Are you taking a set to Thanksgiving dinner? (1 Viewer)

I'll be taking my overlabel RHC set to dinner tomorrow. We alerted the guests that a poker set will be on deck for anyone who wants to pitch cards. I heard there will be almost 50 people, so starting a game should be no issue. Could end up being 2 tables, who knows. Does anyone do this traditionally? I'm hoping to start a tradition. Eat some good food then play cash.

Nope. It will just be my wife and I hanging out. We are having burgers, fries, and a salad of some sort. She isn't into poker. We will probably binge watch something after the Lions game.

I'm taking my travel set of DDLMs. I'm going to a pretty small gathering at my Aunt's house though - only 7 potential players. There's a better chance they're used to augment a board game than poker.

In years past I would have a poker game Thanksgiving night. Leftovers and dessert. But now with 4 kids and being older I’m too tired by that time to have a game.

Awesome idea!

I’m going to try to get my son and wife to play three handed. Our extended family gets together on Christmas Eve so the pool of degens will be larger. Enjoy your games.

Bring a set to Thanksgiving dinner? I think there are people on this site who bring a set with them when they go to the bathroom!

Too much tryptophan going around on turkey day to play effectively. We just watched football, drank some wine and chilled.

I 'm not taking a set to Christmas and Easter dinners (no Thx giving outside the US) but I still tend to measure people's tables and ask them if they play poker or if they would like to learn

Nope. The dinner was outside, and it got cold fast. Most people left pretty quickly. No game. Wah wah.

I host Thanksgiving and Christmas so my sets are there. I try to run games whenever family is over because we have some players.
