I'd be up to and IW tourney, if anyone got the gumption to set it up.

Well the thing would be:
A) Finding a online pokergame we all agree on
B) Setting a time and Date that would work for everyone.

Hey man congrats!

I love to play NL HE, on-line usually at pokerstars. I also have a weekly homegame with friends. We play for 2 buck each, so it's less a competiton than an excuse to get drunk. :D

Although I prefer playing for real money, I'd play in an fake-money IW tourney. I'll look into what it takes to set one up at PSTARS.

There is nothing I hate more in life than Texas Hold'em. The ammount of spam and web adds for this beat any other kind I've gotten in years. How to be a champion, odds calculators, play for free, free training, win money... I'm bombarded with it. What's the sudden obsession with it all over the net?

I HATE Texas Hold'em, even just the name of it piss me off now.

Dont let the stupid spam ruin it for you Luvian, nothing like sitting around the table with your mates, having a few (quite a few) drinks, and playing some poker :D

Yeah I play it every couple of weeks with my mates. Good thing is that no matter who wins the money from the win goes to buying the drinks for the next gaming night so it works our well.

That's probably the most appropriate typo ever... </font>[/QUOTE][img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Agreed. Had to read it a few times before i found it.

Well, it seems I don't have enough frequent player points left to host a private tourney at PStars.

I spent a ton of them entering satellite tourneys trying to win a seat at the World Series of Poker and now I am short. At the rate I play, in a few weeks I'll probably have enough to host one, if nothing else comes up.

You can blame the internet itself. Internet poker has allowed just about anyone to score a inexpensive chance at the WSOP. Several years in a row now some no-name internet qualifier has won the millions.

Also, the use of hole-card cameras have made poker an appealing spectator sport on TV.

Poker ads are far superior to viagra or anti-spyware ads. Not to mention the "win a free video game system" ads. All those ads piss me off to no end.

I would love to get in on a tourny.

I just play on-line but it tends to be to easy. ;)
