[QUOTE=Only Mostly Dead]  
I remembered why I hadn’t signed up for Neteller way back when. It does not have Maryland on its list of states during the account-creation procedure. Because of the online banking/gambling/whatever law on the books in Maryland.

I might need somebody else to finance me again. I’ll send you a check.  
[/QUOTE]

I think I can set you up with $20. Email me (using my user profile) your Neteller Account # (I think that is all I need to transfer to you)…it does look like they take a cut of the transfer amount from you though, so you’ll get like $19.xx.

How do I find our game on Gaming Club? Is it up yet?

**Capn** good luck to you…hope to see you back soon when you get the apnea under control.

Ooops, maybe I can’t help you since you don’t have a Neteller account. Is there a way to fund you on Gaming Club? I wouldn’t know yet…haven’t spent that much time on it.

I’m pretty sure there is player to player transfer there. Would help to avoid the neteller cut.

I am not sure if there is a gmae set up. Go to private games, mutli-table and do a search for SDMB. If there isn’t one, feel free to go ahead and create one. It is easy as pie (n chips).

I found [this](http://www.gamingclubpoker.com/software/MyAccount/InterTransferTerms.asp) within the game software, under “Inter account transfers.”

Looks like all you need is the person’s alias and amount of money you wish to transfer.

Does anyone know if Gaming Club will allow two people to be logged in at the same time from the same IP address? **OMD** and I ran into this trouble with Pokertropolis, but maybe (and hopefully) Gaming Club is different.

I couldn’t find the answer anywhere on the website.

IIRC, that was a disqualifier during the signup process.

I created a table ‘SDMB Private’. And it seems like they expanded the available buy-in options. So I selected 0.50 +0.05.

Honestly, I don’t know if _any_ poker site will allow that.

[QUOTE=CapnPitt]  
…Sorry for the hijack, but as one of the “charter” SDMB Poker Tour (sponsored by MAB and ether) players, I thought y’all deserved an explanation.  
[/QUOTE]

Capn: anytime you want to play, give a shout out to us Effers with a few hours notice and maybe we can fill up a table somewhere.

Btw, my father has had those sleep issues for several years, so they can be adjusted to.

And I’m not far behind you. I’m told my snore would wake the dead.

Oh, by the way - I am emerging from my computer-hardware-failure-induced coma, and expect to join you all Thursday night. As my only win this quarter has been ignored (rat bastard effers), I expect that my vengeance will be terrible, yet surprisingly sweet to my taste.

I just checked and the tournament is up, but the buy-in is shown as “$0.50 + $0.50”, which seems a rather high percentage for the house.

I played a couple of ring games last night. Typical lousy play that you see at lower levels. Meh.

I’ll check when I get home, but I am very certain I selected 0.50 + 0.05.

Yeah, it’s a $0.50+0.50 game. I’d rather have the $1+0.10 game, as it’s a dime more but the payout is better.

Yeti,

I sent you an email with my account info, so money can be transferred and I can get in tonight’s game.

Receive it?

Ditto. $.50 is way too much to the house.
