Whenever one of us joins a game, the game insta-fills and we don't get to play eachother.

We've even tried to time it and wait until we see one sitting... but somehow some dude beats us in.

Anyone know how to set it up?

Invite him over for a few beers and sit at your kitchen table?

Is it really necessary?

can you setup private games on FT? I think you can do that on PS.

Mullen has a good idea though, if you want to play, dont pay other people to do it

I'm confused. There are HU 50nl tbles on FT...Just...Play?

Are u saying the tbles fill up 2 quick? Because even if that is the case...Just sit and and tell whomever sits that you are playing with a friend...n say sorry. That's what I have done.

I don't quite understand what your problem is as this is not an issue...Are u talking play $ only because that is the only thing that would make your Q make any sense at all.

I think he means tournaments, not cash. I've done this on Pokerstars. You just have to pick a tournament and try to sign up at the same time. Doesn't always work, though.

I often play HU sngs for fun with friends - low stakes -1-6$.

I find the non turbo ones do not fill up as quick...But they can.

A trick is to time it with your friend...Have him be ready to player search you as soon as u sit...Or the other way around. If u r quick itll work out...Or it will the next one.

OP - Are u refering to SNGs or Cash?
