As I stated privately to another party...  feel free not to play.

not all games appeal to all players.  Backgammon is mindless.   I play it
BECAUSE it's mindless.

Chess requires way too much "work" for me.   Chex is the only variant I'll 
play of it.   I'd play TileChess, but darn it!... Steve Jackson Games won't
give us permission to run it here.

Many other games... I don't play.   Poker... I'll play.   Any time.   Any
where.   Regardless of whether it's for fun.   or cash.  (of course 
how much cash is a decision I leave to my wife)  

Friendly games are just that.   Friendly.  Low stakes.  An evening out.
Casino games..?   I won't play at a standard table (too easy to lose your
shirt).   But a Sit-n-Go tournament?   or a bigger tourney?   depends on 
if I've got the buy=in handy.   If I've got it...  I'm in.

But please don't tell me that it's not an appropriate game for pbmserv
