I tried out Poker Room this morning.

Don't like the interface as much as UB, but it's not that bad. I was seated at the table in the "sexy woman" spot Embarassed

I've asked them what it takes to set up a private tournament.

On PokerRoom.com, creating a private table is very simple if you download the software. I create public table all the time and private tables are just a selection.

I have not created a private table yet, but it should be simple.

I saw how to create a private table, but I want a private tournament (which hopefully Laughing will be multi-table)

I asked PokerRoom the other day and they said..

"Unfortunately we don't allow any 3rd party to sponsor events and tournaments at PokerRoom."


So much for that.....

Can't have a private tournament at Poker Room.

So, I'll set up another try at a UB tournament, and a small side-game on Poker Room sometime.

You can set up private tournaments with PokerStars. I set up a private tournament every week.

Here are some notes:

$10 + $1 - min. buyin
has a set payout structure based on entries
you can have multiple tables

PokerStars (like many of the other poker sites) is not Mac friendly. Poker ROOM otoh is Windows and/or Java based and therefore is warm and fuzzy towards Mac users (such as myself)

that is why I mentioned the new feature at poker room.
