    Hey all,

    I’m quite interested in getting a poker home game going and decided to post this to gauge how interested the community would be at doing this, personally I think it would be a lot of fun.

    We could try set the buy in to around £5-£10 (or $ depending on the platform chosen) to make it affordable . Obviously it would be hard to find a time and date that would suit everyone but I imagine a weekend would be best. But for now I’d just like to see how many people would be interested before hashing out the details ideally we would want around 20-40 players to make a fun evening out of it if we get less we could do a sit and go for a laugh. So, anyone interested?

    I’d 100% be down for this!

    I run three games a week across Wolverhampton, I’d be more than happy to help run the home game if needed. I have plenty of TD experience!

    Ideally it would be on an online poker site as an actual meet up game would be a lot harder to arrange and we most likely wouldn’t get many interested especially after Christmas but I’d be down for an actual meet up game in the future. I’d suggest doing it on PokerStar as they have a chat function which will make it a lot more fun. I’ve never actually set one up before so if you want to take the lead on it Bio I’d be fine with that although I’m sure I can figure it out if needs be.

    Bandit if we manage to get the numbers try to get Rolla involved as I’d love to see you lay a bad beat on him haha.

    Nice to see quite a lot of interest already, keep it coming guys and gals!

    Mondays at the Goose, Wednesdays at the Lych Gate Tavern and Sundays at the Royal London. 7:30pm for all. I have supervisors who run each one, I more oversee them these days, so I don’t attend every one! Each game is slightly different, depends what sort of feel you’re after. Lych is my personal favourite, and it’s also the most popular.

    Well, I can’t sleep so I’ve just been fiddling about on Pokerstars and I think I’ve got it all set up. We can try give it a blast on 13th Jan 21:00 (WET). Here’s all the info so far, if the majority want something changed about the structure of the tournament then it can be changed, it’s not a problem. This is my first time setting up a home game so go gentle on me! 😛

    Info:

    Club ID: 2172745

    Invitation code: tilted247

    Structure:

    Table size: 6 max

    Buy in: $11 (around £8)

    Speed – Regular

    Blind levels – 5 minutes

    Starting stack – 5000

    Pay out – top 10%

    If I’ve done anything wrong (which I probably have) let me know, if you guys want it to be a different format such as KO or want 9 player tables or faster blinds/tournament speed/starting stack/pay out % etc then it can be arranged. Once you’ve joined Bio, let me know and I’ll make you a club admin (Bandit too).

    Nice one, thanks Green! Looks like a pretty solid setup, 5 minutes is turbo (not sure why it’s listed as regular) but normally works well. Failing that, 10 minutes is always a solid middle ground.

    Need to double check I’m free that evening (I should be), so will sort that as soon as I can and join bud. 🙂
