Poker.
The Gentleman's Game.
From Wild Bill Hickock to The Poker Brat, real men (and ladies) love to play the cards.
I personally host a game every 2 weeks, which gets from 15-35 people.
Not huge pots, but generally a pretty fun game.
I've also been to a new casino (Snoqualmie) recently and plan to go back.
So how about you, SE++ers?
Do you poke?

poker is for lowlifes and criminals
$10, $20 buy in tournaments with a dozen friends or so

And do you just have a buy in where winner takes all or something?
I play at a friends home game every couple weeks, sometimes I venture online.
The home game we alternate between tournament and cash games. Pretty fun, generally just a full table, ~9-10 people, all friends. Couple of donks with big wallets to get more money on the table.
I'm pretty average really, too lazy to try and properly learn all the math.
I managed to get quad aces at the last home game, doubled up. Best hand I've ever had.

I expect my PM box to be full of invitations to cash games in the next 5 minutes.
But in all actuality, I love poker. It is so much fun playing dealer decides what type of poker you are playing. I grew up playing with all of my dad's old cops friends, I learned a lot about poker from them.
oh my fucking god I know
I was watching the world series of poker or whatever and some douche had this big ol' hoodie and sunglasses on. It was him versus a very nervous but honest asian dude
...All reds...

Gonna go out on a limb here and say professional poker players who do this know more than you.
So stfu.
t Geek: Every 2nd Saturday.
Depends on the number who show up... top 3 usually, but up to top 5 if we have enough.
I have a soft spot for Daniel Negreanu.
Maybe he wears that as a disguise and plays under a false name!
Let me know when you're playing again. I might have a good job soon and have some cash to waste.
Negreanu is the biggest fucking asshole in the universe
and i love him for it
you'd better leave now before I rape you with my mind
It doesn't matter if they know more than me. Other than the mathematical side of poker, the other half is a mix of observation and control. By having all that shit on they get to forgo control and limit the other players ability to observe.
Unpopular opinion, but eh.

One time I had a K-high straight flush that lost to a royal flush. Never going to forget that hand.
