Alright. Thanks, bull. It was worth a try anyway. Guess I'm hanging out at the hotel.

Looking for a game preferably within an hour of Carrollton, up to 2/5. Sandy Springs is a little on the far side, but I'd definitely like to check it out, especially since it's mixed.

PM me with details, thanks guys.

Just throwing this out there for future:

I plan on taking 2-3 trips to Tampa Hard Rock for 3-4 days at a time this year. Wouldn't mind sharing gas/hotel expenses if someone is down.

Also any games at all .5/1 - 2/5 within dekalb/cobb/some fulton etc is also preferable.

I have my monthly .25/.50 mixed game (generally NLHE, PLO8/BigO, Stud 8, and a fourth game depending on requests) on 6/24 this month, starting at 1PM. I'm always open to new players if you want to come out for it. The game mix can vary depending on the number of players.

If you're interested in playing, drop me a PM.

I have a couple of open seats for this Thurs night in Roswell starting at 7:30. Blinds = .50/1. PM if interested. mariettabull will be there running over everyone tom dwan style as usual....

I'm looking to do a .25/.5 or .5/1 mixed game this Saturday at 7PM. It'll likely be a rotation of NLHE, PLO8, and Stud 8.

If you'd be interested in coming out for it, feel free to drop me a PM. The game will be in Sandy Springs near 400 and Northridge.

Looking for a homegame anywhere within 30-45 minutes of buckhead-- NLH, PLO or mixed games up to 2/5. I'm new to the area and long-time lurker here. Respond or pm with details. It would be greatly appreciated.

I live in the Tucker area, only know of one consistent game and that's all the way in Acworth. Looking for more games, NLHE cash games from .25-.50 to 1/2 and tournaments at any buy in. Someone let me know, this city is huge. There's gotta be games!

Only here for one more month before I move up to Kentucky.

Attempting to start a NON RAKED (most of the local games have obscene rake...I'm just interested in getting a solid game going regularly) game in the buckhead/Midtown area. Game will be anywhere from 1/1 to 2/5 (depending on what the majority of the interest is.) It will probably start as nlh but could morph to a mixed game (again depending on interest.)

I can promise a safe, upscale environment and will vet all people before attending and expect you to do the same.

About me: Young, professional that recently moved to the area. The majority of the game will be 20 somethings but we are open to any and all.

Please PM for more details.

Tyler

2+2 will not let me PM you, guessing because you are brand new? You will have to post more, or confirm your account or something?

pickled-- send me an email at tloftis1@gmail.com

My NLHE game in Roswell tomorrow night (and prob going forward) will be 1/1blinds. Basement game with big screen projector, snacks, drinks, and no rake!

Looking to start a 5-month tournament series with the points winner getting buy-in to the Cherokee WSOP-C Circuit Event. See below for the relevant details and let me know if you're interested:

If you're not local to Atlanta (or not willing to drive here once a month) and don't play poker, feel free to ignore the below:

So there isn't a lot of interest in a year long WSOP tournament series. Cherokee, however, has a WSOP-C the first part of April. The Main Event will start on April 13th, and it will have a $1675 Buy-in. Therefore, I am suggesting the following:

5-Month series starting in November (November - March). As before, everyone involved will commit to playing all 5 months. The buy-in will be $120, with the following breakdown for the buy-in:

50% to the monthly tournament prize pool ($60/person)
33% to the Grand Prize Fund ($40/person)
17% to the Consolation Tournament Fund ($20/person)

For each monthly tournament, this is a prize pool of $600, paid out on a 50/30/20 split (1st: $300, 2nd: $180, 3rd: $120)

The Consolation Tournament will be for the nine players who win the points championship ($1000 prize pool, paid out as follows: 1st: $500, 2nd: $300, 3rd: $200).

The Tournament Series Winner will receive $2000, $1675 of which is dedicated to playing the WSOP-C Maine Event in Cherokee. This leaves $325 for travel expenses, which should be plenty since you can drive to Cherokee. As stated in the last email, the rest of the tournament will have a 10% stake in the person playing in the ME. So after taxes are paid on the prize (if any), 10% of the money will be paid out to the rest of the group (so if the series winner cashes for $20K and there is $15K left after taxes, the group would receive $1500 or approximately $166 per player).

If there are more than 10 players interested, the prize pool will be adjusted accordingly for each tournament and for the consolation tournament. The overage in the Grand Prize Fund will provide buy-in for the 2nd place points leader to an appropriate tournament (11 would give an additional $200, which would buy-in to one of the nightly turbos up to 20, which would provide buy-in for a 2nd main event seat).

If you have to miss a tournament, you are still required to pay 50% of the entry fee for that month. You may, however, find a replacement for that month to play in the tournament for you. You will not earn any points toward the grand prize for their play, but they will be eligible for the nightly prize pool.

Once we have a set group, I will post more about the tournament structure. At this point, I'm leaning toward a 10K starting stack, 25 minute levels, and blinds starting at 25/50. Points will be awarded based on your finishing place multiplied by 10 (so going out 1st will get you 10 points and going out last will get you 100 points). If the top points earner can't go for some reason, they can shift it to the 2nd place finisher and participate instead in the consolation tournament.

There is no House Vig for this series.

If you're interested, please let me know. Feel free to talk to other people about this as well. The goal is to have the group set by October so we can settle on the best weekend for folks.

Hey Marietta,

Any update on how many people you have for the league you stated above? I'd def be interested in joining something like that.

9 definites and 10 maybes. Just need one more definite to be a go.

Mariettabull,

Looking for a cash game. Dont know if u got my DM. Want to play omaha, but willing to play any mix.

Nope, didn't get it. With your post count, it likely doesn't let you sent PMs. And if you sent an email, I likely missed it.

As for Omaha, it would depend on what limits you're wanting to play. Most of the games I know around town are NLHE (including my Thursday night game). I do a monthly mixed game that's only .25/.50, but it includes Big O as a general basis.

I do know of some Omaha games around town, but I generally don't play in them as they're as limits I'm not willing to play right now.

I would like to join ur game if u have room. I'm willing to play any game. If u know of a 1/2 or 2/5 plo game w/o the high rakes I would very much appreciate any info on how to get in the game. Thanks for responding. U can send me a message or email. jpakenn@yahoo.com

You should have an email from me.

amicusnole & mariettabull; I emailed you both. I live and work in Sandy Springs and am looking for a couple of weekday night games to play in. I can of course provide whatever references are needed. I can be reached at neal300zx at yahoo dot com. Thanks

MariettaBull, I'm interested in this as well if it falls on a days/times that work with my schedule. Is this going to be live or online?

Absolutely 100% live. I'll drop you a PM with the dates the core group settled on and you can let me know if you're able to play. I've got a definite 10 committed and another 8 or so who are maybes.

i am looking for a reasonable rake game in atltanta area north side area. please email me at JLK_1112@yahoo.com if you know of any.

.25/.50 Mixed Game this Sunday in Sandy Springs if any new players are interested. Usual mix is NLHE, Big O, Stud 8, and a 4th game determined by player request.

Bump.

Just moved to Norcross for work, literally know not a soul down here.

Would like to get a game in at some point.
