My old friends from highschool keep bugging me to play in their $0.25/$0.50 home game.
How do I answer with a thinly veiled brag without being an ass?

you don't. just go play, drink, and donk it up for fun. Home poker is more of a social thing than actual poker.

yeah its fun

yeah, but sometimes they take it way too seriously. there was a "poker tournament" at the dorm across from mine this summer, high stakez $10 BI, 20bb starting stacks, there is one guy that is apparently the uber-shark of the group, i was actually depressed when i left. they came back when the next round started, it was hard for me not to say "i've lost 10x more today than the winner of your tournament would get, im good."
