Greeting from California! (1 Viewer)

[Zinfenmoor]

Played my very first poker game with my friends. Not many of us knew what we were doing but we had someone who knew enough to keep the games going and fun!

I've dipped my toes into the poker chip world and now I'm hooked.

Welcome! Did you play cash or tourney? Do you have a preference? What stakes are you starting at?

Welcome!

Do yourself a favor and don't get lost in all the chips. PCF, if you dig deep and ask questions, can easily be your "one stop shop" for information on how to properly run any home game.

Good luck

Glad you found your way here.

Welcome. I don't know if this represents the poker chip world or perhaps the underworld. But it's a world of poker chips for sure.

Not too sure what those are, will have to dwell a bit deeper and learn about it. What we did was give each player a stack of 20 chips (my friend had a cheap set of 100 unmarked chips) and kinda just learned as we played.

We probably will keep it to unmarked chips since we're playing super casually.

Cash is playing for what your buy in is, for example 100 dollars gets you $100 in chips.
Tournament is playing a set amount of chips for a set buy in, for example $50 gets you $20k in chips and you play until 1 or 2 players are left to take the final amount of everyone's money
