Can you set up private poker games for cash on PS?

Or know of any other sites you can?

I believe yes. However PS takes a rake.

You could appoint one guy from your group the banker. Everyone EFTs their money to him and then play a play money tournament. Based upon who places the banker EFT s the winners back. Very easy to do with no rake and not having to transfer $ to PS.

We are just doing play money for fun.

Going to try another tourney for tonight at 7 pm. Change the format a bit.

Watch for it in the club lobby to see any upcoming games.

Correct. Need a computer to play. Mobile app doesn’t work on iPad etc as far as I have seen.

Maybe there is a way to pair an iPad to your computer? Hmmm.

I tried via ipad last night but could not find the home game option. Googled it and found out that the home game option is not available on the mobile app at this time.

SD...thanks for organizing , had fun last night, looking forward to tonight and the changes that you are implementing to speed up the pace of play.

SK

Glad you enjoyed it

I don’t have “my way” to set up games and times. Just trying to see what works for most.

I hope to settle on a format then a regular time. As we gain members we can post more tournaments as not everyone can play at the same time. Not sure for instance how many would prefer a 1 pm start versus the 7 pm.

I suspect most are still working so for now I will keep the evening games.

Cheers y’all and sign up for tonight’s game.

15 people registered and growing now in the club.

If we get enough I may just set up a reoccurring daily tourney and people can sign up or not.

I just hope the cards fall better for me today lol

Will see. So far the first two games took 2.5 hours. Great way to spend time.

It is good to have a handle on the time as part of seeing what works best for the greater group. Mixing in a few different ones now and again would be good also. Keep people on their toes.

When a bounty is paid they have a flashing screen. Hopefully not my name tonight...

Also need to get onto the leaderboard.

You were on fire in last nights game. I just checked. Out of 8 players you scored 6 KO's and won the tourney. Well done.

log in and register now for the tourney. Then log in at 7 pm and play.

In the Club Lobby under Schedule you can see all the scheduled games and get yourself a spot.

I got one good bad beat in. Main thing was I had great cards. People are playing excellent. If I notice one thing about the first three games is that people are playing to win...great competition to fill a few hours of the day.

It will be fun to watch the stats. All games are listed with what place people came in.

Please PM me if you want to join the club. It’s free to join and free to play. Just remember to keep clicking for 15,000 free chips.

Game starts at 7 pm. Last few times people are asking for info right as we are starting to play the game.

Default Reminder...going forward...tournaments will show up on Pokerstars and not always posted here

There is a new tourney today.

Trying 10,000 chip buy in. Sudden death knockout with bounties and 6 player tables to speed up play. Yesterday's game took two hours. A nice way to pass the time. There are breaks during play and one can always sit out...run off to grab something out of the fridge and run back.

[/IMG]


I hope I catch a few more breaks tonight!

As I have seen to get the extra free 15,000 more free chips you have to wait 4 hrs. Then it up the cashier again. The game breaks come every 55 min for 5 min so everyone can rub their eyes or what ever. All good fun and some under the breath curses like WT... was that. LOL

Yes. Every 4 hours you can get 15,000 to your bank. So 90,000 a day if you set your alarm at night.

I find the crazy card run outs part of the entertainment value. My worse beat in a game was losing my straight flush to a higher straight flush.

1 in 10 million odds of occurring.
