro. Had a plan to just play $300-$600 range buyin deep stack multi day tournies to target the $1500 and under WSOP events like that. Just focusing on that one style of play and level of player was the plan. Following poker festivals around. And despite your 20/20 hindsight analysis, I think you'd be quite surprised by my stats. I've gone close many times in good company. Probably already have a better ranking on Hendonmob than any of you guys who think grinding for years playing all sorts of random formats against random player skill levels is the only way to go too. I was simply under funded for the level I chose and made an error at one festival where I broke from the plan and spent about 5k on events I should not have. Still hoping to make it back for WSOP 2018 but have had to scale back the road. Not playing Aussie Millions for example... which is really pissing me off right now. Playing that was a big part of the planned route. Anyway, thanks for the kick whilst I am down!Originally posted by BrickJames
