Poker Night

Last night was a blast. We had a poker night. Aaron, Rob, Cole, Tim Morea, Lace and I played no limit Texas Hold'em with $10,000 chips. Blinds started at $100,200 and doubled every half hour. It was a lot of fun. I'm VERY interested in getting a weekly game going.

I'm envisioning something along the lines of a $5 buy in for $10,000 worth of chips. Winner take all (or we could do Winner takes 75% and second place 25% or something like that, that'd be cool too.)

Anyone who reads this blog (and there aren't many, I'm sure) let me know if you are interested. Comment on the format, comment on playing with actual money. It isn't a lot, but I'd be willing to forgo it if it mean more people would play.

I'm in, by the way this is Lacey. 5 bucks a week isnt too bad, it's cheaper then going to the movies and you have a chance of leaving with more money

As soon as I get a job and $5 becomes a meaningless amount of money I'd totally play that more often. I definitely need to brush up my skills.

why do you want my 5 dollars so badly? you could just ask for the money. i'd give it you long before i'd let you win it.

Easy,

When you play with real money, even low amounts of real money, you play differently. You don't call a 3,000 raise when you have 2-7 off suite just to see the flop. I truly think (and just about everyone I have talked to agreed) that it would keep the games more interesting.
