    Royal Flush Giveaway *Closed* and *Completed*

    Congrats on the milestone, and I'm in. (It would be the least I've lost in 5-card Omaha.)

    In, unless the New Sonny's I briefly had way back in the CT days were leaded... Great giveaway!

    Best Bond... James Bond

    If he does this to an Irish accent, I don't want to imagine what he'd do to an English one. Tom Cruise's Irish Accent

    Best Bond... James Bond

    Could someone please go check on @pltrgyst ? It seems he's hit his head, because he's muttering nonsense. ;)

    Just Switched to USAA, Bye Geico!

    Probably some sort of sponsorship deal -- his go-to chant is now officially: USAA! USAA! USAA!

    Is chiptalk dead?

    I left CT after buying my custom ASMs, so I wasn't there for the "Supporter" program... Was it simply a way to pay for site costs, or was it something else? At the very least, I know it ended poorly...

    Your Beer of Choice?

    I'm surprised -- as a proud Englishman, I would have expected you to be drinking a nice pint of Fuller's. :D

    Best Bond... James Bond

    Not a lot of times I disagree with Poker Zombie, but Silva is just Zorin 2.0 Badass and psychotic: check. Slaughtering the mine full of workers with a flood and shooting them, laughing all the time... finishes up, looks at his watch, and cooly retorts: "Right on schedule." Motivated and...

    Best Bond... James Bond

    Ursula Andress looked good in that role. And, for purely sentimental reasons, "A View to a Kill" is the best Bond movie.

    Big Top Poker Chips

    Your best bet for a pricing standard would have been the Jack Detroit chips, with the price range between Jim's sale price and the secondary Marketplace / eBay listings. And, in my objective opinion, Jim's price is not what most would consider "reasonable" -- most experienced chippers...

    SOLD Faux Clay Shed-load - 1902 chips for $220

    I agree with a number of posts here: By far, the best injection plastic chips I've ever seen. I've got a barrel of 20 grey, and I won't part with them. Faux Clay Nation does indeed weep with this sale $220 is an absolutely amazing price for these -- if you're new to chipping, you'd be foolish...

    Help with a set for my daughter

    I like the second version over the first, but there a couple of things that might be of concern: 1. The filigree around the outside edge of the inlay is (a) too faint and (b) will likely not come out as you anticipate. It's tough enough to see the details when it's on my computer screen (label...

    Help with a set for my daughter

    Here's a set that I did with a theme similar to yours. Mack's Playroom You mentioned you already have an idea about a theme -- my biggest suggestion, if they're for/inspired by your daughter, is to make sure she has input into the design process (I used her favorite toys and her pet cat as the...

    You Are Not Prepared !

    Probably, because without Blizzard's approval, you might have a problem getting CPC (or most chipmakers) to print your inlay. That's not to say you couldn't get something close to your design -- we have a lot of talented designers on here that could work with you to tweak it enough to avoid...

    I went down this rabbit hole today...

    The more I think about this, the more I'm convinced it can be effectively used as a home game fix... I'm spitballing an idea here, so let me know if I'm going crazy: I've got a small oval table with a pedestal base and a couple of extensions for it: It's about the right size for a game up to...

    I went down this rabbit hole today...

    I've seen this before, and I while I think it would be perfect for upgrading a folding table -- one piece rail, no visible folds in the layout / table surface -- I don't think it would be cost effective. With the money you spend on it, you might be farther ahead just getting a better quality...
