web cam and poker ?

[Cav57]

We have a regular group of guys that play every week.  Some of them can not make every week because of family duties, traveling due to work, etc etc. 

I just discovered web cameras. (ok, I'm little behind the times)  and I was wondering would you play in a game that was sent over the web to so your friends can watch and be part of the fun.  I'm only talking about 15 minutes (just enough to say hi, wish you were here) not the whole night.

This is not a league.  Just a group of guys playing poker instead of going to happy hour.

I thought it would fun.  This is not a serious high stakes game but we all play to win.

Your thoughts please.

Thanks

If they idea is that the missing player can get in on the camaraderie of the game, why the hell not?  So long as no cards are shown until after the hand, he doesn't coffee house during a hand, etc.  it would be a nice gesture, imo.

Now if it were a table full of naked women playing poker, I would be all for it!

That's a much better game in person than on webcam, though, I'm sure.
