In case you were unaware, you can set up your own private Poker Club online at Poker Stars using its Home Games feature. Poker Stars Home Games are exactly what they sound like: private games in which you invite the players you want seated at the table. The only difference of course is that, in this case, the Home Game poker table is online.
Poker Stars offers 3 ways to learn how to set up your own Poker Club: through a handy “Home Game for Dummies” style video (with subtitles!), an animated step-by-step tutorial or described in simple verbal instructions.
In either case, you just download (or launch if already installed) the Poker Stars client. Then go to Home Games in the main game lobby. From there you’ll see two green buttons: one to Create to a Poker Club and one to accept someone else’s invitation to join their club.
If you’re setting up a new poker club you’re asked to give it a name and then you’re given an invitation code to send out to your prospective club members.
Once your club has been added to your lobby (which can take 4-5 days) you’ll see a Club Lobby button in your PokerStars poker client. In that tab you’ll see buttons to Manage Club, for accepting and rejecting membership applications, and Manage Games, to create tournaments and cash ring game tables in your desired stakes and gaming styles, including No Limit, Fixed Limit and Pot Limit, including Hold’em, Omaha and Stud.
The PokerStars Home Games feature also includes club leaderboards and member stats.
