would you meet a stranger and play poker with him/her?

found this whilst doing some research for someone:
http://poker.meetup.com/
is it any use to anyone?
i actually found some guys in my town in england, not sure if i wanna play them though!

Only in a public place, KD, like a club or casino.

If you play with people you don`t know at their place with their cards, you`re not going to know if the game is straight. Even if it is, how are you going to get out in one piece if you win big ?

Yeah, thats similiar to what Im thinking. Ok if they win, or you/they break even, but say you took them for a grand. Do they knock on their floor as a signal, and their whole family come rushing in and attack you?
This site is worrying? I'm sure there's also a dating/casual sex thing going on there as well?

Pity they`re all blokes then

If you do that, KD, your girlfriend`s whole family will come rushing in and attack you.

argggh, now you've put me off posting on there!
thanks for nothing!

Cool site, thanks for the link! Seems there's quite a lot of stuff going on here in London!

I would if it were CardsChat regulars. What fun! (Of course, for your safety it would be wise to meet in a public place. )

yeah most of you are cool. but some here are real dodgy......................oh, hello Jack Daniels, just talking about you.
Just kidding







or am I???

That's what mates are for.

LOL, it might seem that every opportunity I get I rip the Hell out of you? I'm afraid it's because I've got a lot of time for you,(I'm the same in real life),and that I feel I CAN rip the p*ss out of you as I consider you a good mate, and hope that you can take it? (Sincerely)......








OK, Like I said, I'm afraid...................

NP here. No blood, no foul. Besides, how can I take you seriously when you hit on all the women in the forum, half the men, and both sheep.

I'd also only meet/play in a public card room. Really, though, what's the point? Poker is kind of a solitary pursuit, aside from the social aspect, and you'll be at a table with eight or nine other people anyway. No difference whether they're strangers you found beforehand or strangers you found when you arrived. I suppose it could be a good way to make friends with similar interests, if that's what you're looking for.

Meeting up with someone you already "know" from a message board is different, though. I met up with a "board friend" for poker last time I was in Las Vegas. There's also a group of us in my area from a (non-poker-related) message board that get together pretty regularly for drinks and camaraderie.

Both sheep, well, who's got the other one then????????

Zinzan of course. I'm surprised he don't have em all.

i have 2 goats are they safe? lol

goats, that's just perverse...............



sheep.................




ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh............

i met a guy at a YMCA poker game... they use meetup.com... now i go there attempting once a week... but the hostess has been having family problems... otherwise yeah, a whole bunch of us in hawaii use it.

Don't lie, you know you have both of um, and you need to stop milking the cats, to. Just cause they have nipples, doesn't mean you can milk them. K?
