I used to play in home games about once a week. The stakes were usually low, but they were a lot of fun.

I have never been able to play in home games with friends...I don't like to take their money if I win, and I don't like when they win my money. I have played in Las Vegas with friends at the same table...that is sometimes unavoidable if you don't want to wait an extra two hours for another table to open.

Although a son and two granddaughters play, the distance prevents us from meeting

About 10-20 years ago, I used to play cards with my friends almost every day. Those were good times. Now we get together very rarely, most of my friends are at war. But we played other games, not poker.

Yea nothing like good home games. We don’t play as much with the kids now but once in a while we still get together ! It’s a hassle to organize hopefully something comes out to solve that issue ;)

I never played with friends. I have few friends who play and balancing our schedules to spend a few hours playing is a little difficult. But when the opportunity arises, I would play without any problems.

We played poker with friends offline and it was great, but just for fun. Once we were out for so long that we didn't realize it was already five in the morning.

Of course, poker is a sociable game and what better way to have fun than playing a little poker with your friends, it is fun although where money is involved it is complicated because it is usually placed and the atmosphere is tense due to the effect of losing and winning.

It's good to meet people who play poker, but to do so you must understand the entire structure of the game. Cards, chips and table. Normally each person has their turn to shuffle and deal the cards, in this case the person who takes on this role would be the Dealer. In tournaments, there is a dealer who is not part of the game, but this service is paid.

Earlier, 10-15 years ago, we used to get together with friends and play cards. But not poker, we played other card games. Back then, poker was not so popular in our circle.

We get together once a month for a $.05/$.10 cash game, we got guys at all levels, so its definitely not a tough game, but it's a lot of fun.

Unfortunately, no. My only friend who plays poker just had a baby, so he’ll be away from the game for a while. When I want to play, I either play online or go to a club in my city.

That was before pandemic years. For me now , it's hard to gather 4-5 friends and play on a Friday evening

I don't like playing with my friends, after all, I don't like playing with my friends if I win, they don't like it if they win, I don't like it, so I don't like playing with strangers. You'll be more confident!

Playing poker with friends should be done in moderation. No one wants to lose money. So it is best to set a maximum amount that will be placed on the table during the game so that everyone is sure that the goal is to have fun and not to make profits and take advantage of friends. It is even dangerous to lose friendship if there is no moderation in the poker game between friends.

I played a lot of poker with my friends when I was a student. But then my friends stopped playing poker. But that's okay, because I much more enjoy playing within our Community. Here is a completely different level! :cool:
