Lol i hope this thread is as good as the "my home casino" thread on 2p2.

In all seriousness its illegal and would no doubt be one massive headache, having a regular home game invite only is a different kettle of fish.

Be exciting to hold an 'underground' game though, get all sorts of shady characters to turn up and play high stakes cash games in a dimly lit room, bit like the Sopranos. 

I did day dream about having a few dodgy tournaments in the warehouse bit in my work.  We have enough space for probably around 10 tables easily, probably 15 at a push.  It's down a bit of a country lane and is very dark at night.  It's an old farm unit, I think the ambiance would be awesome there too.
