On Pokerstars, i was already a member of 3 Private Home Clubs (with 1 of them where i was the Club Manager)

Well, i wanted to set up a 4th club as the Club Manager for a different set of friends................and just found out that Pokerstars has a limit.

Who knew?   Anyone else come across this as a problem?

Hi poker friends my buddy has put together a golf tourney to support military veterans that can be played from anywhere, the donation fee puts you in the drawings to win the prizes, the leader board is for bragging rights since it would be impossible to catch cheaters. I take credit for the idea but mine was much simpler. Thank you for reading.

Sorry guys, my local "home game" group got me to join up on America's Cardroom where I can play cash games.... something I really prefer over tourney style.

So I've been MIA the past month or so.  I'm not sure if I'll pop in to try a tournament anytime soon but it's a possibility.  

Hope y'all are enjoying the games and I do miss playing!

What was this about?

woot, whatever you guys think is fine with me. I prefer fewer days if it means more players when we do play. 

 
Got a message this morning from AT&T that "my (disconnection) issue has been rectified". Screwed around a little with play money today and didn't disconnect once. Cautiously optimistic for tonight. Our long national nightmare may be in the rear-view. 🙏

 
I love to limp in on the blinds with 2-7.  Suited gives me pause.   I've noticed some players value their aces, regardless of kicker.

 
On June 17th we made some updates to Home Games which give you more options for your tournaments.

However, for about one week prior to the launch of the new update, all tournaments were 'fast' with no option to change this. It was a side-effect of the update, not something we planned on doing intentionally, and we do apologize for this.

With the update, Home Games more closely resemble the regular tournaments on the site, letting you now set up your tourneys with the following options:

BLIND LEVELS

Hyper (3 minutes)
Turbo (5 minutes)
Regular (10 minutes)
Slow (15 minutes)

STARTING CHIP STACKS

3,000
5,000
10,000

LATE REGISTRATION (Automatically linked to the speed selected):

Hyper – 18 minutes
Turbo – 30 minutes
Regular – 60 minutes
Slow – 90 minutes

We hope you enjoy the new changes and your tournaments are able to get back to the regular number of players you were used to.

If there is anything else we can do for you, please let us know.

Regards,

I think that would make the Hold 'em game too long and it will run into the Omaha game. I don't think we should mess with it.
ok, but with all the donks shoving all the time now, there hasn't been a NL game come within 30 minutes of the Omaha game for about 2 weeks now.

Is that because we haven't had a good turnout?

Also, with family life and all that BS, it's good to know the time commitment is only a little over an hour for that game.

But honestly, I'm good with anything.

We had 14 two night ago and don't think it made it to Omaha.

 
The blind structure change sped things up a bit. Ante right away speeding it up.

They need to get rid of the 9-handed table goes to two tables thing until late-registration ends.

 
I would probably prefer to keep it at 5000 and no rebuy for no limit.  I would like to go back to 10 minute late registration too but it looks like that isn't an option.

 
I've been playing cash games (my preference) on America's Cardroom the past month or so, but if you guys up the starting chip level and/or slowed down the blind/ante increases, I'd be more inclined to play.  The games went too quick IMO.
that had nothing with you going all in so quick? :D

Eh, I can only count one time I made a bad all-in play in my 7-8 times playin with y'all.  Damn AQ.  Yes, I remember.   :coffee:

I think it's just that my style of play doesn't lend itself to tourney with fast blind/ante increases.  I'm a grinder.  :)   

Still, I like gettin' together with y'all and trying my luck out.  I'll probably check in again.  I've just been having fun (and success) in the cash game format the past month or so.

 
What if we switch it from turbo to  regular to slow the ante/blind. The current structure sucks and leads to all ins within a half hour.

It's on Turbo right now.  Regular would have a 60 minute late reg.
