JaysonWeber 0 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Allright, This is something I've been wondering for quite a while as the Poker Scene at my College in Wisconsin was weak to say the least. I'm not talking about the players I'm talking about the stakes.So please answer these questions for me, this should be fun as well.1.) What College Do You Attend?2.) What Year are you?3.) Does your Campus have a Poker Club? If So What Do they Do?4.) If you Campus doesn't have a Poker Scene, If one was available would you join?Thanks for the input guys try to answer this stuff honestly too.. Notice I didn't ask what stakes they play at your college because.. Well I don't really care and many would feel obligated to out do one another. Lookin forward too the input.

I could NEVER find ANY game that was more than $30 to get in to... and thats a tournament. Most cash games are $5 or $10 buy in... pretty f*cking weak. Link to post Share on other sites

If you Campus doesn't have a Poker Scene, If one was available would you join?1). University of Washington2). Senior3). Poker club? Not that I know of.4). My campus has a poker scene, and the poker bug has really run rampant on campus. There's no "club" that I'm aware of. While the poker bug has run rampant, so has the penny-pinching bug. Most people are too afraid to play any of the stakes I prefer, not to mention the games.I haven't found cash games that aren't NL holdem with stakes never exceeding .1/.20 blinds and it's rare to find a freezeout with a buyin higher than 10 or 20 bucks. This is just too weak for me and I tend to only play in these games for the social aspect of them. I really do enjoy playing these games, regardless of the stakes. My real poker play, however, happens online or in local cardrooms, which don't necessarily home many players from my school (mostly old people and gambling addicts). Link to post Share on other sites

blinky 0 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 its interesting that in some cases people only want to play $5 and $10 cash games, because at my high school poker games we usually play $20 buyin games, but theres also $50 games.sorry for not contributing to the thread but im not in college yet.i will be attending UCSB next year as a freshman, are there any gouchos on this forum? and is there a considerable poker scene at UCSB?

Yes, www.uwpokerclub.com but it sucks ass and all they do is badly organize games that will get busted anyways by the cops because they have it in the most obvious location possibleThe official meetings are the crap ones. Most of the people running it don't play regularly at the games, or if they are, they're frosh at rev. The majority of the games go on off campus by laurier. They're probably not official, but that's where everyone plays. Link to post Share on other sites

A club hosted a huge tournament on campus at one time for charity, but there isn't a poker club per se. However, as I said...games are always available if you "know where to look."

HtotheNootch 0 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 If you're looking for games, find the athletes.While I'm way longer out of college than I'd care to admit, I started playing regularly because I was bored sitting on the bus while traveling to and from lacrosse games.Then I started having games in my room, and found the greatest thing of all - a degenerate gambler who couldn't play poker. He was worth about a keg of beer a week. Link to post Share on other sites
