I will be playing more next week. This week I am abstaining from poker.

― S!monB!rch (Carey), Thursday, 17 February 2005 00:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Boo. Any more Britishers up for this? 11pm is a suitable late, sexy time for poker-playin'.

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 17 February 2005 10:36 (twenty-one years ago)

i often play whilst wearing no clothes.

― ken c (ken c), Thursday, 17 February 2005 10:37 (twenty-one years ago)

Is this the most cliquey thread ever?

Is there a mod reading this who can add TONIGHT 2300 GMT AT POKERROOM.COM!!! to the thread title or something?

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 17 February 2005 16:21 (twenty-one years ago)

BUMP!

Come on, guys, do I have to start begging now?

Caitlin, any luck registering? Do you not have a passport?

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 17 February 2005 18:19 (twenty-one years ago)

mark's desperate! i'm in obv.

― ken c (ken c), Thursday, 17 February 2005 18:21 (twenty-one years ago)

Tonight? Yeah, go on then. What are we playing, tournament or ring?

Anyway, if we're gonna be playing poker regularly, shouldn't we all have Late Night Poker-esque nicknames? Like Dom "The Puffer Fish" Passantino or something?

i actually think that the play tournaments are good practice for playing in-the-flesh poker. you learn how to deal with over-aggressive players, you better learn traps, etc. i've only played for money on poker room a few times (on a friend's account) and generally found it dull; people play too tight. last week i won seven straight play-money tourneys! i'm play-rich!

by the way i love playing online players in person. always easy to spot, and very easy to take down. they freeze when there's an actual person staring them down, and they too often call big bets when they are in on draws. sometimes they hit, but most of the time they don't.

Just a spectacular night last night with my poker group. (Texas Hold-Em play)

Game 1: I went all in on the first hand and was called. I won, and went on to knock out everybody else at the table except for one en route to winning.

Game 2: When it got down to head-to-head play, one guy was outchipped 9-to-1. He came back and won.

Game 3: Me and another guy were both all-in and had a million outs, but we lost to a pair of pocket eights. The guy who knocked us us ended up winning. Things were about even in head to head play, but then he got trapped by pocket aces and made the all-in call with a J-Q. He hit a straight on the river and won.

we totally need play by play commentary on this thread

― ken c (ken c), Thursday, 17 February 2005 20:13 (twenty-one years ago)

My driving licence should in theory be a lot easier to find than my passport - in that I know where my driving licence is supposed to be, and I know I used it a few months ago. I have no idea where my passport is.

― caitlin (caitlin), Thursday, 17 February 2005 20:19 (twenty-one years ago)

Caitlin, do you have both the bits of your licence? Do you keep them together?

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 17 February 2005 20:28 (twenty-one years ago)

Both bits? It's only got one. I don't have one of these posh modern photo ones.

― caitlin (caitlin), Thursday, 17 February 2005 20:38 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh I see.

So we currently have Dom, me, Ken and Chris. Ste? Julia? Caitlin? Jams? David? 9 would be rad!

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 17 February 2005 20:49 (twenty-one years ago)

WHERE ARE YOUR LATE NIGHT POKER STYLE NICKNAMES????

Ken "The Padre" Chu

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Thursday, 17 February 2005 21:04 (twenty-one years ago)

Next game I will be there. Unless you are playing play money tonight. I think I won $5000 in 2 hours one night. Too bad it was play money.

― S!monB!rch (Carey), Thursday, 17 February 2005 22:10 (twenty-one years ago)

― Chris 'The Nuts' V (Chris V), Thursday, 17 February 2005 23:26 (twenty-one years ago)

― Mark "The Shark" LB (Mark C), Thursday, 17 February 2005 23:59 (twenty-one years ago)

its tough to concentrate when your drunk and its dinner time. mark, maybe when your in massachusetts in may we can get you to visit me and organize a game?

― Chris 'The Nuts' V (Chris V), Friday, 18 February 2005 00:01 (twenty-one years ago)

Maybe Chris - if Sarah's up for it, I'm up for it (as long as it's small stakes as I'm prety sure you would REALLY pwn me in real life).

― Markelby (Mark C), Friday, 18 February 2005 00:03 (twenty-one years ago)

trying doing it whilst on the phone!

xpost

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 18 February 2005 00:04 (twenty-one years ago)

haha. $20 will get you $100 in chips. so basically to win money you would need to get $200 in chips to make $40.

― Chris 'The Nuts' V (Chris V), Friday, 18 February 2005 00:06 (twenty-one years ago)

or we could make it UK rules.....whatever the hell those are. Seriously...if we don't have a markelby and sgs fap i will be pissed!

― Chris 'The Nuts' V (Chris V), Friday, 18 February 2005 00:07 (twenty-one years ago)

and you'd have a place to stay if need be. the bingo house has a guest room.

― Chris 'The Nuts' V (Chris V), Friday, 18 February 2005 00:07 (twenty-one years ago)

That's kind of you! Do you have cats, Chris (we're both allergic)?

Sarah probably wouldn't play poker, though - she's fiscally cautious :)

― Markelby (Mark C), Friday, 18 February 2005 00:16 (twenty-one years ago)

Where are you guys playin'? I might want to get in on this. I love me some poker.

― donut debonair (donut), Friday, 18 February 2005 01:35 (twenty-one years ago)

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Friday, 18 February 2005 02:44 (twenty-one years ago)

I can't wait until I finish the current work project. Ah'mo play me some cards.

― Curious George Rides a Republican (Rock Hardy), Friday, 18 February 2005 02:53 (twenty-one years ago)

Yay! Enthusiasm!

A fake money game could be quite fun, though I bet we wouldn't see The Nuts there :)

― Markelby (Mark C), Friday, 18 February 2005 10:56 (twenty-one years ago)

is it possible to move forward future games by half an hour?

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 18 February 2005 11:05 (twenty-one years ago)
