    Want to start a Poker Website?

    Like PartyPoker?


    If you have to know how and want to, write up a proposal.

    I want to start one too!

          Detail me the costs in a proposal... I wouldnt know where to begin... I assume the backend coding of the database and application.

          Also include turnaround time after start of coding.. include other costs as well.

                    I figured that much... if someone is interested, I am looking for proposals.


                    What kind of coder would be needed for such a project?

                      I read somewhere that the guys who started PartyPoker outsourced all the original coding work to a firm in India and got it done pretty cheap ... but there shit is top of the line server/security wise.

                      I just posted this in another thread, pertains to what you're talking about:


                      Think about this ...

                      I'm pulling these number out of my ass, but starting to trip now that I'm thinking about it.

                      Average time it takes to play a hand ... let's say 1 - 3 minutes depending on number of people at the table, etc..

                      On PartyPoker, the average difference in 'hand numbers' between one hand and the next is, say, ... 300 ( I think it's actually more).

                      Let's say that 1/3 of the players on there are playing for real money ...

                      so that's 100 raked hands every two minutes, with an average rake of ... ohh .. let's say $4. $400 every two minutes.

                      $400 * 30 = $12,000 per hour.

                      $12,000 * 24hrs = $288,000.00 per day.

                      $288,000 * 365 = $105,120,000.00 per year.

                      Of course, like I said, pulling these numbers out of my ass ... but they are fucking making bank either way.

                                  alot of pokersites run that software (like choicepoker.com). Takes at least 5 boxes to run on (windows 2000! ouch)

                                    the hardware pay isnt even remotely interesting... you need a license and a bank that backs things up, ive looked at it and if youre not in it for 500k dont even bother (unless you wanna do it illegally hehe)

                                      jsut to give you an idea how mutch an online poker site can bring->

                                      From their launch in September of 1999 to mid April 2002 Paradise Poker dealt over 177,000,000 hands

                                      A modest average of one-dollar rake per hand (some analysts think it may be significantly higher) put Paradise?s earnings at previously unimagined levels.


                                      so that's 177 million$ in just 2 years

                                      god damn
