There's never been a better time to find out how to set up a PokerStars Home Games than right now.
Right now, PokerStars is your best choice to play private poker games online with friends. Earlier this year, PokerNews Chief Editor William Shillibier published an extensive guide on how to set up. If you have an agreement to share a bankroll or split profits with your friend, then in the interest of fairness, you're not allowed to play at the same cash game table or in the same Sit & Go. Players living in the same household are not allowed to play at the same cash game table or in the same Sit & Go.
PokerStars Home Games allow you to set up a private members club where you can play cash games and tournaments. All games can be for play money and real money, so you don't need to spend anything if you don't want to.

You can invite whoever you want and even keep track of tournament leader board standings.
