First time poster from Iowa. (1 Viewer)

[BottomPair7]

I've been lurking in the shadows for a while now and thought it was about time for my first post. My wife and I are both nurses and this forum (and it's rabbit holes) helped me get through the pandemic. I have been hosting regular monthly tournaments since last June. I "upgraded" my dice chips to Claysmith's the mint chips before the pandemic. I now have approval from my administration to upgrade to ceramics. Looking forward to being a part of this great community.

Welcome! I was in Iowa for the first time a few months ago, we have a plant in Decorah, and I discovered Toppling Goliath, which was spectacular.

Welcome! I'm in Iowa as well (Cedar Falls). Where abouts are you located? Maybe I can pad the numbers if you ever need another seat filled sometime..

There are a few of us scattered around the state. @Himewad @Dugthefish @Page @Beakertwang and a few others

My wife's family is from Decorah. We go up there a few times a year. I'm a big fan of Pseudo Sue.

I am also in CF. We moved there about 4 years ago. I grew up in the big city of Dike . I'm always looking to expand my game.

Thank you! I honestly had to look up where you are at. That's almost Missouri

Nice! Let me know when the next game is, I'm always down to play! I have a tournament of my own scheduled on April 10th. Not sure we'll get enough numbers yet but you are definitely welcome.

No...about 4 hours away on the other side of Iowa, but I have followed your game and love your chips!

I work weekend package at the hospital and can't make that. Thursday night is our night. Do you guys always play on Sunday?

Usually. I've tried to get weeknight games going but so far my player pool has too many out of town players to make it viable. I'll refrain from attempting to get anything going on Thursdays

Welcome! I’m in Burlington, but I keep hoping to get up to @Joe Harris ’s place for a game sometime. Perhaps I’ll see you at a table soon.


It’s about time for a legit Iowa meetup, I think.

We should meet up some time. Maybe I can introduce you to some of my regulars.

Hello and welcome (to posting)!

If you're going to go ceramics, then consider going fully custom. And take your time with the design. Chip sets (generally) aren't built in a day.

I would love to go custom. I'm a big fan of Windy Crest and Steel City Poker designs. Any recommendations on designers for ceramics?
