Front Street Block Party

**RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/nTC9d4HUSMNAkEB99zSw **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later** Hey block party fans, Come hang at the neighborhood block party with cold drinks, street games, and good energy. We’ll spend the first hour doing quick, app guided one on one chats to meet new people, then split into small groups to explore the festival together. The Gist IRL app pairs you for short, relaxed conversations so you can meet people one by one without the awkward mingling. Chat, laugh, and see who you click with. After the rounds, you’ll form a group of who you want to hang with. By then you’ll have a crew to play street games and explore the block party with The Plan: - 6:30PM: Check-In. Follow the link to set up your quick profile on your phone. - 6:35PM - 7:55PM: One-on-One Rounds. The app pairs you for focused chats. Find out who you click with. - 7:55PM+: Form Groups. Reconnect with your favorite matches, form a squad of 4-6, and grab drinks, play street games together, and head to a bar nearby. Let's skip the usual routine of exchanging handles and hoping to meet up someday. Instead, we're heading right out to grab drinks and play street games tonight, and you might just find your new starting lineup for future street festivals and game watch parties. Plus, when the block party winds down, you can easily keep the banter going and organize the next watch party through the app, without ever needing to hand out your actual phone number. See you all there! **RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/nTC9d4HUSMNAkEB99zSw **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later**

No Limit Hold Em! Sit & Go for 4 Free Giants Tix to start the night!

Hello SF Poker Community! We are giving away two (2) sets of a pair of Giants Tix for the first 10 RSVPs for our 2/3/5 NLHE game tonight (and every game going forward)! It will be a free, Turbo sit & go (around 15-30 min tops) The first person to bust out (with the worst hand as a tie-breaker) will receive a pair of Giants tix. The winner will also get two tix as well. Just a fun way to start the ring game. (\*\*Must buy into ring game to have a chance at the tix!) A little about me: I'm in SF for the next 15 months working on a new card game show...a little about me: I was the Poker teaching consultant backstage on Celebrity Poker Showdown on NBC/Bravo. I had a steady home game in NYC for years with close friends and acquaintances and friends of friends and would like to replicate it here in SF! A few perks of playing in my game: * Free Snacks & Drinks All Night * Pro Dealer (no tipping necessary), Chips, Cards * Good people, Good Poker, Good Vibes--Always * 4 Screens for Viewing Sports--Including NFL Sunday Ticket * Luxury apt, Full Security, w/Off-Street Parking Available * In Beautiful Mission Bay a Few Blocks from Oracle/Chase * You never know when you'll be playing with a Celeb/Sports figure! Why go to an impersonal card room with slow dealers and overpriced food when you can be making friends and connections with a regular crew of good people who have been vetted? (And if you're in, your referrals always take priority--So tell your friends!) In order to get in, please message me a little about you, when you can play, etc., and I will get back to you with further details. First come first served on reservations. I will allow future reservations 1 week in advance. I usually try to have a game Sunday (NFL Sundays! Golf Final Rounds, NBA Playoffs, NHL, & MLB!) and Friday but have had them on Tuesday & Thursdays as well. It's all up to when the gang can come. We usually play No Limit Hold em in the $100-1000 buy in range. D.M.A.
