I kinda like that one.

 

[Jampiece]

I agree! It is not conventional and doesn't look great, but isn't fugly. I like it! I like squared off dining tables and this would be great in the kitchen with a hard topper. Those craps chips troughs are really neat.

get a room you two!

This is definitely not the worst table we've seen here. It's got a simple esthetic that would probably still be useful. Wouldn't pay $1K for it, though.

 

[Taghkanic]

It’s like the Saarlac of poker tables.

...when you master rustic woodworking, yet have no taste.

 

[WedgeRock]

Wow. The sad part about it is that this takes some skill to make. But the aesthetics are awful and it's not even functional.

I 'd still play on it, under the right circumstances: rural setting, pick-up trucks parked outside in the bitter cold, fireplace thundering, with the smell of roasted lamb filling the room and ice-cold raki (crystal clear brandy) filliing the glasses, with some smoked cheese, before dinner is served and red wine takes over.
Dice chips, labeled though, should be the necessary complement.
Doesn't matter if you're way ahead or way behind

I think this table is felted with carpet... or maybe rubber? It's hard to tell.

Chips and home-made denomination white board included in the set!

And there's a purple table in the collection too, if you dare to click:

"Custom" chip denom board is sick!!! $700 is a steal.

Great googly-moogly, we have a new contender for the worst table!

• Hard surface, because lifting cards is overrated - check
• says "poker", in case you forgot what you were doing - check
• cards painted on table to remind you what cards are - check
• Unnecessary item painted in the middle - check
• Recessed chip trays to hide chips from opponents - check
• Hard crack in surface to make sliding chips/cards near impossible - check
• Unable to slide chips in without picking them up - check
• Shallow cupholders - check
• Some painted suits facing inward, and others outward - that's some bonus effort!

Please tell me the price on this was over $300!

I think this might actually be an attempt at a Tripoley (ish) table.

Still damn fugly.

 

[One Eyed Dollar]

I'm amazed more people didn't play Tripoley growing up and don't recognize these tables. I thought it was pretty common in the Midwest. My friend's family had a felt mat with the different sections on it. I like the painted cat for the Kitty in the middle.

 

[BSteck]

From a couple years ago when I thought Mint chips were cool. Still a fun excuse to play with some chippies.

 

[allforcharity]

Dammit now I've got a headache. I've got to lie down. No more picture posts until I've recovered, please.

Attracts fish, repels poker players. Genius!

If players get short, they can angle by bringing a small chisel to the game and discreetly detaching a high-denom chip.

Note to Self: When staining new table legs in garage - make sure you do it directly on the concrete

 

[allforcharity]

There is nothing...NOTHING!...redeeming about that table. Carry on.
