plenzmd1 Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 I play somef online poker and thought it might be fun to get a group of us and play at a private table on one of the sites. I usually play at PartyPoker, but would go to any site if yall are interested. Anyone in?
sfladave Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 We tried that about 6 months ago and a lot of people said they were interested but only 8 showed up at Paradise Poker.com on the night of the tournament. We needed a minimum of 10 to play so the tournament was canceled. If we can get it together I am definately in. The tough part is finding a day and time that everyone can play.

BTW, just read Moneymakers book and it was suprisingly good. Dude is dead honest about several aspects of his life
BuffOrange Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 I'm much better at limit, but I'll play. I'm so addicted right now it's insane. Played for 6 straight hours yesterday when I got home clearing Party's $100 bonus that was supposed to be for UK citizens only

Seems I get rivered so much, it just kills me. I know I have the best hand, just cant get get the bet high enough to get folks to fold. What I envisioned is a couple little 10 dollar trnys , no one getting hurt to bad

Dude is dead honest about several aspects of his life 338422[/snapback] We set it up here on the board and with PMs. The real problem was not finding enough players but finding a day and time that works for enough people. We had over a month lead time with plenty of notices and PMs.
wwovince Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 Im in depending on the time and I prefer Pacific Poker but will use my account at poker room. Let me know. thanx
EndZoneCrew Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 Don't play with BF.....according to him he wins 6 out of every 10 hold'em tournaments he gets in!
stuckincincy Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 Innocent question: Would you consider gambling sites that one forks over a credit card number to be a "secure" site?
plenzmd1 Posted May 17, 2005 Author Posted May 17, 2005 Innocent question: Would you consider gambling sites that one forks over a credit card number to be a "secure" site? 338515[/snapback] I think most places do not accept cards now a days. I'm not sure, but think the card comapnies put the kibosh on that for two reasons. #1) cards being used for an illegal activity in most states #2) Guys losing their shirts and then claiming fraud

How does one place a bet?- I thought that was how it was done. I confess ignorance.
plenzmd1 Posted May 17, 2005 Author Posted May 17, 2005 www.neteller.com is one way 338549[/snapback] Thats what i use. A little pricey, cost about 9% each time you deposit money into it, but your cashouts get there pretty quickly
plenzmd1 Posted May 17, 2005 Author Posted May 17, 2005 allright, lets leave this thread up overnight and then i will send out via PM a calander with dates and times. If we can get 10 who want to play, and at the same time, we will get er done

plenzmd1 Posted May 17, 2005 Author Posted May 17, 2005 Still confused...how do you deposit $$$ if not by card? Check? Money Order? 338620[/snapback] it takes a few days, but they actually take right from your bank account. You register your account, and then EFT take place back and forth. I have never had any issues, and they are a reputable, publickly traded comapny
PromoTheRobot Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 I was one of the guys who joined Paradise Poker.com way back when BF in Indiana tried to organize a tournament. That got me hooked. I love playing tournament poker. Let's try to do something at Paradise Poker if we can. The problem with joining a new poker site is they usually want a minimum $50 commitment. But count me in whatever you decide! PTR
