Absolutely bonkers hand just now. In the SB I picked up 9's. UTG + 2 min raises to 300. Button three bets to 800. I just call with the 9's. UTG + 2 shoves for 3450 effective, HJ calls the 3450, button calls, I shove for 8800 effective, HJ folds, button calla with me having him covered, and this happens...

UTG + 2 had queens. Hard to tell from the photo below though.

Why do you still have your Christmas tree up?
No room really left in the basement to store as we have 4 trees we set up each year. Main one on family room. My Eagles tree upstairs. And one outside. My wife's tree in basement stays up year round. Doesn't everybody do this? Ha ha
 
This Saturday was our Special Format Game for the Zombie Poker Dinner Club, featuring Razz (see other posts) and Brats!

You can see here the homemade baked beans (with bacon, of course) were getting demolished!

To help celebrate the format, one member brought Razzberry dessert.

The final hand of the night was really close, taking the 4th card of the poker hand to determine the winner!

Wow, that movie looks awful. Or it's an awful trailer, at least. Paul Schrader is a respected writer and director, though, so who knows.

Chips used:

At two different blackjack tables: Claysmith 12-stripes e.g. Desert Heat (relabeled as a casino starting with A - Aloni?)
At a poker table: Claysmith triangle-and-stick e.g. The Mint (relabeled as "PCC")
At a poker tournament, on both the early tables and the final table: Claysmith sword-and-spade e.g. Showdown (relabeled as as WSOP clone)
At a casino poker table: A 338 chip I don't recognize (0:54 in the clip). My guess is they're Langworthy plastics but it's hard to tell. Different casino than the blackjack chips.

The "WSOP" early tournament tables are made and branded by BBO Poker Tables

In prison they're using cut-up pieces of cards as betting tokens.

There's also a shot of some generic twelve-stripe sluggos on a roulette table, but I don't think that's in the movie, it's just spliced into the trailer.

Strange film. It held my interest, but I can’t say I liked it.

Though the movie shows signs of having been written by someone who knows poker and blackjack, it’s only a gambling movie on the surface. It’s really about PTSD and war crimes.
