So Why Have A Poker Home Game

Playing poke at home is a really good idea if you have a few friends who all enjoy playing poker as you can all get together in your own home  and have a chat a few beers listen to some music and play under no presser unlike  in a casino. In the Poker home game I play in we all meet up every Monday night and play for $10 each total pot is always around $60-$100 (i will talk about prize break down later)

What You Will Need For A Poker Home Game.

This is one of the best poker tables you will find is  79 Inch Texas Holdem Padded Poker Table Top it will sit on a table top. The size of the poker table  is  79″ x 36″ This will easy fit up to 8 players.  It will  also fold up  to 36″ x 27″  making easy to store away when its not going to be in use. It also has a really nice padded rail making it really comfy for the players. It’s  also make for casino quality green felt making it look and feel like the real thing.

If you want to spend a bit less then i would pick this One Trademark Poker Texas Hold‘em Full-Size Folding Table Top. This is still a really good poker table that will fit on a work top or kitchen table. The size of the poker table is  80″x 36″ and will fit up to 8 players.  Each seat  has its own chip rack where you can keep your chips. The table is made from 1/2 inch piece of wood covered in a piece of green felt that makes it look really nice and good to play on.

Next You Will Need A Set Of Poker Chips

This is a really good set of chips Trademark Poker 500 Poker Chip Set where you will get 500 chips in the set, this will be loads for a home game of up to 10 players. The chips come in 4 different colors and i would make the value of the chips, White 50 points Red 100 chips Green 500 chips Black 1000 chips (I will talk about how many chips each player should to start with and blinds later)This chips set comes in a really nice heavy-duty aluminum case and 2 decks of cards  dealer and blind buttons. This is a great starter chip set and would make any poker home game really good

If you want to spend a little more then try this one Bicycle Premium Mega Masters 500 . This is a really good set of clay poker chips made by one of the poker playing card makers. In the set you will get 200 green chips 125 blue 100 red chips 75 black chips the chips weight is 11.5 gram making them feel and sound great, you will get 2 packs of Bicycle playing cards and a dealers and blind button. This will come is a really nice wooden box to keep them all safe

Getting Your Holdem Poker Home Game Started

Once you have bought some poker chips and cards you are ready to start your holdem poker home game. The next step is to invite all your friends over then  decide if you are going to play for fun or for money. If you are playing for money (lets say $10 each) you will all pay $10 each into the pot before the game starts.

If you only have 5 players then its best that  the top 2 players will win money 1st winning $35 2nd winning $15, if you get up to 9-10 players the pot will be $100 so 1st gets $50  2nd $30 and 3rd $20 but the payout is up to you and your players who are playing. Once everyone has paid then you should  share the chips out. The best games  you will all start will 10,000 chips each  7 x 1000 chips  4 x 500  7 x 100   6 x 50 chips  this will give you all plenty of chips and make the game last more then a few hands.

You are best making up your minds before you start who is going to deal and shuffle the game, this is really easy and not hard to do you. If you wanted you can buy some really good Card Shufflers for as little as $12 that will shuffle the cards for you.  When you start the game deal everyone one card face up.
