Default Re: question

Sure, I'll offer up a trip report. It probably won't be all that interesting, though. My lab mates are not necessarily the most exciting or even talkative bunch. Still, my prof will be providing pizza, and I'll do my best to loosen folk up with beer.

I honestly have no idea what exactly we'll be playing. We'll definitely use a tournament format. It makes payouts so much easier, and my nittiest lab mate is concerned about how much money he'll lose. If he knows his investment before hand, he'll be more likely to ante up. As for the style of poker, I'll probably just listen to the lab and play whatever sounds most appealing to them. I'll try to council them away from playing any draw game, and we'll match an appropriate betting structure to our game, i.e., no NL Stud. After that, though, we could do anything from a typical NLHE donkament to HORSE to a straight PLOnkament. It depends on what people will be interested in, and if they want to try out playing one game or several.
