Poker

[Zell's Fists of Fury]

I am seriously addicted to Texas Hold-em now. Tonight I won about $40, playing against nine people (five dollar buy-in). I love it.

So there.

Blackjack/Pontoon/21 is way better. :p

[Resha]

I don't play for money much, but I do enjoy playing. I always win the M&M's, muahaha. ;)

[Sepho]

I do the same thing. I play with a group of friends, who all pay five dollars each. I usually win, but we pay second and third place so I get around $20 to $30 depending on how many people play. We play with at least 7 or 8 people, but we've had two full tables going on some games.

I'm not the gambling type at all, but I can afford to lose five dollars once every week or two, especially when there's a chance dictated by a certain degree of skill (as opposed to just dumb luck) to make a profit. If someone suggested that we raise the buy-in to $10, I'd probably say no. Because that's how the gambling mentality works (ie. "Well, if I spend more, I have a chance to make more in return"), and soon the buy-in would be up to a gazillion dollars per player (exaggeration).

Poker? I hardly know her!

[Jojee]

I played that >=O Once. I lost $5 and I quit. Then I convinced them I didn't have to pay cos' it was my first time playing and they should be nice.

[Faris]

I love <3 :love: Texas hold'em!!!
I once played against one of my guy friends, I won every hand. He started swearing at me O_o

I like playing it with friends, but not for money.

[RSL]

My mom and sister are obsessed with it. I myself don't mind playing cards for fun, but I will never in my life play for money.

[Mindflare]

I don't get the sudden obsession with it. I never much liked it, and I don't like the idea of losing money, so I never bothered to get into it.

My friend and I used to play for crayons in our american lit class. I wouldn't play for money though, because I suck.

My friend and I used to play for crayons in our american lit class. I wouldn't play for money though, because I suck.However, when you lost your favorite crayon, cyan blue, you were heartbroken for a week. :(

Meh, I guess it's better than playing strip poker in American Lit. class.

[Rase]

Love Poker, Blackjack, etc. Don't like risking my hard earned dough, however, so I just play for fun.

[Chibi Youkai]

I play for fun when I'm helping usher with my jrotc class.
The only thing I've ever bet with was pennies, and m&ms. And when someone ran out of pennies, we split ours with them.

Poker? I hardly know her!

Your funny mate! :D

[Raistlin]

I've played for money once. Started with $4, ended with over $20. Played mostly 7-card stud, but some Texas Hold-em as well.

I wouldn't mind playing again, but it's not very high on my list of priorities.

[-N-]

You're addicted to Texas Hold'em? Play heads-up against me, and I'll crush you so hard you'll be cured of your addiction. How does $100 buy-in sound?

[Zell's Fists of Fury]

AHahaha, bring it, buddy. You won't even know what hit you.

[-N-]

Time and place, man. :D

Where do you play online? I've used PokerRoom in the past - I'm pretty sure PartyPoker is rigged.

I don't. I play with real people.

[The Captain]

Hey Spiff, have you caught that new series on ESPN, "Tilt"?

Take care all.

[Zell's Fists of Fury]

Yeah, it's pretty cheesy, but neat all the same. I like watching the Poker Championships.
