As far as poker games go, Texas Hold-em has ruled the roost on 360 for a good few years, and as some of you will have experienced something special always happens when the stars are aligned and the MLG community get together online for a game of Poker.

Microsoft Games Studios offering beats TH hands down!

With live tournaments, unlockables galore, an XP & level system, fully integrated avatar support and online multiplayer supporting 10 players at a table. All of this is held together with a level of polish and style that can't fail to draw you in.

Review here

So who's up for some balls deep Friday night poker fun?

I suggest 22:30 onwards, which gives you chance to drain a few alcoholic beverages and put your lancer through it's paces before the serious fun begins.smile

This is what kills me about the weeknight games. By the time I get home from work, it will be after 2am over there.

Sigh.

I said that when we started but it has a quick refrence thing that helped out a lot, I got the most money at the end so it must have worked well!

I'll be online Sat around 4PM. 

Brother Brown and I often play Burnout or Borderlands together around 10-11pm so he might available around then too.

Brownie, I wouldn't worry about being bad at poker. It's not so much money based as it is XP based. The game gives you positive feedback for good game play and even rewards a little simpathy XP if you mess up. Unlike Red Dead, if you lose all your money you can buy back in right away. That makes it more about the social experiance, learning how to play, and having fun.

Sat Night is good for me.

Saying that, the Friday night action might not happen for me actually, but the Saturday table sounds like the place to be!

On a side note. I so wish I took a screen shot of this.

I put a Shark mascot outfit on my wife's HOUSE OF TIGER avitar when playing Poker. Last saturday I joined a table that also had a Rudolph costume and a guy in a Polarbear suite. It was quite unsettling to the folks in hoodies and sunglasses to find them selves in the middle of a spontanious Furry convention ;-)

I'm not doing anything this Saturday evening and I'm not allowed to drink so I may jump on for some action!
