Poker

We want to have fun without losing any money! So we play “Play Money” poker tournaments online on Pokerstars as a private group. Absolutely no real money is exchanged. We play for the honor of winning a very competitive game. Free $15K play money is provided by Pokerstars every few hours just by logging in and depositing it.

We have Tournaments Every Day. Games start Wednesdays at 8 pm and Saturdays at 2:30 pm Pacific, last 2 to 2 1/2 hours. On other days games start at 7:45 PM Pacific. You have to first register on Pokerstars and join our Home Games Clubs to be able to play. Contact us for details.

We use Microsoft Teams for an audio conference call while playing Poker on Wednesdays. It is similar to Zoom and Google Meet. No app install is needed (but won’t hurt if you have it) if you are joining as guest from a browser on a laptop, desktop, or chromebook. You do need to first install the Microsoft Teams app if using Teams on a phone or tablet. Below is the invite link to our Microsoft Teams meeting, if a Director has asked you to join. https://teams.live.com/meet/93226264331954

Here is a link to Pokerstars play money site that also has instructional information and videos: http://pokerstars.bet. Many people have great difficulty installing the app on Laptops. iPad version is easier. Look for the App “Pokerstars Lite” or “Pokerstars Play Money Poker”. The one you want has the caption “The Thrill of Poker” and the word LITE under the Pokerstars logo.
