Default Re: Home Poker Games - A small Rant

2 ideas for you:

1) We instituted a "Whiners Tax" in our home game. Anyone could call a Whine on a player who was both ahead and moaned about a bad beat/play- the offending Whiner paid the guy down the most $ at the time a buck. 2x in one hour, the Whine Tax became $2, etc. This could be expanded to tax any & all whines for $1 to go into the "Pizzabeer Fund".

2) We also have a Socialist/Communist house rule of wealth redistribution: Big Winner as of midnight pays for everyone's food & drinks for the night. Spares the host from having to look like a cheap-ass and ask everyone to pitch in $, the guy winning doesn't mind being generous, and losers appreciate the freebie.
