I've seen a few people around that are in or around St. Louis/the Midwest, but I've never really concentrated on finding them. We've seen FCPers do meets in Vegas and some other cities. I've always wanted to take part in something like that but the Vegas ones are kind of difficult as some of us aren't 21. Just curious who is in the midwest and might be interested in attending/hosting something like this. I'm not planning one or anything officially, but I'd like to see what people from STL, Chicago, central Illinois, Kansas City, Oklahoma, Kansas, etc. think.

I'm in Cinci...well, Central Kentucky now, but I digress. I've always thought about doing something like this. Maybe a meetup at a Casino or something, but never gotten around to it. Good Luck though, I'm probaby too far away to take advantage of a meetup like this, but I'd probably consider it a little anyway.

Kind of the reason I pointed out earlier that some people don't attend Vegas ones. They aren't old enough i.e. me. If it was a good Indian casino or something that is 18+ and spreads poker we could do that, but there possibly might be people who aren't even old enough for that.

I'm in Michigan and under 21, there really aren't many Indian Casinos in the Midwest that I know of, there's one 50 minutes from my house, but the poker room is dying quickly.

Jesse, why do you and Jam-Fly always have the same avatars?
it was discussed in a thread last night. I figured it out when I changed mine to my gay pride flag lol. When we all changed out avs to JC's Mexican crowd one, I was the first one to change. When Jam-fly and some others changed theirs later, they used the link to the pic that was in my profile and not jcs. So, their avatars are setup to be whatever is in the link to my avatar. So whenever I change my picture, theirs changes. When I changed to the Italian flag, theirs did automatically, and now they have my gay pride flag hahahaha

We had a decent turn out of FCP'ers (14 if I recall correctly) at a home tourney in the St. Louis area about 2 years ago. So, it has been done. All we would really need is a person willing to host (since it seems like most are under 21).

Did you forget you and I met at the Grand Vic one night, although I got drunk and didn't play much poker, but good times regardless, and I agree a meeting of more than two people would be fun.

The Four Winds Casino in New Buffalo, MI (not too far from Chicago) is opening in late August. They are supposed to have a big poker room, 20 tables I believe....supposed to be a pretty big casino. That might not be a bad place......

Summer sucks for planning things with the guys that I normally play cards with so I told them that come September when things die down I was going to hold a $60-$80 tourney with cash games after word. When we have a cash game we have had up to 18 people and 23-25 for tourneys. If anyone is interested let me know. I can easily hold 4 tables and 5 if I squeeze them in. I am an hour and a half south of downtown Chicago. We are playing at someone elses house this Friday but for small stakes (.50-1 NL $25 buy in) and only 6 or 7 will show up because of stuff going on with the kids and the holiday.

I live about 4 blocks from the poker room/horse racing place in MN. Also a few miles from an Indian Casino (no poker there though).It would be cool to have a get together...distance would be a factor though as I usually don't have a lot of days off in a row.
