Trying again. NYC Wine and Poker

The Boston and LA folks seem to be able to get his together periodically. I am thinking of a tournament style poker game where the winner gets a bottle from each attendee. So you bring something to drink and something for the prize. Open to other ideas.

Here’s a list of interested folks:
Jay Hack
Corey Miller
Mark Franks
Jorge Henriquez
Michael Lewis
Mike Reff
Brian Z
Craig Ganzer
Dan Rosenheck

When we have a total of 8, I will start circulating possible dates.

I’m interested in this. But I think I’d rather bring wine to drink while playing for cash.

I can’t play poker worth $h*t - does a flush beat a straight or is it the other way around? - but I suppose that I would be willing to lose some random bottle of wine in exchange for sharing a bunch of bottles with the guys every once in a while.

As I said, open to suggestions. So, it looks like we have 3…anybody else?

+1…I can hold my own at dominoes though…right Marky F? [wink.gif]

Well, Whore-Hay is not going to like anything I bring anyway, so I do not have to worry about him winning. I can always get it back to him in a trade for a bottle of White Zin or something else with no flavor.

I would be interested. I second Corey’s suggestion of bringing wine to drink while playing for cash.

If you confuse me with Abooboo once more I will sue your formerly rotund tuchus! [swearing.gif]

depending on the date, I would be interested as well.

Jay, I am getting a bit of a “sandbagger” vibe from your posts on this topic. I will be watching you very closely. I am fine with a cash game, if that’s what the people want.

Moi? I have not played in a cash poker game since before most participants in this BB were born. AND I have not played in a poker game for prizes except for a couple of charity Monte Carlo nights. Whether I am attempting a sandbag is something you will have to pay to find out.

I’d be interested depending on time/date.

I’d be interested once I move back to NYC (July-ish).

This.

I’ll toss out some dates later today. I can host if we have no other options, but I’d love to find another option.

Count me in.

Can you all PM me your email addresses and we will try to start working on a date and a format. Thanks.

Still waiting on a few e-dresses…

another option:
I live on LI (1 hour train from NYC) I have outdoor deck as well as pokertable, poker chips, outdoor music and lighting. We can play poker all night if need be on my deck while drinking wine (and you can even smoke em if you got em out there as well). we can bbq prior to during the game or bring in food/snacks. I can arrange sober transportation to and from my house and railroad station from my non drinking wife. All thats needed is to take the railroad to me.
