Poker sub-forum, would you use it?
Yeah, eventually this might belong in forum feedback, but I figured it should go here first to see if there was any actual interest.
Anyway, let's say hypothetically we could talk Geoff into creating a poker sub-forum under the otter farm. Would you use it at all? Of course it'd be for all the poker threads that keep popping up, but I was thinking that besides that it would be a cool place for us to talk about where we're playing, invite other others to join a tournament we're going to join, etc etc.
(Hey, it'd get more traffic then the book forum!)

Even though there are frequent poker threads, I don't know if there are enough. There are about as many poker threads as there are eBay threads, I think.

Yeah, the interface sucks, but there are all kidns of discussions there. A couple book authors/professional players run the site and participate often.

Although not a poker player myself, I am a gambler (craps, Blackjack, etc), and would be interested for the gambling discussions in general.

I have a hard time imagining a whole Poker Forum, but I'm certainly not against the idea, and I would definitely post in it if we had one.
Perhaps instead of simply Poker, you could open it up to all Card Games or Casino Games, or even broader than that?

I'd post there.
I flopped four 8s the other day, I was dealt 2 and flopped the other 2. Sadly I was only up against one other person so I didn't win much, but he had a full house so he did match my betting
