Re: Locating players for home game online?
If you do a Google search for home poker games there are all kinds of sites devoted to registering and listing people looking for games and games looking for people. I also think Meet Up has a poker group in just about every city.

Re: It takes all kinds.
Does anybody else really use their online poker site for networking? When I sit next to someone in real life I have no problem getting to know them but online the games go so quickly I don't really see the point.

Re: Free Roll
Somehow I belive you, Rod. Sounds like you played the best option. If I can figure out how to get registered I'll see you there in January.

Re: The Free Poker Directory
I knew I had seen that blue chip logo somewhere! Before even joining this forum I had used Free Poker Directory and liked it. Thanks, Rod.

Re: Four Color Deck
Yeah, most people are old fashioned when it comes to things like this. I'm going to take that as a no. Anyone else?

Four Color Deck
I know there was another thread about this but instead of asking if you use it I would like to ask if you are willing to give it a try.Is anyone willing to listen to my propaganda?

Re: Shaking hands
I think my ultimate goal with "practising" poker is to act exactly the same at the table as I do all the time. I prefer to think about the long game.

Re: Poker Staking
I don't actually have any personal experience with staking but I consider the practise about as appealing as credit cards.

That's exactly my point. I think everyone gets caught up in the idea they have to be in control of everything all the time, themselves especially. I see so many miserable faces at poker tables I just want to pat them on the back and be l ...

Re: How would an online gambling crackdown affect live/home poker games?
I think the issue with online poker (like most commodities) is about taxes. The government has always liked to regulate anything it can make money from or at least it's backers (i.e. corporations) can make money from. You're only in trou ...

I have a theory that the best poker face is no poker face at all. The only way you can really get this to work is if really know the game and you are in it to have fun. When I make jokes during hands and look like I'm enjoying myself I t ...
