i hope hold'em      buy-in does not at all matter to me.

before i would have said 1btc but now that might be too high?

also i assume most people want no limit, that is fine to me but i suck at no limit, lol:)

I hate to be the cheap guy, lol... but due to my poker skills, I could around 0.1 BTC, lol.  We could have a separate bonus BTC pot where people who wanted to play for more could do so.

For example... set buy in at 0.1 BTC... then have a separate pot with a 1btc (or whatever) buy-in.  If anyone who bought into this pool wins, then they get the pot, otherwise this side pool is just refunded to those who put in.  That way we could kind of cater to people who to risk less and those who want to risk more.

We have 4 so far?

El Tico, whats the max you can hold? 

[pontiacg5]

I agree, .1btc seems pretty decent unless the market goes really south!

Agreed... I'm fine with lower too if someone doesnt feel comfortable with 0.1btc.... I'm just excited to meet some knew people in KC!

Does someone have a poker set we could use. I don't own one myself

[pontiacg5]

I've got a few cheap sets of chips, plus a few decks of cards. I'll bring them just in case.

do you have ESPN by chance?

The MU football game will start at 6:45

Did you ever end up choosing a bitcoin sportsbook? Hopefully you didn't go with bit365 

Sorry folks, I won't be able to make it this time wife has plans for me already (outside burn work)

[el_Tico]

No worries, hopefully you can make it next time.

We just use an antenna so I'll check to see if we have ESPN.

[el_Tico]

We do get the SEC TV Channel so we should be able to watch Mizzou.

Does anyone want to have some drinks beforehand? There are a few good bars close by
