Poker Stars recently introduced a Home Game Poker Club feature on their client, the idea is to make it alot easier for people to organize a game, keep track of stats automatically on their client directly. Below is a direct copy and paste from their website.

I have spoken with Shar as well as Wildbill, and they both support the idea of incorporating their current forum games into this league, that way everything can be alot more organized going forward.

Please join the Canada Poker's Forum Poker Club on Poker Stars with the club ID 10396 and the invitation code "canadapoker". One request, please include your CPF screenname when you send the request to join under the field "Your Name"

All admins can do it, so Shar, Bill, myself, whoever else wants to become an admin in the club. Right now Bill already joined and he's already an admin, and I'm open to adding whoever an admin as well.

Buzzzardd

And it only takes Stars a couple of minutes to accept you to the CPF club.

In ofcourse.

I like the added options it gives you for setting the games up. You can pick the level times, even have varied chip stacks etc.

Thank you for setting this up Wes.

Go into the Home Games tab of your client. There is an option to join or create a club.

When you click join it will ask for this info:

Club Id: 10396
Club Invitation code: canadapoker

Be sure to include your forum name in the space provided that asks for your name so Westside knows who you are.

He then will accept your membership.
