Board 8 > B8 Poker Night

(+) Yeah! (+)

I've been watching some poker videos lately and the strategy is way deeper than I thought

So let's get a group together to play?

Apparently with this you can have private group games

I like the pokers, especially when there is nothing to lose!

I like the pokers, only when there is something to gain!

No but for real though, I don't know if its impulse control or impatience from ADHD, but when it's not for money, I play Poker way too risky and blow my load way early.

I still might be interested, though.
---

Maybe in a few weeks
---

Im in, for real or fake money
---

Yeah I definitely get impatient too, but I want to at least be impatient with some skill

I dont have ADHD and I get the impulse.

When there are no real consequences for losing, why not try to win quickly?
---

All in, every hand, never look at own cards

The only way to play
---

Especially when its down to heads up.

I am so bad at proper Final Two play
---

Is this real money or not?
---

It can be real, but I doubt it would be for us.
---

I'm not opposed to a small amount of real money, if that makes the game better. But I don't want people to be scared off.
---

This would be the first time I've done anything with PokerStars since I had to withdraw all my money from it basically being shut down.

Yeah I'm down.
---

Foolmo can be the banker, we all send him $5, and at the end Foolmo just keeps everyones money regardless of the outcome.
---

Well pokerstars is saying playing for real money is illegal in the US anyways so that's not an option

I made a Home Games club though
ID: 2160873
Code: deygottasurfer
---

I play weekly with friends and basically never win, so I'm in need of some judgement-free practice

Black Friday flashbacks

No mobile no deal
---

I dunno if you can do private games on mobile but maybe
---

I would play
---

I joined the club
---

i think i joined the club

Alright this seems pretty stupid. I can't create a table for less than 20K chips buy in, but you can only get 15K free chips every hour. So to play at all you have to wait at least 4 hours (making sure to click the free chips button) and if you ever drop below 20K you can't play again until you get more chips.

What was that site we used years ago that let you put whatever stipulations you wanted? I think Kuge set it all up, but I have no idea what it was.
---

someone @ Kuge's latest alt
---

I was the one who found the initial site for board 8 poker. I can't remember the name of it tho. Maybe Chris remembers.
---

It was pokerroom

No. It was a little abandoned client. I think we were literally the only people even using it.
---

Oh hey here it is
http://www.bluffave.com/B8
---

joined that too
---

Hahaha, and I was even an admin. Welp.
---

If someone wants to try creating a table there tonight I'm down
---

Yeah that is it
---

I'm absolutely down.

You guys should get bovada poker. It's out of Las Vegas and lets you play with real money... though I think we'd all have to sit down at a small sit and go at the same time.

This is NL Texas Hold 'Em, right?

It is illegal to play with real money on a site for a state you do not reside in. It shouldn't even let you do it

idk I bought in like 6 years ago and am still playing with my initial buy-in money so it may never let me take money out
---

Okay I'm in the new thing
---

I started up a sit and go table. Lemme figure out how to link ya'll.
---

I don't know how to link people but mine is Board 8 Friday Night Poker and it's a Sit N go.

Are people ready/willing to do this RN?
---

I don't ever remember using this, but it says I did a bunch back in 2014...
---

Welllllll. Did everyone just leave or something? @Corrik @foolm0r0n
---

When I try to search it just says WHOOPS AN ERROR HAS OCCURED
---

You shouldn't have to search. You should just click on the little play sign under Group Lobby.
---

Then click over to Tournaments.

This is super frustrating lol
---

On BluffAve? I see nothing called group lobby.
---

So click on B8, and then it should say Group Lobby: Private Games
