    Weekly Slashpoker Tourney

    We are going to be starting our weekly private game on stars here pretty soon.  We usually play NL holdem, and very rarely play some other game like omaha or omaha h/l.  With HORSE and HOSE being added to the games that PokerStars offered we are thinking of doing one of those as the weekly game. 

     I know that all you folks love your NL holdem push any two cards, but I think it would be funner to have a limit game with 4 or 5 different types of poker.  Let me know what you think?  We have emailed support and will get a timeline on when it will be added.

    Haha, yeah. Right now horse has not been added to the  private tourney options, but I just email support to find out if and when it will be.

    Their answer, whatever that means =)

    Thank you for writing us.

    At this time HORSE is still in the early stages of deployment.  Once we
    have assessed the popularity of the games, we will consider various changes.

    Please write us again at any time if you have any questions or comments.

    Regards,

    I say yeah to HORSE or HOSE.  HOSE may be easier at first to ease into it.  Looks like it will be awhile anyway.  They did progress from play HORSE to money HORSE and HORSE SNGs pretty quickly though.

    Re: Weekly Slashpoker Tourney

    Ditto, i'd love to see horse for the weekly games, or at least half of them. Prefer HORSE to HOSE, but I can live with either.

    Welcome to the site. I almost missed this post for some reason. If Stars would only let me pick wild cards, the tourney would get interesting fast! We used to play all of those games as dealer's choice and I must say some of them were sick! You think people don't fold not, make the game NL with wild cards and everyone looks at all of the cards.

    Re: Weekly Slashpoker Tourney

    Thanks for the welcome.  I'm new to the site, but not to poker! lol  I play a lot out here in the Valley.  Probably too much!  Wait, is there such thing?

    As for the wacky games, things got a little interesting when you had 12 wild cards...lol
