Poker in the Rear - Photos
I run a (usually) weekly cash game with monthly tournaments. This week's tourney saw 29 people. Cold weather capacity is 35, but when it gets warm out I plan to build it up to 45 or so. People love money, and more poeple means mo' money. I try to play in these, but with running everything and dealing with all the stupid little questions and problems, it's a wonder I do as well as I do (usuaully finishing high up, cashing every now and again). The smoke and the drink likely have something to do with my only barely acceptable performance, but we try to ignore that.
We're in an old detached garage converted to a play room (there are side rooms and a bathroom), with an adjacent open patio area. Here are photos! These link to larger versions. A few more in the full set.       I also do league standings on the off-chance anyone's interested in that. Combination of position, cash, and eliminations executed. Just for laffs.

shameless plug
If you're not a website designer, or if u are and you'd like to save time, use my site to manage your league: www.homepokertour.com
It works with Dr. Neau's tournament manager and you can upload your photos too.

Re: Your chips
Thanks for the nice words! It took a lot of time and love to massage the game up to where it is now. When it's warm out I also plan on a bigger buy-in all-afternoon deep stack thing (with better food, too).
stevea, I haven't used that, I'll give it a look. I do know a thing or two about web design, but right now I just use evite for setting them up. It works well, and I design them to match the custom interface I made for Dr. Neau's (new design for this season, which will ultimately be complemented by new chip labels... anyone know of a good place to get those?). But that site looks slick... I'll look into using it, thanks. HRFats, yeah, early on I was nervous because a 1k chip and a couple smaller chips went missing. However, they must've just gotten dropped and lost under something deep in the garage, because they've never returned. I use racks and know that I'm good at the end of the night. If some go missing again or show up again, I'll get concerned, but that's another reason for getting some newer chips (nexgen) and labels. That, and so I have different chips for tourney and cash. wiper, thanks, I like when others appreciate that. I think it's great fun to look at, and I think I've worked up a decent ranking system. It does make the tournament a bit difficult to run while playing. I'm going to try to find someone trustworthy to handle running the software and taking cash for next time, otherwise I'll just have to stop playing. I enjoy running and hosting, and I do well enough in the cash games, but even still, I wanna play in the tourneys. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Your chips
stevea,
not sure if its your site, but it's a hell of an idea. I haven't dug around it too much but what it says it offers is pretty cool. So far most of the 'find a game near you' sites don't do too well IMO. I'm here it Atlanta and have yet to find a listing. Your site could easily bridge the gap the other sites have fallen short of. It looks well done, and has a lot of user benefits. Are future plans to keep it free or eventually morph into a pay-for-premium setup?
