i know i know- i will kick Rasheek out of rigged place and since he didn't play the xmas home game his bounty will go towards the "rigged place development plans" (aka to pochui's stars account). if i recall it right world record for the biggest brm home game stands at 72 or 73 mobbits

Should there be prior conditions for approval to join the rigged place given the proliferation of people wanting to join? Maybe applicants should have at least 200 posts of which 5% need to be in the complete bullsh1t thread! That way those players enticed simply by the money won't be able to catapult themselves in never to be seen again once the game is over! And the game will be dedicated to the dedicated posters or large contributors to prize fund!

Don't see it as a problem myself. It's not a free-roll. Each one of them is contributing $1 to the prizepool. Their money is as good as anybody's..

@mirexxx - i have no idea why, maybe you're logged in into hookerstars.com ? believe me it's there ----> home games -----> the rigged place --------> upcoming tourneys or schedule or sth else (don't have an open screen in front of my eyes).

I still don't know if I'll play or not... but do hope to join you all.
For me, it's weird playing against people I "know"... Poker is a very cut throat game, you have to exploit people's weaknesses.. Lie, and mislead them.... it just doesn't sit well with my general personality.
When I'm playing against unknowns online, it's easy to forget about this and just take their money off them.... but when playing with friends, it's hard for me to be so ruthless.

Guess I'm just to o nice
I hear what you say, but not would take it easy one anyone, nor expect to be spared by any one... What would be really nice, is to play your best, and still be ripped to shreds by your friends. This is what I'll be doing (either the shredding or the being shredded or both)...

There are no 'friends' at the poker table. There are only players who you want to take money from, or give money to, dependant on how good you are! No one minds at BRM whether you like playing against friends or not, the important thing is that you turn up, pay your entrance fee and share a great evening of poker.
