Poker Wednesdays
The poker tournament sponsored by AU's women's hockey team at Dremo's this weekend has once again peaked my interest in starting up a regular game. (Somehow finding myself at the final table was also fun, too.) I've set up a yahoo group for those interested. I don't know what everyone's e-mail addresses are (after the current round of e-mail shuffling), so if you're interested and haven't received an invite, then just e-mail either me, or the group at pokeratsunset@yahoo.com.
The game will be Texas Holdem'. I'm thinking about running the rules like this:
- no-limit
- $5 (or $10) buy-in, winner-take-all
- increasing blinds every half hour or so
- maybe an opportunity to buy back in after an hour... not sure about this one
The rules will need to be tweaked, but they'll be generally like that. If you sign up to the yahoo group, there's no obligation to play every week, although I'm going to try to keep one going each week. It should be a good time though, and a fairly cheap evening.
