If you don't have at least 300 fracs, you're clearly not a serious Hold Me host.
Wow. Thanks for posting. I remember hearing about a game called “hold me” when I was a kid. There were a few farmers and car dealers that played it, and I never made the connection. I forgot all about it until you shared this.

Getting caught up on all those magazine subscriptions?
The ads in the magazine are amazing. Not sure what they are selling though.

I love this article, I've probably posted it half a dozen times over the years.

WTF, that's not a Hold Em' game, not one person in a hoodie or wearing sunglasses.

12 people at that round table sure looks comfortable.

The first casino poker tournament I ever played in was the Paris. This was early days and we had two tables of 14 to start. You literally had to squeeze in between two people, look at your cards, then slide out so someone else could slide in. It was a nightmare.
10 people at a table is way too many (9 is the max and 8 is the sweet spot), I wouldn't even think of playing with 12 (14 ).

7 is the sweet spot. This way we can call Dra2maha!
Actually, 8 makes it really hard to deal Scarney, I'm good with that.
For me the sweet spot for any cash game is 6-8.
