Outdoor poker play (screen room) (1 Viewer)

[terpfan007]

I currently play poker outside here in Central Florida and was curious if anyone else plays outdoors as well.

It's in a screen room so there's no bugs and it's warm enough pretty much year round to play without any concern (jerry rigged some tarps around the entire screen room and a small space heater for when the outside temps did get down in the low 50's) but I'm wondering if anyone else does this as I'm looking to improve my lighting as I currently just use the lights from my two ceiling fans out there and don't particularly want to run wiring for More lights so either something battery operated or a different type of bulb to put in the fans that is adjustable to increase the lighting for poker nights.

We did it last week. Porch don’t even have a door lol.
We planned on moving downstairs when it got dark. I didn’t see a reason to be outside after dark.

Flying Submarine Card Room is in a three-season room.

I have clamp lights for above the table(s) and fans for the hot months. We played a 2TT through a brown out once...

Here's a shot from last week before a STT with family.

Love an outdoor game, I wish we had the weather to play outside year round!

You wish! It’s that perfect padded rail everyone hates. I think it’s just alright.

BTW, rakes in a home game make it illegal.

We made it outside for the one Thursday it hasn't rained in London this year. Will have better lighting for the board next time

Wow, great to see all of these. I ended up just getting stronger bulbs for our two ceiling fan lights (2,000 lumen) and it works great. It's a little warm here in Orlando and can be 80 even at 11pm but we make it work.

Can @T_Chan build a table with a bug zapper light?

Wouldn't it just zap the players as they are looking at their hole cards?

Wouldn't there be dead bugs on the table?

If you're referring to my average poker hand, then yes.

Always wanted to spread a game out of doors. Plans to build a gazebo large enough to play with power and screens. Maybe next year.
