Today's meetup is limited to 12 BB and above only players and 2x2, 3x3 or 4x4 play only. Please help us keep this day limited and enjoy the open play on the other days if you or your friend are not BB or above. People make plans and travel to show up on limited days for limited play because it is limited to experienced players. Please do not show up if you are on the waitlist without checking first, or try to play 5's or 6's, with your friend that is learning how to play, or because it is not full with 12 players if you or your friend are not BB or above. We’d rather play with 9 experienced players on these limited days than open it up to beginners, friends that are learning, etc. There are other open days for that, and they are fun too.

Let us kick off with a stylish Happy Hour. We will have half-priced appetizers, glass of wine and rail drinks specials and special people from Maryland:) This is a joint meetup with my other meetups. You will get an opportunity to hang out with many insanely awesome socialites. Stonefish Grill is found in the Metro Points Mall, Unit J.
