Any poker players here?

[Mal Brossard]

Just wondering how many other players we have here besides me.  Where do you play?  What games are your favorites?

Personally, I'm drew23235 on PokerStars (occasionally on Ultimate Bet and Party Poker too).  Favorite games are Limit Hold 'Em, Triple Draw, and HORSE.  The only live games I've played have all been no-limit Hold 'Em.

I was an obsessive poker player for a good two years. Only when I started becoming a regular on the boards is when I stop playing so much. I played for hours on Absolute Poker (dead money!) usually played 13/50 Limit Holdem. Then I was offered a free 50 bucks at Party Poker and ran it to about 2 grand and played 20/40 Limit for a while. Ive played on a bunch of the sites for little money but those are the 2 I use the big money on. Recently, you can find me once or twice a week on Party Poker as EstrangedGNR. I just play the multi-table sit and goes, any type of game.. Usually just for 20-50 bucks tops.

I heard so many people cheat on those sites it's ridiculous.

I play every so often with mates and we'll all put a fiver in.  I don't play online cause I know i'll just get addicted or something.  It's a lot of fun with mates - I love bluffing my way through games.

I could never pay attention enough to get the hang of it. Maybe one of these days.................

[Kujo]

Ummmm, yeah. I don't play either .

Maybe all of us who will be in Vegas, who don't play, should get together for a few hands

[SLCPUNK]

I would not mind hitting a blackjack table with ya.........

[Kujo]

OK, but I've never played that one either

[SLCPUNK]

Guys like us have better luck at Green Valley (the locals casino.) It is the ONLY time I have ever won money in LV. Won a few hundred in abou 20 minutes, then left right away. The little lady next to me won 1000 bucks on nickle slots.........

I have a feeling we won't be gaming in our hotel however..........

[Kujo]

Yeah, going to have to walk all the way across the street

I hear the Shirley Temples there kick ass though

That is right up my alley............although I have been known to go buck wild after drinking several iced teas...........

Well you heard wrong then. Pokerstars is completly safe and its the best poker site on the internet

I remember someone getting caught cheating on Pokerstars. Its rare, and they have good protection, buts its going to happen.

Also, sometimes people sit in the same room and play the same tournament and seeing both there hands gives them an advantage, and then when it gets to a crucial point, one guy dumps chips to the other. They play on the same bankroll and make alot of money. They just make new screen names every week or so to keep hidden. Again, its always gonna happen, but its rare and shouldnt be a reason to not play online poker.

I know. I've been saving this little gem from after the Hammerstein show on May 15th.

[SLCPUNK]

Awww shit............

That was right after the Calamari course too.

[Skeba]

I play... Mostly with my friends but sometimes when I'm bored I play some freeroll tournaments of no limit hold'em. A good way to pass time, but at my current financial situation, I'd most propably be fucked if I tried to make actual money out of it.

[Neemo]

i play a bit too, not online though, it's dumb everybody calls everything just because it's free.

once a month or so i get together with freinds, I've played at a casino once too, came out $125 ahead

[The Dog]

I play A LOT on pokerstars.

name is Hatters

usually NL hold em cash (.25/.50) or cheap tourneys (1.20, 5.50).

[EFISH]

Hey, theres 2 people that play on PokerStars here so far. Maybe if we can get like 6-7 more, I can set up one of those private tourneys. I dont know how much the minimum buy in is for those though, but that would be pretty cool

[Mal Brossard]

I can't play the money games at all.  I tried to put in $50 a couple years ago, and it said my credit card had a restriction on it regarding internet gambling.  So, only play money tables for me, unfortunately.  It blows.

I did get a $5 loan on there from a friend about a year ago.  I played the penny tables with it, got up to $10, and paid him back.  Lost the $5 profit over the next week.
