Durham poker society?

Just wondering if there is any poker or card game society? I wouldn't mind trying to get something started if there isn't one already.

I spent some time in the casino on holiday there and it was damn good fun. Not that you have to play for money to have fun of course, but a say a fiver or so on a game isn't too bad for an evening of entertainment. Now.. to get back to texas hold 'em on partypoker.com :biggrin:

(play money of course!)

Well they seem to do it so you don't loose much. They'll be at the freshers fair

I played the pokersoc tournaments quite regularly last year. They ran a £3 buy in tournament most weeks with the occasional special comp (inta-college team competition for example).

As Cobra says they will be at the freshers fair

Hold'em is prob my favourite. Im in collingwood and am always up for a round of poker, stud or whatever, but I dont want to gamble my student loan just yet :smile:

Maybe we can all get together for a game sometime. And TKR, I could have you playing hold'em in 10 minutes, but its easier to show with cards, yknow!?
