| 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 ? |

This site is worrying? I'm sure there's also a dating/casual sex thing going on there as well? |

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................... |

| 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. |
