There is a large percentage of fish that will never play in a private game (for anything more than a hundo).
Almost all the private games I have played in where the play is for greater than a couple hundred bucks are not good games.
Give me the rural card room with 6 or 7 loose passive farmers any day of the week.
I know I'm beating a dead horse and none of you ingrates are listening to me but...
The_Lurker, when you go to this thing check out how incredibly bad the dealing is specifically. I really can't understand how any dealer that has ever been tipped would ever set foot in there. Please return after April 1st and be honest with me when everything I tell you comes true about this sure fire shitshow. The ambition (stupidity) of this club owner thinking any poker dealer would ever do this is truly mystifying. It almost has to all be an April Fool's prank.
Step in to Alamo Card House! Your poker dealer is licensed by Chuck E. Cheese but HEY! At least you can't drink! Don't worry about staying out too late either. We will make sure you are home a decent hour!

His wife or daughter usually cooks. Only pass the deck game on my rotation. It's painfully fucking slow but worth it.
I've tried three times after big wins to give some money to the host. He refuses. He simply wants to play cards but doesn't want to leave his house.
Find out what his favorite booze is and bring him a bottle of it next time.

He will think I'm trying to kill him. But yeah I have found my own way before.
We have freerolls at local stripclubs, pretty entertaining, after a cooler you can just walk up and get tits in your face for a dollar.
Lol. My first hand of poker ever played was 3/6 limit in a strip club that showed pussy. I remember they had a tv screen above the table for people too lazy to look over their shoulder covering the action while two whores simulated sex.
Sheboon making life-memories in a strip club is approximately the least surprising revelation in the history of this forum.

I play in a bi-weekly "big game" with some biggest fish in the whole world, including a very famous country western star's manager. While I appreciate all your wonderful words of wisdom about "the current state of poker" it has nothing to do with this thread.
The current state of poker is certainly not faggot if you know where to look and know who to shmooze to get invited. If you like to play like a nit and not straddle and enjoy berating fish you will never get invited to any good game. (unless you really really suck) If you want a poker league and you play poker for social reasons I really can't comprehend that. The game stopped being fun for me years ago. I play for money.
As I read the comments I notice I'm the only telling you exactly what you will experience when you walk in that door on April 1st. Even worse by May 1st all the agents will poach the new fish that somehow hadnt found a game. It seems like I'm the only one talking about things to do with this thread. Sonatine is so fat that he thought your OP was asking if this would be a good business model. I didn't see you tell him to stay on topic.

You wanted opinions of Poker Clubs. I probably play poker more than anyone on this forum. I've seen similar things start and fail miserably. I know exactly how it will go down at this Alamo Poker Club. I couldn't be more on topic. No alcohol, time limits, slowness, gayness, with the worst kicker in the deck being that you just haven't quite comprehended what sort of dealers would actually think this is a good gig. I'm just trying to save you some time.
Ask George Strait's manager and the rest of the boys at that game what they think this will turn out looking like. I bet they say the same as me. If you are invited to something like that then this shit show should not even be on your radar.
Holy mother fucking shit. Holy mother fucking shit. I finally went to their site. I clicked the "Dealers Wanted" icon. It's even worse than I thought LMFAO!!!
You don't have to be a professional to deal at Alamo Card House. If you can shuffle cards & do simple math then we encourage you to apply. If you have dealt at a bar or a house game before then dealing for us shouldn't be that much different. Fill out the quick & easy form below & one of our staff members will get back to you at our earliest convenience.
My licensed to deal by Chuck E. Cheese comment was more truthful than I even imagined.

I happen to agree with you on most of this. I would rather clean up puke than play 1-2 NL in pretty much any room in this country. I happen to like an occasional small field freezeout.
Lets just hug it out.
Oh brother. Loudmouth wants to hug it out as soon as I pin his ass to George strait.
P.S. Your bitch looooooved my poetry almost as much as my D.
OH SHEEBOON PLEASE. We both know You couldn't get laid in a whore house.

Is this seriously the best comeback you can come up with. I was hoping for a "your wife begs me to go balls deep in her ass" or some other junior high retort.
Seriously call me Clit Black. Last warning.
