Default Re: If you\'re the new guy at a home game...

When looking for games outside your own regular home games, would you ever go to one where you didn't know anyone?

After moving to NW Arkansas a couple of years ago, I knew very few people and none of those that I did know played poker, so I began e-mailing guys from the homepokergames.com site and in a couple of weeks we had a game. The first night, I didn't know a sole as they arrived to my house (made the wife quite nervous) and eventually built this group into a regaular 2-table group each month.

Not once in the 2 years I was there did anyone get out of line. Poker players generally know the rules and in an area where there are a lot more players than games, most are on their best behavior.
