Yes, but if we could round up enough people for a game of Omaha hi/lo I'd be way down for that.
Things I will not play are non-poker games, like 7/21, pass the trash, indian poker, follow the bitch, etc.
I'd play draw poker as part of a dealer's choice type game, but only grudgingly.
I won't play with wild cards

Isn't any game where you are trying to get the highest poker hand technically a poker variant? Hold' em is a poker variant itself. Personally I've always found hours of hold'em to be boring.
Well, yeah, follow the bitch is a poker game, but not one I want to play. 7/21 is not a poker game. Indian poker or Blind man's bluff is not a poker game.
I've mentioned several other poker games I'd play in a heartbeat. Omaha Hi, Omaha Hi/lo, Razz, Stud, Stud Hi/lo and even five card draw. I'd go for pineapple or iron cross, too. Just don't want to play with wild cards and don't want to play stuff that is essentially poker card lotto.

I don't see a problem with wild cards. Most of the cards are dealt up. You have to try and read people more and the cards less but I wouldn't call it card lotto.
Just a personal preference I guess. I've never played a serious poker game with wild cards
It's just so little money for such a long tournament.
Do you mean that the league buy-in is small compared to a nine game season or that the payout for a 3-5hr tournament is small?
The league buy-in for a 9 game tournament. Should be $100 or something. But if a large buy in discourages people from participating, I'll take the lower one .
