So I've started learning to play poker, and I really enjoy it. We should totally do an NZism poker night I reckon. Have like a $10-00 buy in, and all meet somewhere and play. Have a brewski or 2. shit would be cash.
We could even just meet up online and play online using vent. That'd be rad too.
Keen I love poker.
Hmm... been a while, but I'll be keen. In person is always better when cash is on the line imo ;D
Keen, I learnt all my poker from watching celebrity joker poker back in 08 lol. I'll smash you with my unsafe rushdown.
Ya has to be in person and real money. Hate that online shit!
On that note, we should add doubles Euchre to the list. If all goes well.

My bad, was probably too smashed and thought you were speaking spanish or something. As for headlocks lol.
ALL IN ON TWO PAIR ;D
SCRUBS hahahaha
Playing this on facebook just now. Dude in the room with some weird arab name is fully hitting on a girl in the room. "I like your pic cutie. PM me your phone number and we'll hang out" Girl says shes 17. Guy says hes 19. Go to the guy's facebook page and hes 43. Texas hold'em. Hunting ground for sexual predators. No wonder Len is getting into this.
Dude I fucking love poker. I haven't played in a while (since I got into fighting games and that became my main hobby lol).
I'm keen for some poker action.
Also, get us some Sky City cards Lenny. Believe it or not but something in New Zealand isn't shit for a change, and they actually use legit grade poker playing cards to the same standard as Las Vegas casinos. Bee cards, I believe?
Keen.
No idea what Euchre is, but keen for some texas hold em.
Actually I think playing poker could help your fighting game ability also.
I'm keen for poker but i'm rubbish. I bet Lenny is seeing dollar signs right now.
I'm keen :O maybe after next ranbats or first blood?

haha nah man I'm just learning atm. I love the paralells you can draw between poker and street fighter. Ben and I were laughing about it last night over vent, I would have trouble understanding.. then I ask if it's like someone mashing crouch tech, and he said yes, and then I knew what I had done lol.
fuck yeah fuckers fucking play fucking poker fuck yeah
so fucking kean fuck yeah
but dam you lenny, we can all rock up and have an nzism table at skycity fuck yeah
Nah I'm not alowwed to play at SkyCity.
Go somewhere and play I say. Even if we go to a bar somewhere or someones garage would be rad.
I know thats why i said dam you lenny.......but maybe we should all hit sputniks zeah zeah haha
some one come play me on partypoker
I got 4 of a kind twice in 3 games last night. Both times were queens. I'm basically the best in the world at FB poker. Who'd have thought.
I had tripple queens last night at the flop. Dude kept over raising my raise all the way to the river where he got to finish his straight.
Made me sad, but I guess I need to learn the numbers and stuff better for this game.
Stop playing scrubs
its not gonna help you
Yeah you're right.
Anyone keen to go somewhere on Monday night and play? We could do like 10 buck buy in?
Keen.
why not the weekend???
a typical tournament style game with 8 players can easily take 3 hours and being on a monday I dont see how many people would be keen.
Could play cash but unless your playing with a decent amount of money the amount you could win is fairly small and might feel pointless
I have no problem saying i will rape you all and take all your money if we're playing holdem .
pay up you kungs !!!!!!!!!!
I call that bluff. All your money are belong to me!!!

Saturday is def better for me. I have a bunch of cheap poker chips left from a video clip i filmed if needed. (300 i think)
I got two full chip sets so no need to worry about that.
You should come play me and len on partypoker euan. they got play money heads up
im on full tilt tho :'(
Might have to make a new account
how about before graemes doo this sunday we meet up. it starts at 4pm so if we start a game of poker around 1pm we can head round there afterwards.
just make a new account
But I was gonna go to tz probably lol. I think it's double dollars :D
Yeah and I'm not going to Graeme's thing lol.
Also since I work every weekday now, I think Saturday is preferable :D
Texas Hold Them!
If it's at someone's house and not like, at a bar and if it's 8 or less people I can bring my poker table for the legit experience.
id be down. always keen to burn some money
Been playing a fair bit online at Full tilt poker. Fuck it's fun. At the moment I am losing more than I am gaining while I learn to put people on cards. Sometimes I am calling when I know what the opponent has, but I'm just paying to see the cards so I can start trusting my reading ability.
One thing that sucks fucking hard, and prolly a big reason why I will go to pokerstars or party poker is that the betting button for full tilt makes me sad. My fat fingers are not built for that thing, and I have bet the wrong amount a few times with really bad results.
http://www.toptiertactics.com/2011/03/school-of-poker-pre-flop-play-at-small-stakes/
So I have finally grown my bankroll enough to go up in stakes. However, after talking to Euan and Ben and finding out about "Rakeback", I will probably start a new account soon.
I have been playing on fulltilt.com, but have found out that all the Australia and NZ events at the moment are being run by Pokerstars. Now I am aware that I am far to bolo at the moment to even care about that, but wondering if it is worth it to swap over to them on a rakeback deal.
Been trying to find out from some of the people here at SKYCITY, but no one really knows.
Meh just rambling now...
I use rakeback pro on full tilt because they can link it to your existing account if you didn't sign up through another affiliate or something like that. And i don't think pokerstars has a rakeback affiliate.
