Hi,

I'd like to play online in old style poker clubs and only versus human players.
Also, without tournaments and other big things.
And, of course, I want to play for money but legally...

Thanks,
donigh

Sound like you MUST sign to PKR. You may meet your future wife also.

Well, I mean a site where to pay only to have access to, with a subscription.
And all the money for the players.

Perhaps you can work on that sentence a bit more, I do not get what you want to say.

Sorry for my bad english.

I'm looking for a site where, based on a membership subscription only, I can play with other players and all the money should remain in our pockets.

No rake, no fun.

Do you mean sites with no rake (the small % of each pot taken by the house)?

That sort of online poker room can only exist on Imaginationland! :)

Regarding to live poker, that can exist if few or several of you all get together and play in someones house!
No person in the world will do something as challenging as running a poker room for free, I don't know, but I think that your English is not good enough to explain to us what you want, because, I really don't believe that you think someone will keep thousands of dollars for safekeeping, running the complicated software and keeping the hackers away just for fun...

I see what you did there :tongue:

@OP: Pretty certain no place like this exists, the only place you can play rake free poker is at a home game. As far as paying a subscription goes, it would just be too difficult for them to come up with a figure that would be appropriate for players of all stakes, since the amount of volume put in by each player will vary astronomically so it's an impossible task to estimate how much they would lose in rake that they'd need to make up via subscription fee.

Rake free ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rake_%28poker%29 )

Some online poker websites have done away with the rake altogether. These "rake free" poker rooms generate revenue by increasing traffic to the company's other profitable businesses (such as a casino or sportsbook) or by charging monthly membership or deposit fees. Some sites are only completely rake-free for frequent players, while offering reduced rake instead for other customers.

This thread makes absolutely no sense !!!
Also, betraiser takes 10% of your net winnings and probably there is rake now too (there is a post at 2plus2 about it, never really played there)....
