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 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.
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.
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.
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.
