so how many of you on this site play poker online, and if you do, what site do you use? i was thinking if we can get a group together that all play on the same site, maybe we can all play a $5 or $10 sit and go tourney against or something.

me, i play on full tilt, and my user name if anybody wants to look me up is haywiremitz

Ever since that cheating scandal came up I don't trust online poker.

MATTYBLU2 · 10-24-2008, 08:58 PM

ya i played about a year ago, cant remember the name of the site. but i had to stop cause it was too addicting. i had won some good money and should have taken it when i was ahead, but ended up leaving it in there and losing it all and then some.

that was when i said enough time & money spent

I use PokerStars and would be totally interested in doing something of the sort.

Chocolatejas · 10-25-2008, 01:20 PM

Pokerstars but I have't played in a few years. I think I still have some money on my account.

I used to play the free ones on my old computer. I got a new computer and I can't remember where I used to go.

KingRadicalPhil · 10-27-2008, 02:23 AM

I play

jono_0101 · 10-28-2008, 09:33 PM

it looks like the few people that do play online use pokerstars huh? for some reason, that site doesnt allow me to deposit money, i wasnt ever banned or anything, but i havent tried in a few years, i might try putting some money on later this week, but we still need a few more for a full table tournament

I have Texas Hold'em on my xbox360 (when it was given away for free the 1st two days that it was released) and it's pretty cool. I've learned a bit about some of the rules (even though I still have a lot to learn).

I played a bunch in college. Not anymore though.

Chocolatejas · 10-29-2008, 01:24 PM

It use to be a minimum of $50 I want to say.

it's funny how they all have to have disclaimers for their ads in the US that they are not gambling sites.

if you pay close attention to the ads, this sites they are plugging are .net sites (i.e. pokerstars.net, fulltilt.net) if you go to those URLs, the software you can download only lets you play for play money, so it technically isnt gambling because no money is in play, for the real money games, you have to download the software from the .com sites, they do it that way im sure because there is probably some law that prohibits them from advertising online gaming, but nothing about playing for free, but you better believe the .net sites let you know where to go to play for real!

About 400K was cheated from members because an employee was rigging matches so that his partners could see the hole cards of everyone at the table.

I may go back to online poker this weekend. I can't pass up the chance to goto the WSOP next year.

ground chuck · 10-31-2008, 12:25 PM

i used to play on full tilt, i just never fully trusted any "gambling," site. i stick to the live variety for my poker fun. oh, i've net over $1500 in the last 4 weeks in home games.

extra x-mas money is great.
