    Rules suggestion:
    1-cash game
    2- cheap buy in... but unlimited..
    3- fixed small/bid .... no increase during the game...
    4-if you dont loose everything, you just can leave the table after 1 hour from the beginning of the match.
    5- histerical players and bad losers get permanent ban.
    6- if you want a fast/eficient game, like in a professional table, go to poker stars.

    this is how me and my friends play poker every week, for 5 years so far... neve happened a fight or a argue in this time... for sure, the cigarets, joints, beers and barbecue helps to make the ambient more light... but is possible make something cheerful here.

    like i said events would be fun/different and acceptable but a permanent poker table would end up being a big ball of crap. doesn't matter if its 5k or 5m buy-in people will accuse others of cheating, staff of helping others and players that were once friends will no longer be. just saying.
    i'm done on this thread, just make a permanent table and give it time and watch everything i said to the T unfold

    it gave me hope and actual fun in the game again personally. theres not many out there if ANY that are without mega trolls and flamers anymore, you all are pretty much unscathed from it. Make a permanent poker table and it will turn into the same as everywhere else.
    Ok now i'm done :)

    It wouldn't even have to be no limit which wouldn't completely make or break people in one hand. It could also even be for platinum like 2 plat big blind 1 plat small blind and even a holiday coin table would be pretty cool. Just a few different levels of betting tables and a high rollers table for the big ballers would be ideal.

    Whatever it would or could be if anything would be awesome UO poker and cold beer on a Friday night rules.

    Tournament held on some third-party platform
