Ok further to this ... for those that like low stakes games....

I found one which is 30c buy in (25c + 5c) and the winner takes all ( $2.50 ).

If everyone got the $10 free account this would give us approx 33 games which people could join in without having to fork out any cash.

I found two more tables, 1 paying 2 places and 1 paying the top 3.

All tables are password protected for our enjoyment.

That sounds like the way to go wesmip, thanks for that. So now that we have found suitable accomodations all we need is to decide who and when.

Players at this stage:
Mad
Wesmip
Mofo
BJ
Mav

Need a couple more so jump on board fellas, free game and money. How bad?

If needed there are 5 player tables but I would prefer to play a 10 seater.

To get some interest going how about we run a mini comp with it ... we can record the results here for bragging rights.

Ive been playing poker a fair bit lately, still not very good at it but I'll jump on board for sure... sounds like a good idea.

Great stuff luv2, chit thanks to wesmip's endevour it's free to play so why the hell not is what i say. LOL, i wonder if "hell" will get past the censor.

count me in........

.......but first what are your balances? :D

Stix,

Great to have you aboard... Haven't started yet so $10 is everyones balance.

But not for long .....LOL

Good man Stix. Tried to get Neill to play but he said he doesn't play. I coulda' swore i saw him posting re: stretegy in here before. Oh well, i think he's scared we'll beat him, LOL. (Told him i'd say that). Anyways fellas we're getting a likely bunch of misfits together now, should be good fun.

Misfits so far:

Mad
Wesmip
Mofo
BJ
Mav
Luv2bet
Stix

Did i miss anyone?

I am in.

Havent read back a whole way yet but sounds like a good idea.

"I folded a huge raise, and of course the 10h came out, but in the long run it has saved me heaps, the odds of getting the next needed card are very slim."

A read is what matters here. You'd push back at him unless you thought he had a set or a better flush draw, and he will do this with alot more hands. As for slim odds of getting a card, you will make a flush or straight more than half the time if you see the river. I doubt this was a good fold, but I know nothing about your opponent.
