Default Re: Food at home games

When my bf and I host, we usually have food and drink, but tell people to bring whatever they want. Some do, some don't. We don't mind. We host only a few times a year, so it is like a little party for us. We do not take a rake of any kind.

I play in Mazzinger's once-a-month tourney, too. Always BYOB, but the host keeps leftover beer, etc., on a shelf that is help yourself. Sometimes we bring food; sometimes not. Pizza is always an option, but if you eat, you pay.

At the Friday cash game I play in, it's BYOB and BYOGrub. Nothing is provided. No rake, but the host usually ends up with "tips" when someone wins, say, $112 and takes only $110.

I would never expect anything to be provided unless there is some type of rake, but I probably would not play in a home game with a rake.
