Hi All,
I have been gambling since I was a kid, breathing in the cigarette smoke and the beer fumes emanating through my uncle's and dad's pores. I remember the smell of pennies, nickels, and dimes lingering on my fingertips. I am at mid-life now, so you would think playing for that long would make you good, but I also played baseball for 9 years, and well, now I'm an engineer :). If I am good at anything it is enjoying the possibilities of the gamble, knowing when to walk away, and....sweating - I'm good at sweating.

I met some cool dudes at a home game recently, and it has reignited my interest in owning a proper set of poker chips. I hope this forum will be able to provide. Looking forward to the hang.

Glad you finally got your first post!
Welcome!

There’s a number of Houston guys on the forum, including @MrCatPants @Rieguy @TX_Golf_N_Poker, and others.

They all suck to varying degrees, but they’re on here. :)
Did you not read in his message? He said he met some cool dudes at a home game! He was referring to US! :ROFL: :ROFLMAO: :ROFL: :ROFLMAO: :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:

Clearly, he was just being nice.
 
Welcome to PCF! You can writer to your list of things you have a talent for. I enjoyed your very descriptive and visceral introduction. I could practically smell the coins on my hands. 😎

@quosco is either a liar or a poor judge of character. :p
