I like Nov 3/4, 10/11, or 17/18 the following weekend, I need to check in with someone I would like to invite...I will get back to ya!

Andrea, I used to tell people to find a learner game at your local casino. Sometimes they have lessons and then turn it into a very small limit game. As well, although you may not learn everything because it goes so fast, start playing online poker at a FREE place. PokerStars is my favorite but you could even learn playing FB poker. Just know that you will learn how the game is played, not how to play the game...lol.

Then Read Read Read...Maybe even plan a home game. Good luck!

Thanks

I agree, playing online at a free poker site is one of the best ways to learn the game and the rules. The etiquette doesn't always fully translate to real life but that's easily picked up, and you can always ask the dealer for help by saying "is it on me?" or "what are my options?" if you aren't sure. It's like anything else, practice goes a long way. Also, try a web search to see if there are free poker leagues in your area; many leagues play at bars and restaurants, it's free, you get points for prizes and it's a GREAT way to learn and practice.

And if you have questions, post them here, I'm happy to answer if I can!

Good luck! :)

See you there! :)

I played K O'Donnell's last night... Gavin Smith there playing!

Who's got plans to play poker soon??? My poker schedule is kind of crazy these next few weeks! :) I played in a ladies tournament yesterday, we chopped 5 ways (out of 86 players). Next weekend is the Jack n Jill tournament which is always fun but a real rollercoaster. I also have a home game and a league city championship to play in this week. The following weekend is another ladies tournament!

How about you all???

World Series of Poker 2012 is finally being televised on ESPN! I watched the first 2 episodes last night. I think next year I might play in one of the lower buy-in tournaments. It would be my first time playing in it even though I've been in Vegas during the WSOP the last 3 years!

That would be very exciting.

Anyone else on the site play poker?

I won a satellite tournament a week ago for a 3-day poker series this weekend. I'm so excited that I woke up at 6am and couldn't go back to sleep this morning! LOL Today is Tournament #1!

How wonderful!

We both play poker, and enter as many tournaments as we can...but you are certainly a few levels above us!

Play YOUR game, and here's wishing you the "nuts" more often than the other players.:rrose:

Ps...i meant kick their butts! Geez lol
