Sometimes it is hard to connect with everyone else, but it is possible. You don't need an invite. I have managed it by joining if someone elses game or just going into the tournment solo and it will put me in a match.
best thing to do neato is just try :-*
:)
im around on the xbox in a bit, i'll set a game up, so u can try xx
Texas Heat doesn't start until tomorrow. Also, I won't be home tonight until after 10pm EST (3am GMT).
i know silly, i just wanted to set up a game to see if u could join, and i may still be around a t 3 am lol
Joining regular games internationally isn't a problem. I've done it before.
I was just curious if we can join Texas Heat matches internationally, since they're hosted differently than regular matches.
I remember 1vs100 required an invite (or 'Join Game In Progress') from someone in the hosted country. I figured Full House Poker is similar. If so, I know to keep an eye out for invites when our UK members want to join me in a US match, and vice-versa.
I'm also curious if XP and money earned while in a session out of your own country saves to your account. In 1vs100, there were always weird score issues when playing internationally, plus you weren't eligible for prizes.
The XP and chips won carry over without a problem.

so whos in tonight then, will be online round about half 7, will send invites if needed
I was hoping I'd be home in time to jump into the UK session before 10pm GMT (5pm EST). But it's not looking so good.
I will definitely be on at 8pm EST (1am GMT) if anyone wants to steal John Malkovich's Oreos with me.
aww if i wasnt working tomorrow i would, dave will most likely be around though xx
Just got this yesterday and hoping to show you my pokerface ;D

11 Texas Heat sessions left to get those Season 2011 achievements.
I'm going to try to play every (US East Coast) Texas Heat session from this point forward, and possible other timezones if my schedule allows. Next up ...
Tuesday April 19th
Hyperblind Night
US East Coast Session: 8:00-10:00 p.m. (EST)
US West Coast Session: 8:00-10:00 p.m. (PST)

See you there. ;)
i think i might have to get this before the Spring Events end
Wont be on for the Tuesday session but will be online on Saturday, just for a bank-roll boost as I already have 100% for the DLC... O0
I may be home early enough to jump into the UK session (3pm EST / 8pm GMT).
I'll definitely be online tonight for the US East session (8pm EST / 1am GMT).
Depending on how tired I am, I may stick around for some of the US West session (11pm EST / 4am GMT)
Basically, if you see me online tonight, play some Texas Heat with me. ;)

mmmmmmmm................... you know me too well xx
I think i might get this tonight so i will join you neato!!
I might join in for @ least 1 session tonight.
I got some points from Tescos i will be on from 9pm.
aww man, i was on TD table for 12mins and screwed up with 5mins to go.... should have just folded til time ran out, i would have had 650k ... instead i finished with 40k :(
Try again at 1am, can i just sneak in the American ones or do i need a native to invite me??
You don't need an invite.
no i didn't but it took several goes to get into a game and i was in with 3 other Britons, the rest was the AI.
All the others left, then there was just me versus the AI. Once i worked out how they worked, i did really well in the 3rd game, finishing with almost 1mill and a silver badge. Some of the AI i learnt to avoid as they only betted when they had an amazing hand (found out the hard way to Marcela twice and Jen several times).
Most AI went strong on K or A, with another card ... one even went 3rd person all in with pocket 5's before the turn (crazy!!). If you had a good hand after the turn, you could bet big knowing they would generally have just 1 high card.
BUT THE AMOUNT OF TIMES I GOT SCREWED ON THE RIVER BY THE CHEATING FECKING AI. They're too damn lucky :(
Despite best laid plans, I didn't end up getting home until around 11pm EST. That's what happens when I try to get home before 5pm. #)
Thanks to DFuzz for taking all my monies last night. I'll get it back on Saturday. ;)

Yep. They are very lucky.
As to being in a room with all AI, that happens from time to time. The last update made it a bit better becaue people don't seem to be getting kicked as often, which is nice.
cant bloody believe i missed out, felt like crying last night, i missed you guys
Spent most of the night on the TD table, until the last game, that went horribly wrong. :(
Are we gonna have a fahrenheit pokeher night?
Every night should be Pokeher night!

US West Coast Session: 8:00-10:00 p.m. (PST)
UK Session: 8:00-10:00 p.m. (GMT)
I'll likely be on for the UK session (8pm GMT / 3pm EST). The US East & West sessions depend on if I go out that night. 8)
Don't forget that tonight is costume night. Any avatar wearing a costume unlocked in the game gets extra EXP.

I have my black dealer vest locked and loaded. 8)
Got my beers and Xbox at the ready. 8)
Finally got my Gold medal! :) Now I just need the 5 million chip achievement.
I'll try to be on for the US East session at 8pm EST, but it's looking like I may be going out.
Just got a Gold Medal but no achievement popped. :(
I had heard about that happening in the first week, but I thought they fixed that glitch.
I'm struggling to get Gold, i got 1,700 of 8,000 people but got Silver medal ???
i reckon i'm abotu 3.5m of my 5m after 3 sessions. 2 more should do it.

Me too. JP, just to cover bases, clear your Hard Drive's cache and delete all traces of Full House Poker from your console and redownload before playing next.

I got Gold on a fluke. I was on the 2nd Diamond Table with all Bots. I got a phonecall that I had to take, so I just kept going all in every hand, not really paying attention. A few times I glanced at my chips and thought I was going down, but I kept winning at the last hand.
I'm not really sure how the scoring works, but I'm guessing you get bonuses for winning with 'all in' hands, and probably for 'close calls' as there were several.
I got gold medal because I was playing all Computer bots and never once had a human being join my game all night on Saturday.
I'll probably play this tonight, it's Beginners night so i'm still level 10. I will also get some Gears 3 loving in ;)
sounds like a plan, what time does it start tonight
8pm GMT til 10pm GMT for Poker.
I wanna be on the same table as Failed!1!!
He's my bad luck charm :(
i'll be happy just to get a game, but i will try to get in the same game x
i won't be on tonight, i will be watching United and Shalke. So i won't be on til 9:45, I might do the 1am session instead.
I finally got my 5 million achievement last night while playing with Quinty. That completes the stressful timed "Season" achievements.
Now I just need to beat the All-Pro table. :(
Anyone playing tonight?
erm, probably not, getting miffed about the gold medal cheeve, tryin my best but nothin, might play kinect with marty
I don't know if I will play tonight or not. I'm considering it, but it depends on what else might be going on.
I'll play!!1!
I got my Gold Medal and the 5mil achievements on Saturday, even though i had to contend with Parky's pyscho All-In tactics. Which scared not only the entire AI into shivering wrecks ... but Failed also. :-\
Good fun, anyone on tonight?
(tis Double Exp tonight)
I'll probably be on tonight, simply because I need more chips to enter the All-Pro table (again!!!!).
I played the All-Pro table last night, and came in 3rd. :( I'm getting closer, it's just a horrible up-hill battle trying to gather 100,000 chips every time I lose. >:(
Aren't you level 50 yet, you get 250k cash advance at level 50
I'm level 30-something. :-\
Get to level 40 you get a 100k advance and can just keep playing it til you win ;)

Thanks! ;D I'll definitely be playing Texas Heat tonight and try to leve up to 40.
Getting 9 Bronze, Silver or Gold Medals in Heat events unlocks ingame Avatar costumes.
It's too bad Full House Poker avatar items can't be used outside of the game. :(
Double XP Night tonight. Anyone want to lose their fake money to me? 8)
anyone have a clue when Summer Heat is about?
Quote from: Failed on May 17, 2011, 10:08:40 PM

I haven't heard anything. In fact, MS and the dev team has been pretty quite about Texas Heat in general after the last patch. I wouldn't be surprised if they cancel Texas Heat altogether after this season ... and then develop a new game that's progressively worse.
I miss 1 vs 100. :'(
i don't, i prefer poker.
I would probably like Full House Poker more if they offered real prizes.
busting Parky is prize enough ;)
Tonight is the 2nd-to-last Texas Heat game this season. If you haven't unlocked those few season-specific achievements yet, you better get on it. ;)
This is it. Tonight is the last night to play Texas Heat. :-X
Summer Season begins June 4th
It will be free, have 3 achievements and will run for a limited period.
WOO HOO!
Spring Season gets an extra day on Saturday 28th.
Something to do with some server downtime that made the final day appear 1 day early and a buunch of people miss it.
Who the feck is gonna play the 8-10pm slot anyway, the match is on. FOOLS!!

First game will be on Saturday June 4th. Full schedule has not been announced, but I'm guessing it will be every Tuesday and Saturday, same as before.
Kinda disappointed that the Summer achievements are identical to those from Spring. :-\
Finally got my Gold Medal, just need another mill or 2 for the last achievement.
I played this season for the first time last week. lol
I'm currently level 26 from only playing Texas Heat, the 2 SP games i've done were for achievements only. Computer AI is immensely predictable.
