A Men "The Master" bobblehead

For me, it's the full DVD collection of ESPN's hit series "Tilt".

I mean, seriously? Your plan for screwing the guy over is to make sure he only finishes 2nd in the main event?!?!?

There was this guy who had a giant polished rock for a card cover.....
 
Maybe if it showed him standing over a toilet trying to flush the chips?

Change the chair to a toilet overflowing with chips.

Someone needs to make a line of trolling poker player figures.

Men the Master: As described.
Hellmuth: Bullet hole in center of forehead.
Negreanu: Googly eyes with a Choice Center brochure and really noticeable hair plugs.
Todd Brunson: Exactly as normal, but holding a bunch of comic books.
Durrrr: Thin and sickly handcuffed to a Chinese guy discreetly holding a gun to his back as he sits at the table.
JRB: At the table giving hand jobs to both the whales sitting next to him and trying to push his stack in with his nose.
 
Once, a long time ago, I bought one of those octagonal table tops with a vinyl playing surface and no rail.

Everything else has been an ingenious and rewarding investment! Everything!

(Except maybe my buy-ins at pretty much every tournament I've played...)
 
For me the 600 dice chips I bought for about $300 what seems like forever ago. They got used for s few years until I bought my Paulson Pharoh's. Dumped the dice chips for about $50 and never looked back.
 
Same. $25 sent into the teeming abyss, but I feel like I lost the minimum.

Well, I just logged into to verify, but there was a problem with the membership when I purchased it and Ten had to hand jam the supporter banner. I canceled after the first year, but he never removed the supporter banner. I now take offense to being labeled a supporter of that site so I'd like to get it removed now.

I also just noticed that I have an new unread PM from you dated SEPT 2014. :eek: I guess it's been a while...:LOL: :laugh:

Dice chips weren't a bad start. Gotta walk before you can run.

Now what WAS dumb was when we started having bigger tournaments and I decided to get more dice chips. I had a work trip to Vegas coming up and I decided I wanted to save the shipping charges. So after checking in at the Venetian, I took a cab to Spinetti's and bought them in person...which meant I ended up paying NV tax which was more than shipping.

Man, that's right. I even bought dice plaques at one point.

This has to be the winner. Taking a cab to SPINETTI'S in VEGAS and buying dice chips. This is like taking a cab to a restaurant connected to a vineyard in Sonoma County, but paying a corkage fee to drink Two Buck Chuck.

Definitely Lifetime Supporter at the blue wall. Fucking rip-off artist.

EDIT: I bought a rack of live Foxwoods $25s once that disappeared in 3 hands at a 5/10 NLHE table. Set over set. I wish I never bought that rack fwiw.
 
The Laak figure comes with a Jennifer Tilly figure (basically boobs with a small head) that is feeding him bags of cash under the table.

Antonio's figure is wearing the most ridiculous outfit possible and standing in a rapper pose surrounding my miniature rocks and rings.

Love the Laak one. Antonio's has to incorporate "I love America!" somehow.
 
OK. Here's my updated list:
- "Tilt" DVD set
- Dice chips purchased in-person at Spinetti's (3 hour ordeal) when I could've been at a table
- "Play Poker Like the Pros" book
