Re: How to make sure enough players show up for poker night?
People will show up when they feel like it unless their seat is taken when they do show up.
I run a game and have a small place, 8 is cramped. I just take all the rsvp's and stop when I reach 10. Once I started responding to people that the game is full and they are on a waiting list, they started responding more.
If they want to flake, they only have to let me know a few hours before the game starts, no hard feelings, no questions asked. If they don't let me know in advance that they can't make it, I will not hold a seat for them and they will be bumped if someone that is reliable and has rsvp'd shows up.
