This is how I found the table this morning. My final full house to win every chip on the table (£120 pot). 4 or more hours of rum drinking beyond midnight means I didn't remember any of the details.

Man this is why I don't always love samples. I see one of each of those colours of majestic in my samples and they don't do it for me. Then I come here and see them in stacks and all of a sudden they come alive and I love them lol
I do wish the $5 was a bit darker red or just a different color like pink for the frac. All in all a solid set.
 
Heads up about 1/3 stack vs villain.
My pocket KK gets called and I double up.
Back and forth for a bit with multiple all-ins and no callers. Stacks are about dead even.
Villain offers to call an all-in blindfolded as neither us are planning to keep any of the donated cash and he is dog tired.
I ask my boss(he brought me on the business trip)
if I should call blind as well…. YUP!!!
Here we go:
9-10 off vs my K-2


We run out a lowball straight to chop the pot!
Destiny, it seems, wanted a gentlemen’s handshake to call it a draw.

Turns out the guy is a multi millionaire so in good form, he dumps another $500 in the pot for charity.
I am a poor schmuck with $100 in my wallet so I donk it in as well.

First time
Playing in a looong time.

Closing thoughts…..
Plastic chips SUCK.
5-10-25-100 chips SUCK.
No real blind structure SUCKS!.
Raising a few grand for Dominos Pizzas employees down on their luck does NOT SUCK.
 
Sunday afternoon snow day in the Rain Town USA. Visited by @Saditsfact and @Franzister who played very well respectively. Tigers in play. Learned about their black light abilities. Food by Voodoo Doughnuts. Faded Spade FSX 4-color cards in play. Game called early due to ice and bad roads. In for $50 plus $5 HHJ, out for $275. @Saditsfact tied for the HHJ with A6 on a JJJAA board. Only full house of the afternoon.

Sunday Night @ Sunny's
The night started w/ @Godzilla28 WINNING without actually being present for the now traditional 1st hand All-In BLIND. Me on the other hand have tried it at least 4 times & have not won it once. #*@% me.

Fun night except for the fact that I was Bubble Boy. At least I outlasted @Dread_Pirate_Roberts? Congrats to @triton & @MVStillwater for cashing.
IN for $100
OUT for $0
My favorite was watching Herman & @sethwanab playing Shuffle Derailment for $5/hand waiting for me & Mike to bust. Classic!

THANKS @SPR for hosting...
 
Game two on the fresh table yesterday. 7 players, 18 total buyins (rebuys + addons) so healthy prize pool!

Cracked out the bridge size Faded Spades as well - feel tiny compared to the poker sized cards but overall work better especially for my slightly smaller table.

Cup holders arrived from stateside, I cut and added some PVC foam yoga mat into bottom of them to insulate from condensation reaching the playing surface. Not sure how big a difference it makes but an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure right?

Not as well as you lol.
That first photo showed the run out when I got stacked by a bigger straight in my first hand I played…

Those cards threw me in for a loop…

Fun game, thanks for the invite!
I’m glad I could claw my way back up on flopped sets :)

That last hand would have been interesting if it was pot limit

In for 225, out for $265 +$20 high hand

Yeah this last hand of the night was crazy. I flopped quad 8's, on a $2/4 PLO limit bomb pot. Even with that, there was $130 or so in the middle by the river, when it went 5 ways, capped. Glad you got a good picture of it. You made Aces full by the river, and it was "raise, re-raise, reraise, and cap it!!"

I mean, I still flopped top set, got the boat on turn :)
If it was pot limit, we would have gotten it all in (we were the big stacks).
@Franzister flipped his cards over before I could snap a photo, which is understandable the way it ended...
He had J2 for a boat on one board and a J9 for the high straight on the other board if I'm not mistaken.


When you announced you had quads, I thought you had quad 2's for a second... wasn't even looking at the other board I guess lol

Yeah I had no business being in that hand
 
Playing $1/$1 to play lower stakes than $1/$2 yet getting the straddle up to $128...classic.
No the point of 1/1 is to not use useless fracs. In my experience the stack size influences action way more than the blinds.

Even if it was 0.50/1, a $6-12 open won’t get many folds around here. A $35-55 3 bet might. Playing $100 deep is absolutely pointless.
