Pokerstars rakes their playmoney games heavily to prevent this kinda thing.

Lol?

You can start a Tournament with Playmoney entry. For as low as a 20 playmoney entry fee. Jcarverpoker does it all the time to give out stuff to American players.

Oh duh, you're right,  tournaments would work fine.

I was not thinking.

Used to play in mixed cash games in play money home games a few years ago.   We didn't they started raking play money till 45 min into a session we noticed over $500 missing from table.

Ah, yeah they are a bit harsh when it comes to playing cash games.

They did try already to setup an poker tournament at Pokerstars Homegames. Only there was the price some physical  coins only the interest was not enough to start it. Maybe when the buyin is not that high and the price will be in btc more people will participate.

Hey guys, I'm trying to see if there would be any interest to play some Poker at pokerstars for btc?

We would decide on a buy-in, send the btc to a trusted escrow, play in the home games club with a playmoney entry fee (So people from US can play aswell) and split up the winnings for top3 (Depending on amount of particiapants ofc).

Please let me know if there would be any interest in this.
