I play a weekly bar game (3 tables), and I normally supply the chips (Currently bringing a set of Milanos). The crew loves the chips (compared to the dice chips they were using). However, I will be taking a new job which will limit my ability to play this game and bring chips. A few weeks ago...

One of my first tourney sets was the clay smith Milano chips. I had quite the collection, but have since sold all but a traveling tourney set. I usually play in a Sunday casual 3 table bar game, and I provide the chips when I play. Over the last year or so, the pink 5k chips have appeared...

In another recent thread, it was suggested that some members were singularly focused and didnt have outside interests, such as tools. Prove them wrong, post up your cool wrenches, and even better if they’re customized! This isn’t all the wrenches I own, not even close… but it’s the ones I...

Played a couple tourneys this weekend. One 2-table I got 3rd place woot! And another 5 table tourney, I shipped. Well, it was a 4-way chop, but having the chip lead, I was given more money and 1st place.. Here’s the oops: I had a commanding lead, so I thought. And so the table thought. I had...

Playing a two table tourney last night, and after I busted out (while waiting for the cash game to start) I was interested in the FT play (especially when all-ins were declared (to get cash game players). Anyway, there was a hand last night that had me cringing a bit, and I wasn’t sure if maybe...

5 table tourney This afternoon… Down to final table bubble. Aggressive blinds. im the short stack with 65k, blinds at 3/6k. I’ve been brutalized with coolers for the previous 4 hours. Managed to not go completely broke, but just folded my KK pre vs a 5 bet for all my chips. I was against a...

I saw the movie last night. Wow, great flick. Here’s the thing nagging me… in the end, when Mav and Rooster are infiltrating the enemy airbase, they are seen running to blend in. I did not notice them with helmets (and actually thought, ya hose might stand out and give them away). However. In...

Help me pay for the MTTD commemorative chips. :). All 34 chips shown are included in this auction. They have not seen felt until this photo shoot. They are mint, unplayed. Ships via priority. (Will ship International, IF buyer accepts All risks once chips arrive at post office). If buyer...

OK, It's been a minute since I've ordered custom ceramics. My go to was Sal... Who's the new preferred vendor you like? Project will involve a number of 43-46" chips (meetup commemorative and also some business promotional chips). Probably 300 or so total. Tried searching, but didnt get the...

OK, I think I know what I am going to do, but I wanted to toss out this nugget in case I’m overlooking something.. We are building a game table for our new cabin up north. we are retrofitting an existing 48” wide solid table to install a play surface and rail. I usually like doing a lip to...

Well, given these crazy times, we really wanted a place to get away, a retreat of sorts… away from the chaos of work, drama, and civilization…. He he. Herein lies our journey towards cabin life. Be forewarned, it’s not crazy exciting, but we might have a smattering of gamboling involved to...

Happy Independence Day!

My wife texted me suggesting we get an ATV for our up north adventures. Lots of great trails, and the entire county where our cabin is lives around ATV use (every bar and store has ATV parking). When asking my buddies up north about ATVs the only advice I got was that ATVs are scarce and there’s...

Not sure if anyone has used this yet, but it looks like the perfect size. If I didn’t already have a custom chip cabinet, I’d have purchased this in a heartbeat. I spent years looking for a cabinet like this. only unknowns (possible concerns) would be how sturdy the shelves are, to...

Of all the books and movies I’ve seen/read, Mr. Clark is by far one of my favorite characters. This book, “Without remorse“ is one of my favorite books. This new reimagined movie version doesn’t look half bad. I sure hope they do it justice. If you’ve seen Tom Clancy’s Clear and Present...

I'm contemplating buying a bunch of silver (maybe gold) to diversify. I've never done this, and want physical product. Any thoughts on this? What do I need to know? I was thinking of starting with maybe $1k in 1oz silver bars to start...?

This table top slot machine is being sold locally, and I’m talking to the seller. Any guesses on what it’s worth? The sales price sounds reasonable, and I think this might be a cool addition to the game room, or even a conversation piece. what do I have here? I know this isn’t super...

Looking for a solar charger for portable USB powered devices. Price, value, performance, and durability are considerations. Any recommendations or links appreciated.

I know it’s the burning question... when can we all get back to playing live poker... but when will that be, and what will that look like (to start)? I know it’s coming, and probably not far off IMHO. Would I feel comfortable in hosting a live game tonight? Nope, too soon imho. But as...

Started printing off these mask straps for face masks. Anyone else doing any craft projects to help out? Let’s see ‘em.
