This Friday at DEF CON I host the @… Poker Tournament, and novices are especially welcome.
We play Fri Aug 7, noon to 3, at the Horseshoe Poker Room in Vegas, with my dad running a beginner clinic at 11. This is not the ESPN boys' club version of poker. The room is safe, surveilled, and respectful, and the dealers are briefed to teach, not judge.
Your buy-in donation is also a full year of EFF membership. Send eff.org/poker to one curious friend.
