How about that, crypto wizards and early adoption experts? We hit a huge milestone and this little tap-for-rewards game is just getting started. 😎
First off, if you haven’t started tapping and collecting TREASURE coins yet, there are only a million people ahead of you, so you can still be early.
Send a Telegram message to @Treasure_Tapper_Bot to get started, or just scan the big ol’ QR code with your trusty mobile device. 👇 In a matter of seconds, you’ll be tapping and collecting your first token rewards with Treasure Tapper.
This Treasure Tapper train has only been rolling for a few weeks now, but we’ve already received an amazing reception from the wider web3 community, who apparently love tapping their phones for in-game rewards.
Thanks to Telegram’s recent mini app platform and integration with the web3 functionality of The Open Network (TON blockchain), crypto games are now simpler than you ever imagined. With mini apps like Treasure Tapper, there’s no need to download a game– It’s launched within Telegram, the trusted messenger app you’re probably already using.
So why are they all here, tapping away day after day? The token frenzy!
The rewards that players are collecting like crazy will soon be minted as crypto tokens on both TON and GalaChain, where owners will have the ability to swap them for other crypto using sites like GalaSwap!
When is Token Minting?
As you’ll often hear in the crypto world, we cannot yet divulge that information, so let’s just say soon.
Here’s the thing. No matter when it happens, it will be in the future, which means you can definitely collect more TREASURE in the game than you currently have. We think you’ll agree that having more will be better in the long run, especially once minting rewards has begun.
How Will it Work?
Once it’s time to mint your $TREZ tokens, you’ll have to meet a couple simple requirements to ensure there’s somewhere to deliver your tokens. Minting reward tokens will not be automatic, but will require some action on your part, so be sure to keep watch over the Treasure Tapper Announcements channel and other official communication.
Watch out for Scammers!
A true web3 visionary is vigilant at all times, ensuring that they don’t fall for anything. Such vigilance is easier than you may think:
Be suspicious of links
Say something if you see something suspicious
Only believe what’s announced on official channels
Don’t trust messages about Treasure Tapper from strangers or the Treasure_Tapper_Bot

Ready to up your poker game? Sweep It Poker, Gala Games’ free-to-play casual poker game, is here to help you hone your skills while giving you a chance to win $GALA in our weekly Sweepstakes!
In this series of blog articles, we’ll dive into the basics of poker to get you playing like a pro in no time. In this series, we’ll stick to the games currently included with Sweep It Poker, Texas Hold’em and Omaha Hold’em.
Let’s start with the fundamentals
Understanding the Basics: Poker Hand Rankings
Mastering poker begins with knowing the hand rankings. Here’s a quick rundown from the highest to lowest:
Royal Flush: A, K, Q, J, 10, all of the same suit.
Straight Flush: Five consecutive cards of the same suit.
Four of a Kind: Four cards of the same rank.
Full House: Three cards of one rank and two cards of another.
Flush: Any five cards of the same suit, not in sequence.
Straight: Five consecutive cards of different suits.
Three of a Kind: Three cards of the same rank.
Two Pair: Two different pairs.
One Pair: Two cards of the same rank.
High Card: When no other hand applies, the highest card wins.
Betting is a crucial aspect of poker that can make or break your game. Here’s a breakdown of common betting actions:
Check: If no one has bet, you can choose to check, passing the action to the next player. This action is signified by the player saying “check” or knocking on the table felt.
Bet: Wager chips into the pot. Once a bet is made, players must call, raise, or fold. Betting can be verbally announced or visually as the player slides or tosses chips into the pot area.
Call: Match the current bet by announcing “call” and contributing chips to the pot.
Raise: Increase the current bet by announcing a raise or adding at least 2X the chips that have already been bet. If you don’t have twice as many chips in your stack, you must raise all in or fold.
Fold: Discard your hand and forfeit the current round, indicated by tossing cards face down onto the table.
Your position at the poker table affects your strategy. Position in this case refers to your location on the table relative to the “Dealer” button, which moves clockwise around the table hand by hand.
Early Position: The first few seats to act. Play conservatively here because you have less information about other players’ hands. If you’re first to act in a new round of betting with several players, you’ll probably want to let another player open the betting for that round.
Middle Position: The seats in the middle of the table. You can start to play a bit more aggressively in the middle position, but you should still be cautious. A raise here could risk a reraise from a late-position player with awesome cards.
Late Position: The last few seats to act, including the dealer. You have more information on how opponents are playing, allowing you to be more aggressive. The player with the Dealer button has the last choice, allowing them to “position bet” if every other player has checked in that round.
Play Tight-Aggressive: Focus on playing strong hands aggressively. This makes you less predictable and maximizes your winning potential. Play into your patience and fight the urge to play every hand no matter your cards.
Bluff Wisely: Bluffing can be powerful but should be used sparingly. Always consider your position and your opponents’ tendencies. More chips are won by betting appropriately on mathematically winning hands than bluffing with rags (bad cards).
Observe Opponents: Pay attention to how your opponents play. Look for patterns and tendencies that you can exploit. This doesn’t necessarily mean only physical and vocal mannerisms– More often, it’s patterns in their betting and raising habits. Any time the cards are shown at the end of a hand, there is a lot to learn from your opponents.
Bankroll Management: Set a budget for your poker play and stick to it. Whether you’re playing in a real money game or a casual free game like Sweep It Poker, never chase losses.
Sweep It Poker offers a fantastic platform to practice these basics without the risk of losing real money. The more you play, the more entries you can stack for the weekly Sweepstakes, enhancing your skills in a fun and engaging environment surrounded by members of the Gala community.
Stay tuned for our next blog post where we’ll dive deeper into advanced strategies and tips to help you dominate the poker table. Thanks for being a part of our vibrant community and may your hands always be winning!
