I think it is time that we get a TPE home game going on Poker Stars.  I'll set up random tournaments so members can play with other members, etc.  Could be a fun way to improve your games against other good players, plus get to know fellow members a bit.

 

If you did not know, US players CAN play in PokerStars homegames, so sign up and let the games begin!

 

You are invited to join my private poker club for Home Games online.

– If you don't already have it, download the free PokerStars software from …..rstars.com

– Open the main poker lobby, then click on the Home Games tab

– Click the 'Join a Poker Club' button

– Enter my Club ID number: 98148

– Enter my Invitation Code: TPENATION

That's it! Once I've approved your membership request, we'll be ready to start playing Home Games online together.

Elldan you have a valid point… However being able to gloat on TPE is worth more than money.

Maybe run a series over a 10 week period and winner gets TPE gear or an hour lesson from one of the pros.

Cool idea.  Im going to try and come up with something along these lines.  What is the best day for tourneys to run?  Sundays?  best time of day?

I think it depends on # of players.  I for one would prefer to play when we are NOT all in other MTTs (e.g. not Sunday).  What about a 6:30pm weeknight?

Sounds decent, you might want to run a couple of diff tourneys for the time difference – normally when your streaming i'm getting ready to goto work. I agree with Sundays not being the greatest of days though we will all end up busting our schedules and winning the homes games lol!!

have approved everyone so far. We are getting to a pretty good number where we are close to being able to start running some tourneys.  Im going to try and fire something off next weekend to celebrate TPE's 5th birthday! Which is actually tomorrow, but alot of the TPE guys are unable to play this weekend, so going to do it next weekend.

Just set up the first tourney for Sunday at 3 PM EST!  Come hang and play.  Should be fun. I'll add additional tourneys in the future, mix in some weeknights, etc.

Does anyone ever try to play in the “cash” game? I stopped by but no one was there.

Oddly, my network at work doesn’t block Stars. It does block TPE, though. Very strange.

I have not really pushed the cash game.  In fact I pretty much set it up as a test. But figured once we get more members in there in night get some use.

 

See you guys today!

Unless they've changed things since I last tried, I was only able to join through the PS client… but once a home game started it popped up on my iPhone.

Was a good tournament. At the final table I think the consensus was it could maybe be a turbo as if I hadn't punted my big stack in heads up it would have been at least 3 hours, and that was with a small field. But a good game. It's a shame Stars can't do hands up replays of home game tournies as it would have been a good learning experience.

Actually an interesting thought..KB..for home game tourneys..if we take a video capture of our tournament run and make the final table or top 3 or win, whatever is decided, maybe the prize could be a hand history review from one of the pros as they go through the hands played?

Like that idea.  We have done stuff like that in the past, Ill see if we cant bring it back.  i thought I had made it a turbo, but perhaps I selected the wrong option. Thanks for the feedback and keep it coming!

Really want to do this again.  Shame more site pros could not play.   I'd like to make it more of a learning MTT, where all players would reveal card when showndown (e.g. no mucking) so we can discuss the lines and the hands.  That to me would be a huge value add. 

Any support for that members?

just set up a tourney for Sunday at noon est to run before the big milly that is running here in the us of A.

 

Im still trying to figure out what is best as far as structure and stuff, but we will get that all figured out in time.  Dont want it to run too long as i know people have to grind on Sundays. but also dont want it to be a complete crapshoot.
