Thought I'd share this group I found not long ago. Gaining a lot of new members from across the US and globe. I've been trying to educate many of the simpletons on rules, equipment, and of course the importance of quality chips! I've also made a few connections with players and games in my neck of the woods.

It’s a pretty good group. I’ve found like 4 new players and a couple of new games in the last few weeks.

I'm also in that group. It does seem like there are lots of opportunities to educate in there.

Just seems like a different culture than I’m used to. Raked home games and bad chips.

I agree with that. I found PCF before I found that Facebook group and now I think I am spoiled. I did see someone with a hotdog roller in the back of a photo of some homegame they posted. Figured it had to be a PCF member.

Just what I need, another poker related source to stay up to date on

That’s me. I’m always looking for decent home games, but so far it seems a page for posting nothing but underground high rake games.

The 2 local people that I know of on there (don’t personally know them) have tried to get me to play their underground games and wanted to advertise them on my groups FB poker group.

It is a bit of a drive from Cleveland to Fort Wayne but if you are ever in the area, you are welcome to play with us. We are pretty low stakes though. More for fun and bragging rights. I joined that page to see if there was anything ever going on around my area. It has been an interesting group to watch. Never realized so many people had raked games and would freely advertise them to strangers on the internet.

As @MrBoosh said, I try to educate them on the differences between an actual home game, and underground clubs. There's definitely more raked games being advertised, but I've seen quite a few actual home games. And have found a couple players, as well as PCFer!

Yeah, no.

Lots of ads for high rake games.

Lots of ads for raked games but you are banned if you mention online poker. Seems a bit odd to me.
