Maybe we should consider playing at PokerStars like Bongi said. I think it looks better.

The problem with pokerstars and most sites is that I have a virus that doesn't allow me to download .exe files... so anything that asks me to download a poker client, I can't do that. Sorry guys!
I found something a little better, a place where we can set up a private table. HERE'S HOW TO JOIN!
1. Go to http://www.games.com/game/poker-texas-holdem-limit/
2. Click "Play Multiplayer"
3. Sign-up for an account. It doesn't take long, except that the security code thing you have to type in can be really hard to read sometimes.
4. Once you're in, it will take you to a table.
5. Go to the top left and click "Exit to Tables" and it should take you to a Main menu where you can pick a table. (I have problems doing this in Google Chrome, it would freeze up. It works with Internet Explorer.)
6.Click "Find a player" at the top middle of the screen and type in "Nwahs Nirom1".
7. Join the table it says I'm at, and type in the password "pax" (case-sensitive)
8. Be sure to click "sit-out" until we all are there, so that we all start with the same 500 chips.
I have a few questions for everyone:
1. Do you want to play No limit or Limit Texas Holdem? The difference is in No Limit poker, you can go all in or set your bets as high as you want. In Limit, it gives you predetermined levels to bet or raise. I normally like No Limit, but at game.com we only start with 500 chips, and Limit will keep us all in a bit longer and keep the game going, so people don't go crazy and go all in.
2. This is supposed to be a Knights event, but do you guys mind letting other Pax members join if we have room?
3. I thought I had a third question but I forgot... so if I think of it I'll let you know!

I have no problem letting non-knights join us. I just don't want to hear any moral-based wise-cracks the whole night.

Not sure if I can make the time, as I'm usually getting the kids ready for bed around that time. If I have a chance I'll try to pop in.
Nwahs, I'm sending you a message about that virus problem. None of my fellow guildies should have to suffer a virus when I spend all week long removing them for people.
Help incoming!

I won't be able to make it as i have a conference this evening, however i do quite often play on partypoker.net. My username is Shoephil if anyone is ever online and would like to play a few hands. Other than that, i'll try to make one of these events in the near future

Bumpity bump! I'm really hoping to get 10 Pax members into this game of poker, Jedi Knights or not! 50 in-game credits to the winner!

The event was a success. The following players attended:
Nwahs
Durstalph
Finx
Davi Jones
Aestel
Amorl
Areku
Damek
Durstalph won!
A good amount of people began playing a new single table Limit tournament afterwards with Kevin leading it.
Here's a few pics of the action. I should have gotten one when there was a bunch of chips on the table, but all well.

Yeah I definitely want to set up another one, and this time will do a single-table-tournament so it will run better
