Greetings from Wake Island (1 Viewer)

Good day everybody

Been looking at chips on here for years and now getting serious about having some Tina’s done for our cash and tournament games out here in the middle of the pacific. Most of you have probably never heard of Wake Island, but im sure many have heard of a very similar Midway Island. So there were some battles fought here as well, just a tiny rock out here between Hawaii and Guam. It’s the closest American territory to the international date line so we like to say this is where Americas day really begins.

The Alamo of the Pacific! Welcome! Are you hosting a game out on that rock?

Welcome! Looking at that island, it says a rotating population of about 100 military and contractor personnel? 10% of the pop to fill a table... Please tell me they fly in some beer and whiskey for your games... We're definitely going to need a couple pics of the action out there. Maybe drop a PCF care package or two that way.

Cheers!

Yes, I’ve been working out here for 10 years and most of those years we’ve had pretty regular games, depending on everything we have had a it to multiple games a week to maybe just once a month, but we really trying to get a weekly tournament, holiday tournaments, and a weekly cash game going thats a bit more permanent. Have you been out here before?

Yeah, standard population about 100 or so, but transient population can increase to 200 plus sometimes, luckily in the fire department we have enough for a small cash game ourselves and theres a handful of people from other shops that get us a pretty decent weekly tournament with 1 rebuy. Where theres a will, theres a way on beers and whiskey, we have a small bar here and one of our guys turned his living room into a bar, ill try to get some pics posted on here soon.

Wow, thought there’d be a few people who knew some folks been out here but didnt imagine one would know or be related to a POW here. Was he out of Idaho
