Just played Texas Hold Em for the first time tonight.

Went over to a friends house for a baby shower. Why the girls giggled over all the baby toys and car seats inside, all the boys played poker out by the pool.
I won a few hands and lost a lot more.:D But damn, sooo much fun. We all through in 20 bucks and played for a good 2 plus hours. I will definitely play again.
Man, what a blast. Now I know why it is so popular.

Its the best poker game ever!! :D I play at least every week with my buddies and even get a little practice time at pokerstars.net when im bored. Once you get the hang of it you will always want to play. 2 hours seems like a very quick game. You need to play some more :D

I've never played, the rest of the family loves it.. Uncle, cousins, etc...maybe I should learn. I know they rake up the big bucks when they play... Since I live in Reno maybe I can rake up some extra bucks myself....

I'm pretty good at giving my buy-in to the winner. It's a fun 2-3 hours, tho...

Just remember. not everyone is raking the "big bucks" in. For that to happen, some are throwing the "big bucks" away.
The game is addicting, especially tournament style, where top few take all. It is much more realistic. In a cash game, when you can buy in more when you go broke, people play much more agressive, or foolish.

I love Hold 'em. I can't get enough of it. I started playing a long time ago, and there is no other game like it.

[RitcheyRch]

I've never played either. Know quite a few people that play and they are always talking about it. Guess will need to learn one of these days.

[racecar.hotshoe]

I play all the time online.....IT'S FREE...

[beaverretriever]

Just like everyone told me, "one hour to learn, a lifetime to master".
It is a very fun game. I doubt I will ever go to a casino and play, but I will definitely play with some buddies again.

I've watched "Poker after dark" a few times, on at 2am. Pretty interesting game, I'd never seen it before. Fun to watch but I'm not much of a gambler.

[PINSTRIPER GIRL]

I also just learned this weekend and it is fun! I had beginners LUCK big time!:D

[little rowe boat]

I usually play for dishes.:D

[Fifty One Fifty]

I have poker games at my house almost every week and try to go to the local casino as much as possible and play cash games. Vegas is the best for tournys though. Used to play online for money, but it seemed to "rigged" to me. I'm pretty much addicted since the first time I played about 3 years ago. We should get a HB poker game going. :idea:

[Nucking futs]

I play all the time at Commerce Casino. I've been playing for about 8 years now. Its fun to play with freinds,but a casino is the only real fun for me. Post up when the poker night is, Im down to play anytime. I like omaha too.

[beaverretriever]

LOL, now I am watching it on TV... That kid Jordan Morgan is kick arse. He made everyone fold with a hand that worse than almost everyones with over a million in chips on the table. Some good bluffing. :D
