I am going to try one tomorrow. See how I go.
Also if anyone plays pokerstars I have set up a club on there so we can play against each other. Not those crazy fucking russians.
I'll send the details to whoever wants them.
How I picture King_Rat
mmm he slowrolled that mother fucker.
Yeah I'll be getting out the little tux
And the hair!
I want to learn how to play poker. Seems like a good mind sport
Bumping this for pokerstars home games. PM if you want to get into our ''CLUB''
blinds? cash game?
just nlhe? or omaha too?
Hey Mo,
As there are only about 6-7 members at the moment we'll probably for the time just play little tournaments. It wouldn't be worth it with the rake to play cash games.
Trying to get it up to 20 members if we can. Just get some people in and play a mixed variety of games.
I really like Horse but some people might struggle. But mixing up the games is on the cards for sure.
Fairly cheap buy ins for starters I'd say. $5 a game that kind of thing.
It's pretty good for customising tournaments though. You can start with 20k stacks and have 20 minute blinds. I wouldn't do that as it would take forever but there are some good options.
So yeah NLHE, Omaha HI/Lo, Omaha, 5 cars stud and 7 card stud.
What are you looking for. I can play for a bit more than some of the others in the group.
that sounds like a good bit of fun man, do you just need my stars username?
i wasn't looking for anything in particular, just interested in what you guys are playing
i love me some mixed games, but yeh as you said, a lot of dudes don't like that, the other day a few mates were hanging at my place watching the footy and we ended up getting a 4 handed razz game going, was a lot of fun
i was always keen on stars home game options but don't know enough dudes who play online! my main poker buddy works for stars so obviously he can't play
i'm in!
Alright,
I'll have to send you a PM when I get home from work. Unless I can weasle my way onto facebook at work and post the details up here.
I know there is one guy on there who knows most forms. He fucking hates razz though but fuck him. It's all just playing the hands.
Yeah if you can get a few mates in might be cool too.
Home games is pretty sweet though, gives you tournament rankings in the club and shit like that.
But yeah might be single table tournaments NLHE for a little bit until we can get more people in who like different games.
What is your username?
Mosleeptillholdem.
hahaha brilliant!
i am more than happy with hold em, just be nice to play against people who aint russian!
Oh yeah, plus the money aint going to Russians.
But what is your username. I am going to do some stats checking.
Playerscope.
RaiseOnce
I want to play to but not good with the rules.
We are playing fake $, yeah?
Need to google the rules.
The Hong Kong rules:
First and 2nd cards, one open one close
third card, open
4th and 5th card: one open one close
And then player choose to open one of the closed card.
Wow Mo, you're really good.
Anyway
You are invited to join my private poker club for Home Games online.
That's it! Once I've approved your membership request, we'll be ready to start playing Home Games online together.
If you want to find out more, visit www.pokerstars.com/homegames
done. chowyunfatoz
What style are u guys playing?
We're just playing NL at the moment.
I want to play some horse tournaments. Every blind increase the game changes.
So it goes
Holdem
Omaha hi
Omaha hi lo
Razz
Stud
Stud Hi lo
Or something like that. They're always fun.
We want to do maybe just one game a week and try get everyone on board for about $10. Make a decent prize pool 10 minute blinds and 3000 starting chips. So it will go for a couple of hours. Just maybe on a Thursday night or something.
lol obviously not me, that's Phil Ivey, i will pm you my stars account...but if you pokerscope me, it looks fkn WOEFUL
although a couple of years ago i was quite a profitable player, used to grind properly had a working bank roll, paid myself out of bank roll, bought a bunch of guitars - but this was on full tilt
my stars account is mainly me fucking around when i get home...half the time i buy into small stakes sngs and then realise i'm too tired to play them properly... thinking about grinding again properly, like dedicating time and effort to it, keeping a spreadsheet of wins n losses and expenditures (ie taxis to and from casino and drinks at casino come out of bank roll etc) but i'm too busy with my real job and bands and whatnot
so a weekly $10 tourney would be perfect for me, just a bit of fun etc etc

Yeah why not?
i'm all pokered out, just spent 4 hours playing a tournament to lose on the bubble. bah humbug.
Internet now down for the first time in house history. Might not make this one. We'll see.
Winner!
lets do this.
nice one. Much better playing these home games than against people who are entirely randoms...
Yeah really enjoy it. Banter flowing from the guts. Needed a good split. Mo the money man.

did you play the 2nd one? what's your name on there?
was a good day yesterday
came 2nd in a 27 runner sng, came 8th in a time tourney and then won the 2nd home game....all whilst watching Godfather 1 and 2 on blu ray and eating too much food and smoking too much
my kinda day
27 runner sng? Wow
TillJames.
Did you somehow start that last game with $10,000? Or did you knock someone out first hand on an all in? I was pretty boozed, so I may have just missed it, but i do recall it taking me by surprise...
2nd or 3rd hand i think,
flopped an up n down straight draw and a flush draw, turned a straight, he shoved, i called
haha. nice. Let's do it again soon! Nice work ratsak.
Was it that early Mo?? I was trying to shake you off the flush draw but didn't put you on the straight draw as well
Was embarrassing to bomb out so early though... no one wants to be that guy
now i'm hooked again. Down to the last 3 in a $1, 180 player tourney. $50 if i win...
came 2nd, got $32. Can't complain!
I made a new thread with a slightly more relevant title. Just to save future confusions.
