This week, the boys talk about my recent visit to the Salt Lake City home game, one of my recent PokerNews articles , and other stuff. Listen here, with show notes: http://www.toppair.net/pls/apex/f?p=TOPPAIR:1:0 There will be more about that Utah home-game experience in my next PokerNews article, probably coming out Monday.

I just got back home last night from my annual trip to Utah to visit family. My father lives there with my sister and her husband, and my brother and his wife flew out from Minnesota so we could all be there together for a few days. This year, for the first time, Nina came along with me. We did something else new and different: We went to a home poker game. When I was a guest on the "Top Pair" podcast , which focuses primarily on home games, the hosts each invited me to drop in on their games if I were ever in their neighborhoods. One of them lives in Israel, so that's probably not happening anytime soon. But the other, Bruce Briggs, is in Salt Lake City. I emailed him a few weeks ago to see if the offer still stood, and he was gracious enough to contact some friends and put together a game night when Nina and I could attend. It was a delight. Friendly people, crazy games, and low stakes--what more could one ask for in a home poker game? Well, I guess one could ask to win...

Last night I was playing in a home game. You might say it's a small-stakes format, as we use blinds of $0.20/$0.20. Somebody suggested that we start up a bad-beat jackpot. After some discussion about how much to take from each pot and what the requirements to win it would be, it was settled. We started raking one 20-cent chip from every pot and putting it in a special cup set aside for that purpose. Four hands into the game, it hit, and the loser of the hand was awarded the new bad-beat jackpot of 80 cents. There was much cheering and rejoicing.
