Looking to purchase a poker table for home games. I wanted to spend a bit more than the cheaper tables in the 3-500 dollar range, but not looking to spend thousands of dollars either.

I discovered Gorilla Gaming poker tables, and they appear to be of good quality, customizable, and fit in that mid range price for me (~$1,600).

Anyone here have any experience with their tables, and is willing to share a quick review?

Thanks!
 
I have a friend that purchased a gorilla gaming table, with the GG folding legs. The table is well made and sturdy, and the folding legs are the best in the business. I have the GG folding legs on my own table. They are very sturdy, which is necessary for a heavy table. If u need folding legs, the GG folding legs are a must buy.

I have another friend who went with the kidney shaped table from BBO poker tables. This table is very nice too, but more expensive than the basic GG table.

I don’t think u can go wrong buying from either GG or BBO.

I've not done business with BBO, but there are some threads to read through, there is some bad feedback for BBO
 
I have the full dealer rail 96in x 44in table... its awesome! A very sturdy quality table. I went with the casino gaming suede and I requested open cell foam for my playing surface. IMO closed cell foam is too firm... its harder for the dealer to shuffle and harder to peel up your cards.

I will say that we squeeze 10 players with full time dealer and its very tight.... 9 players + dealer is much more comfortable. if your gonna routinely have 10 players i would recommend going bigger. But again the table itself is a very good table
 
I have 2 of their tables - full oval and pub size - and another on the way.

I’ve moved them both across country with nary a scratch - very durable and very stable with the Gorilla legs.

Only wish is that the custom felt was speedcloth and would slide better, but not much of a concern with the smaller pub table where we play 7 max for circus mixed games.
 
It didn’t fit correctly. Ensure they show photos and a video of the shuffler inside the table, with the felt, flush and working before shipping it to you.

I had to do significant modifications with a saw on the table + the bracket to get it to fit.

It doesn’t come installed with the table. You have to re install it. They just prep it.

It sits in this funky bracket they can’t ship. And when I went to reinstall, the hole they cut out didn’t fit.

Hence get a video of it working with ur exact table before they ship.

Thanks for the tips!
 
I ordered a Gorilla Gaming table on June 30. Still waiting for pictures of the finished table. When I ordered they told me they were 6-8 weeks out. It's been just over 8 weeks so I'm not getting impatient yet. I'm hoping to get those pictures and having it shipped out this week. I will post pictures and a review here when I get it.
 
Did you get your table yet? I’m 10 days past, approved art for the felt and haven’t heard anything in a while.

This would be amazing. $10k+ lol.

Anyone got pics of their custom made tables?
 
Anyone have experience with the Gorilla swing-out cup holders?

It looks like the cups are removable from the ring. This would be preferable for players who are not using a cup holder—to be able to retract the ring support into/under the table, without the cup holder protruding several inches down.

Curious if anyone has this feature on their Gorilla table.

FWIW, further to the Gorilla Illuminati Full table shape... I ran a calculation at the site below, and the shape appears to be almost exactly the same as a superellipse with the following parameters (94 x 46, 2.33 “n” curve value).

The parts of the Gorilla table shape which extend outside the superellipse seem tiny. The slight variation may just be a rendering thing, or they may have bumped out the corners very slightly. The table curve seems just bit more angular if you look closely.

Have you played on a table like that?
If so, how many seated and what’s your thoughts?

I built a super-elliptical a few years ago, and I like the shape a lot better than a standard racetrack. Fits up to 9 comfortably, better site lines, easier dealing by players, less reaching.
 
Thanks. I can’t stand not being able to see the other players.

Share a pick if you can. Would like to see it.
