TLDR: I've been here a year, and I'm giving away some free stuff. You want a chance: reply "In"
Tournament registration is now CLOSED.
Hello PCF community,
Yesterday marked one year as part of this community! Years ago in college, I owned a set of suited 13.5g "real casino" chips. They were so much heavier and better than the other 11.5g dice chip my friends all had. They were awesome. It was awesome. I was awesome.
Fast forward to last year and I no longer had those chips. I wanted to find those same amazing chips, to you know....elevate the poker game I hosted. I found a youtube channel about poker chips (thanks @Hobbyphilic ) and found out there are a variety of chip materials and you need to buy samples. I bought every sample I could, and had decided to buy a set of Nevada Jack's (I still love that ceramic feel). On a whim, I bought a sample set of ACTUAL CASINO!!! chips from the Horseshoe Cleveland.....if only I had not bought that sample set - my paypal would be much happier today...
To me, there was no contest, game over.
I then bought a rack of HS Cleveland $5s on fleaBay (still a soft spot in my heart for this chip). I started searching around for the other denominations, and found this community. I created an account so I could buy another rack of HS Cleveland $5s.
Since then, I've bought and sold 1000s of chips, as I defined and refined my taste in chips.
Almost every day I go through this internal philosophical debate about how many sets does one actually need?
But then I look at my chips and those thoughts go away. 
Anyway, to celebrate my 1 year as part of this insane community, I have one last set of a CELEBRATION DB and 2 bridge cut cards to give away for free. Free shipping worldwide.
You can read more about this set here: https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/celebration-heads-up-set.46021/
This was my first ambitious chipping project, and this dealer button and cut cards are the culmination of a lot of hard work/deals/PMs/persistence. This is my first "completed" set with accessories.
Thank you @T_Chan for doing the Celebration artwork.
Thank you @ABC Gifts and Awards for making the 60 mm buttons.
Thank you @MatB for running the cut card group buy.
I've met mostly fantastic (and some just okay) people in this community. I have made some great friendships and found some regular games here in Colorado. I think a lot of people find PCF first for the market place, but get drawn in to the community itself - I find myself spending more and more time in the other areas of the site now. And the vendors can make pretty much anything you can dream, how cool is that! Thank you PCF members and staff. Thank you @Tommy .
I'm going to do a7 8 table - 7 max SOHE all in. I'll re-seat after every round, since there will probably be two winners at each table.
This is for 1 Celebration DB and 2 bridge cut cards.
I'm going to leave this open for about a week or cap it at the first49 56 and then start the "tournament."
Reply "In" if you'd like to participate.
Thanks,
Mark
