| Poker
I know there are quite a few poker players around RS. I tried (unsuccessfully) to get a regular game going a few years ago but issues like location came up.
Anyone interested in getting a game together or if someone already has a regular one going, need another player? I have no real preference on buy-in amounts. I'll play a cash game too if the stakes aren't crazy.
As this is a grey area, this is in no way associated with REVscene or any staff.

Because then I could just play online rather than taking your money. 
Online just isn't as fun as playing live. If there's more interest, I'll try to get something going again. We'll start with small buy ins and go from there.
Anyone have location ideas? My thought was always a public location...I know of several rooms at UBC we could use.

think 24hr coffee shops like waves or tim hortons in burnaby on kingsway would care if we had a few games in there at night when its not so busy? might be a lil tight but you can easily pull a few of those small tables up close to each other and get a good 6 person game going.

Starlight casino will let you play on their tables and provide dealer for mini tourneys. I think as long as the dealer gets $5 from everyone, ie 10 guys pay $55, $50 goes into pot and the other $5 goes to the dealer so he/she gets $50. Not sure if any other casinos will do this?
I'd be down for that for sure.

But I would be down for a more legit place... It could even be someone's house... hahaha if they are willing to let people know where they live.

yea they host sit and goes but you need 10 players
they have 4 different buy in levels 30+3, 50+5, 100+10, and 200+20
they basically run it like a super turbo tournament though so it wud be no fun
1500 chips and blinds start at 25/50 and 15min levels
