haha. Laughing Forget that. Those are the type of people I want to play against. As an avid poker player, I would LOVE to go all-in on their A$$ and have them fold to me. hahahahhaa. Most definitely.

I have a few questions:

1: Do a lot of people play in these games in Korea?
2: Does the house take a part of the pot?
3: Is the game legal?
4: Has anyone here personally won big at the game?
5: How are the winnings paid to the winner? A bag of cash or a bank deposit?
6: Who is Ted Forrest?

Why do you post here talking about the stupid game but then have no information? Is this game a real game or just a screw over? Probably walk into a room of Nigerians waiting to smack me on the head and take my money.

I played in one of these games a year go at the Hyatt in Incheon.
They may have changed but, when i went there is was poorly organised.
Late starting.
Nobody told our dealer to raise the blinds so other tables were playing a level higher than us.
etc. etc.

But if you want an organised game of poker, then i suppose thats the place to go...then again you will probably have more fun playing online!!

I've played with Jamie Gold (he lives in my neighborhood) -- though this was before his WSOP win... and actually, I haven't seen him since he went to play at the WSOP. Maybe he moved, though I hear he's still living in the same place. Coastline Drive in Malibu.
