Planning to have any no limit cash games? Min RMB1000 buy-in. Blinds RMB10, 20.
This structure worked well in the Hong Kong Poker Meetup. The tournies were once a month there. Bring out the cash game players to have the group gather regularly (ie. more than once a week).

I was just at the Spot 2nite (Sunday). They were playing a tournie. Looking for a cash game though. One of the players said tomorrow night (Monday) and Tuesday night was a cash game. Hope more people come. Starts at 8pm.

I personally like my plan to allow more players. I also like the 2 additional buy in times. Also, the blinds need to go up at least every hour so we not there for days. If it is 1000 entry, I will find another game...thanks though.

Consolidation sucks sometimes because people ask how to play poker, or just BS without any relevance, .....I think the thread needs to be PLAY POKER.....I want to play with a 200 buy in 3 re-buys limit and with 45 minutes big blind increases to weed out the small stack, Lets do this and keep it reasonable for many players, if big enough, we can find an establishment to make it happen. PM me. Everyone please. Mark Dow

yawn.....


Obviously you don't know anything about efficiency (i.e. one stop shopping), why would anyone want to page through 40 different threads when they can just click through one and find all the information about one subject in one place ?

Yeah, I know it's crazy. Especially when you're sooooo used to how things operate in China (azz backwards).

Post subject: Texas Holdem

Ok, so I know there is a sticky thread on poker, but its about 1.2 million pages long and possibly some of the info is out of date.

Im looking for a regular game in Shanghai if anyone knows of one.

Thanks in advance

We have a regular hold'em tournament on Sunday afternoons in Suzhou, between 8-16 players usually. RMB100 buy-in with one RMB100 re-buy within first hour. Cool crowd. Plus you'll get to hangout in Suzhou (for a change)

Interested? PM me for details
