| Any poker players in Gainesville or Ocala? Hey peoples! Sorry if this sounds like an ad, but the fact is, I'm REALLY glad that Heads Up Poker is in Central Florida. My wife and I have been playing since Nov. 05. We get to hang out in some of the coolest bars and restaurants and play Hold'em FOR FREEEEEE! We toss back a few pints, maybe grab a bite to eat, hang out with cool people (from ALL walks of life) and play. They bring in two full size, casino style poker tables (with DEALERS!) and hold two tournaments a night. They award points for 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Once you earn 24 points, you're entered into a championship for a buy-in at the Hard Rock in Tampa w/ a hotel room for the night! So far the wife and I have qualified for 2 championships, haven't won one yet, but SO WHAT?! We always have a great time. The only thing that would make it better would be to see some new faces. They even do a Saturday game at Alley Gatorz Bowling Alley, so if you have kids, you can let 'em go on the lanes while you play! So, get off your @#$% computer and come out and play with PEOPLE! It's fun AND free(oh, but the dealers work for tips- bring a fiver for them because they do a great job!) Hope to see some new people soon!
