I did. I always listen to radio. I got hooked when it was good.
I apologize for using the term "freak." Bad call. Would have been better with "junkie," more jokey. Came off more seriously than initially intended.

I am customer support for Seals. We've gotten some traffic and a player named "donkdown" from this thread so I thought I'd come say hi.
We use only Bitcoins for deposits and cashouts. All accounts and bets are denominated in Bitcoins. Deposits take about 10 seconds from the time you send coins. Cashouts take 2hr on average max of 8hr.
There is often FR action at the equivalent on 3NL and 6NL. And there is frequent HU and shorthanded action all the way up to 180NL. 4 games are running right now, 2 of them are HU at 60NL and 120NL.
The hourly freerolls are just to let players without coins have something to play and maybe get their first coins to try out. Definitely not ballin'.
I am 'freemoney' and I'm around all the time to answer questions and give action.

You definitely win for the most retarded name for a poker site ever created.

I'd never play on such as shody and unsecure site, not too mention one that uses a deflationary currency.
However there is one huge plus. The site claims to have a max rake of about 20-30 cents (.1 Bitcoin). That's pretty awesome if true

What in particular makes you think the site is shoddy and insecure? I'm not sure what you mean by deflationary, what do you think is wrong with Bitcoin? If you are worried about losing value you can keep a roll denominated in dollars and convert to BTC in seconds on MtGox and and send to Seals in seconds more, Seals requires no confirmations, you only have to get the transaction to the network. It would be reasonable to do this even between every buy-in if you wanted to absolutely minimize Bitcoin exposure.
The rake is capped at .1BTC site wide. If Bitcoin value drops too low we'll have to increase it, but we're trying to hold the line at .1BTC.
On top of the low rake there is an automatic rakeback program. Your RB% goes up with volume and never falls. Right now there is also a weekly competition to give incentive for starting games.

Not only that, they win the prize for their donkdown username "sealwithclubs" not matching their website name.
Hero is the only sponsor here. Noone can afford the $100/month to outbid what they pay for banner advertising.

Is your dealing audited by a third party? Is player money held in trust or segregated accounts? What sort of security do you have to stop cheating Bitcoin being deflationary is self explanatory
I don;t expect you guys to have the above since you are small and new. Which is exactly why I consider it shoddy and insecure. Even some of the traditionally safer casinos are on rocky ground nowadays.

Micon looked over the algorithm for the RNG (like a boss) and says it's playin great.
