Create an Entropay account if you can't use your CC. It's just a virtual visa you will have to input the card number they give you into Pokerstars after you fund the account.

I've approved everyone who has requested it up to now. We've got 27 members now, sign up if you can play in the next tournament.

Nice! Looks like we have 3 signed up already for Wednesday.

Also for Wednesday I might be be sitting out til 715ish. I'm already signed up so I'll be there for sure just a few minute late coming home from work. I only live 5 minutes away from work though.

Thanks to everyone who has signed up so far. By having at least 7 members I have been entered into a tournament on March 6th. The catch to this tournament is that myself and 8 members of the CP home game club get to play/vacation at one of the following:

EPT Snowfest (Austria)
Vancouver (Canada)
Macau (China)
Buenos Aires (Argentina)

Each group member will be given $3,000 for travel and expenses, along with a further $2,000 per person for the private VIP poker game, available for collection at the selected venue. To participate in the private game, players must be at least the legal age of majority for the chosen destination, and have a valid passport, if required to travel. Five-star accommodation will be arranged for all members of the group. All club members must have been a member of the Poker Club before 13:00 ET on March 6, 2011.

Wish me luck

No problem! I'm always looking for more poker games and it's nice to play with CPers....for now.

Also how do you check stats? I'd be curious what mine say as I haven't played on PS for a long time.

Doesn't really give much detail on Sharkscope for Pokerstars, but when I check FT and UB it breaks it down pretty good. And I'm not signing up for thebluff but that's kinda cool...

lol I've also only played maybe 10 tourneys on PS (only because of this thread) since last Mar/Apr and placed in the money in 2-3, with them all being 90 player tourneys I think.

Honestly I wouldn't be on PS if it wasn't for this home game thing. I just find they are the worst for Action Flops and bad beats. Not that any of the others are that much better.

Not that I'm disputing my donkey status but those stats are pretty old.

I haven't noticed this thread since the 3rd, when I said I might be into it.
So, I might be interested in it tonight. Will have to dl the program at home and sign up.
