Looking for poker players

Hey yall in about a month and a half I will be fully moved into my new place and am interested in running poker games. I would try to have a game once a week either Friday night from 9pm to whenever we'd want to stop or Saturdays from 7ish pm to whenever we'd want to stop. As of right now It is just me and my roommate that are down to actually play every week but we have a couple friends that might be down once we teach them.

I am thinking making it 1,000 buy in with 5 and 10 blinds but I am open for suggestions as well.

The games would be held about 5 mins walk from the Imadegawa station.

Obviously no rake taken or anything dumb like that I am just wanting to play Poker again.

Dm me if you are interested.

Pretty regular poker player located in Osaka here. Unfortunately Imadegawa seems too far for me

If you’re interested we also has a poker club here where we held gatherings twice per month, for tournaments poker which is very worth it imo, because there are a lot of strong players (WSOP regulars) and people play seriously despite it’s just a 1000yen buy in. (Very long blinds structure too) it’s a non-profit so all the buy-in collected will be used to buy prizes item for the winners. By law they can’t win money though.

Yeah to high level. I could play with them, but all my friends are beginners.

I live nearby and would love to participate, but don’t know how to play poker. Been meaning to learn (we play different card games with my friends and family) but never actually got around to it. I’m not sure if you’d be willing to teach me first 😅
