On line poker .......

[macker]

How many of you play and where ?

Also, real money or just for fun ?

Personally hanging around Pacific Poker's rooms myself at the moment & playing for fun .........

[Dave Mak]

also on pacific poker, only for fun, tho we do have a card school once a month in the flat, £5 buy in winner takes all.. also can you get a proper poker game for the arcade, it would be cool to have a members only table :ok

[macker]

also can you get a proper poker game for the arcade,

Already looked around for one mate, dont think it's possible although there is a Casino thing out there which may be worth a look ...............

Would be really good ! :icon14:

[Dave Mak]

i've just had a quick look at yahoo poker, while the table layout is a bit naff, you can create your own tables, and only invited players can play.

we could maybe orginise a game for a certain date and time, and see how many are intrested, if all goes well then make it more often.

i don't mind orginising the first game to see how it goes :ok

@edit or even see if their is a comercial poker game that allows internet play, then we could all aquire a copy and use that :ok

[macker]

Yep, definately worth a look mate ...........

[paddy]

Nice idea Dave, I'd be up for it :ok

Paddy

[puffpastry69]

Dave

[Dave Mak]

sorry guys, i only just got back in, maybe try for the weekend as puff sugested :ok

[BOBCOTTY]

im up for it dave

[macker]

Did anyone ever come across a way to set our own room up somewhere ?

[Dave Mak]

on yahoo games you can start a private table but the graphics are a bit naff :ok

[dpm30]

Hi lads i use 888.com ,not tried any others as this works well for me ! would be nice to have a forum table, let me know . thx dpm30

[macker]

Just played a game with the lads from another forum over at Ladbrokes. You can create a private table on there and it seems ok. Maybe we could set one up one night if enough of us are interested, maybe a $5 buy in tourny like they use ? Or I could have a word over there and see if they would mind us joining their game .................

[Dave Mak]

do they charge for private table's? if not lets get a few friendly game's orginised soon :ok
maybe even a forum Vs forum game, but i'm up for it either way

[macker]

forum Vs forum game

Yea, that could be cool. I dont think they charge for it, set a test one up last night and there was no mention of it, they just take a rake as usual ..........

[puffpastry69]

i put my hand up 1st sir:biggrin

deal the straight faced pastry boy in:ok

[macker]

Ok, so how many will defo turn up and play then and what nights best, Sunday ?

[puffpastry69]

sunday is ok with me macker:ok

[Dave Mak]

me too

[macker]

Ok, you'll have to register an account on there and transfer some funds in but they accept loads of cards and also papal ..........

Anyone else coming in ?

[wobblebottom]

Deal me in

[macker]

Girls ??!!!! :rolleyes2

Dont know about that ! :biggrin

[puffpastry69]

mac is this the right site
http://poker.ladbrokes.com/

do i just register and how much should i put down

thanx

puffy:ok

[wobblebottom]

yes puff :ok

deposit as much as you can afford.. £5-10 should cover you.

[puffpastry69]

cheers wobbs:ok

[macker]

If we play with a $5 buy in then thats all you can actually lose mate (about £3). Everyone gets given say 1500 in chips and you simply play until you run out :ok

[puffpastry69]

how/when/where do i make a deposit, i just don't see any tabs
i'm either blind/thick/stupid or all 3:redface:

and do i register a name before we play, if so on what page,
i'm either looking at the wrong page or i've finally lost the plot

thanx pp69:ok

[Dave Mak]

download the software, then create a new account, when your done it tells you how to make a deposit :ok

pity its not william hill as you can just go into one of there bookies and get a £10 poker voucher, like pay as you go credit for mobile's. just scratch the panel and enter it online.

[wobblebottom]

You can do a similar thing Dave with Ladbrokes.. its called Ukash, just go to shop and ask for Ukash voucher or E money.. and then enter the number on site - just like a phone top up.

:ok

[macker]

Gutted and chuffed at the same time !
-------------------------------------------------

Drew my 1st ever straight flush last night and no-one had a high flush to bet against it so the pot was nowhere near what it could have been ............

The previous 2 hands were both won with full houses and the one after by 4 of a kind ! Next highest when I drew mine was 2 pairs :bash

[puffpastry69]

that's a kick in the danglies m8:mad:

did you go all in on the river

[macker]

Couldnt risk it mate, raised equal to the pot on the turn (about £3, wanted to give someone a chance to hit their flush !) and no-one seemed too keen. Raised about the same again on the river just to get everyone to put in and was waiting for a re-raise but never happened :bash

[macker]

Ok, so how about a christmas game, maybe next Sunday ? I'll set up a private room and we'll have a laugh. The most you'll lose is $5. Who's up for it ?

[wobblebottom]

:ok

[Dave Mak]

yes m8, count me in, im sure the cash will come in handy for christmas :biggrin :ok

as wobbs said a few posts up, you can use UKash with Ladbrokes, but you can get this from any shop that has a PayPoint Machine. here's a link to find the one closest to you :ok

[puffpastry69]

i'm up 4 it, just need to set my wireless router up so mrs pp can join in

[Dave Mak]

[puffpastry69]

[finman1975]

I play paddy power, it is better for the offers. Also for all you footy fans, there is a new one about to come to the market called www.masters-poker.com they are going to be using sporting legends to host tables and tournaments. Keep your eye out for that one.

[davidbulsara]

brilliant idea...im all for it:ok
