HPI 2014: Orlando! - Page 8 - Home Poker Games

I used to play in a game that was half LHE and half NLHE. The host would set a timer for 30 mins and it would switch on the timer. It worked great and I recommend doing the same for your game.

Good idea. Now I just need to order one of those big darkroom timers and a disco ball.

Plus, there will be beer and Black Dynamite.

1/2 limit swings should be to the tune of $40-$80.

I could probably do a Hangout with a webcam just so jz can flip once with us...

Only once? How else are you supposed to win your money back after the first one...

If you don't want to die a little inside (like I did the last two years), then make the decision to live and book a ticket. Sheesh... Like it's a hard decision. And ignore those pesky precedents of pregnancy hormone rage being an affirmative defense....

Winnie Palmer is one of the best hospitals (arguably the best) for women and babies in the country, and it's a mere 20 minutes from my house.

Just sayin'.

Hey Schmendr1ck,

I'm new to Orlando, and am looking for some regular home games.
I came across your thread here and was hoping you could help me out.

I don't see a way to PM people or I would have shot you my Email address and phone.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Edit: I now see that I am too new to this forum to PM people.

FYI, it's a bad idea to make a lot of short, useless posts for the sole purpose of getting PMs turned on - mods (like me) frown on this. Read and contribute, and shoot me a PM once you can do so.

Mmkay so Thursday, what's the plan exactly? I vote we take out pfap's cards and we each pick a game, no matter how stupid it may be. That + beer + Black Dynamite = success.

How many posts do I need to PM someone? I don't like making fake posts just to get permission to talk to someone. I'm sure the rule is there for a very good reason, but I just want to talk to one person and move on LOL. I'm not much into chatting about random stuff.

Could I create a disposable email address and post it here?

Hey Schmendr1ck, I got your PM and replied, but then I got an error "You do not have permissions to access this page"

Ok, I've sat on the fence for too long. Go ahead and count me in. I will arrive in Southern Georgia on the 20th, only a five hour drive from Orlando so no reason I can think of for me not to come.

Just for jz: There are still 17 days until HPI 2K14, each of which represents a day you could change your mind.
