A few years ago a few of us tried to play online poker, I think Casino, Homer and Zozzy played a bit. The problem we had was all getting into the same game and same table.

 

Pokerstars now do a homegame theme. If I set up a wanderersways home game would anybody be interested. Using this we can set up tournaments whenever we want and can put when the game is on the forum.

 

If there already is one, let me know and I'll join.

Texas Hold'em?

 

I think I'd be able to set up any game, but Hold'em is the one I play most.

Before you all jump in with both feet please remember we have a genuine professional poker player in out midst.

 

I dont want folk crying when they have lost all their money.

Are live Vegas winners allowed to play?

Not necessarily. Depends on the time.

 

Remember though, he can stay up late and STILL get up early. :good: The man's a machine!

Id be up for it for sure

 

Played in vegas last week, tournaments i played horrific, kept coming in about the top 20pc (16th out of 70, 17th of 64, 75th out of 336) but not making the cash. Werent building my stack up enough in the middle stages, the result being that when i pushed, invariably with 8s, 9s or AQ i was losing the 50/50 race. Was about 800 dollars down at tournament poker but made that up and a bit more at cash poker - suited my style more (i played far tighter live than i did online which is prob why the tourns didnt go as well), this despite losing a massive pot of about 700 dollars (1/2d blinds too). flopped top set on a board of 2 3 6. After the way the pre flop betting went i didnt put the other guy on 4 5 which he had, thought he had lower set, cost me 300 dollars.

Only wankers play poker.

NLH?

 

I don't play cash games any-more, so tournaments would be good, I had a terrible bad beat once in a cash game, that cost me bad, was so pissed, I stopped playing for over a year, do not play on Ladbrokes if you hate getting rivered.

 

My greatest online poker achievement was winning the 2nd Velocity tournament on Sky open, the celebrities were showing my game all night, and they choose my name DIDLEDEE as the best alias and along with around ?500, I also won a Sky Open t-shirt, happy days :P :P

Yes they were, they had 3 celebrities and 2 presenters, they show random games on the screen.

 

I was in the top 10 for almost the duration after some noobs went all-in and I had Ace Ace, now I wouldn't say calling Ace-Ace with more than 2 all-in's is guaranteed to win the pot and not really good poker, but judging on their play before the hand, I thought I'll call.

 

I can't get on the old messageboard, but I made several posts showing my winnings and my play history, I probably bored them all with it, but back then I was very into it and well I liked to show off my achievements.

get away!

Well I got replies, so I thought I'd carry on showing, but then for some reason, Bolton decided the official messageboard was to be shut-down, think it was because of threats to Megson/Gartside.

Well I got replies

 

Were they polite ones?

Well I didn't post anything worthy of getting a non polite reply. Anyway let's get the post back on topic.

Agreed. Blackjack is my card game of choice.
