| Revscene Poker Club
Hey, if you're a real money poker player, we are planning on having weekly tournaments online, and eventually real tables. Please join the Revscene Poker Club group for now, as that's where much of the new info will be found.
Tournaments will probably be in the $5 buy-in range, and depending on how many people we get, there could be a nice prize in the end for the winner each week  
This is a moderated group, and only accounts in good standing will be accepted.

I'd be interested in live play as well the biggest problem is the lower mainland is massive and people are scattered throughout. 
I don't mind traveling to a game and if people feel like driving into the valley I don't mind hosting a game either as long as it's a smaller group no more then 10 people. I really live in the burbs though so for most it probably wouldn't be convenient or worth it.

Yeah in-person games is just a theoretical thing right now, something we're talking about. Online tourneys is something I really want to do, and should be happening as soon as we get at least 10 people to confirm they will do it.

I'd play as long as it's after work.. of course lol....
and I agree about house games.. 50 is good if there's a bunch of ppl... but 20 is good enough if there's just 10.

i prefer live play, watching people's expressions during poker is 50% of the game.

I think we'd need to do a bunch of online games first within the same group of people. I know I sure as hell wouldn't want to invite a bunch of strangers over when money is involved.

Liveplay is the way to go. Too many suckouts/bullshit hands online. Need a real deck of cards.
After trust established should organize a hall with $50 buy in.
That being said, I'm still down for online first as long as it's after work
Quasi - I'm 5 mins away, if you're ever looking to fill a seat shoot me a PM!

I'm fully aware suckouts happen in real life. About 5% as often as online. | |
