New here and wanted to say hi. New in the poker world but excited to start on new custom table and looking for some better chips.

Hello and welcome!

 

[barefooter18]

for my table build I am looking to do 10 seats with raised rail. keep it 48x96 or cut it down?

Hello and welcome. I've not built a table but wish you luck with yours!

Welcome!

If you are looking to do 10 seats I would definitely keep it at 48x96 if you have the space. We sometimes play up to 9 players on a table that size and it's a good fit. Players have plenty of room and are not crammed together. If you cut it down and added another player I would think people would be on top of one another.

Good luck on the build and the hunt for chips! This place is an amazing resource.

Welcome from a fellow Yinzer now residing in NC!

My regular Friday game ALWAYS has 10 players and we play on my 92X44 table. It’s comfortable but can feel a little cramped especially if we get a few larger “gents” in the game. My occasional alternate host has the full 96X48 and it’s a significant increase in elbow room.

I’m in 100% agree with @BlueMerle …keep it 96X48 if you have the room. It’s amazing how much extra room that 4 inches on both length and width gives compared to my table.

Again, welcome and prepare yourself to spend way more than you told yourself you would!

Ok, my view might be tainted by me being a fat guy and all, but you want as much table as possible for ten people. Keep it 48x96.

 

[BlueMerle]

Here is 9 players at my table. 8 in the photo because I'm taking the picture. We do have the dealer slot and do not utilize that space, something maybe to think about.

 

[barefooter18]

Exactly the stuff I wanted to hear! Will keep it 96x48. Like the idea of a dealer slot but we only do self dealt games so might save that for the next build.

A lot of people consider a dealer slot so they have easy access to chips for color ups or rebuys. If you primarily do self dealt games, it may be better to add a drawer that slides underneath instead of consuming valuable table real estate with a tray. Use the search function here. Someone perfected the drawer add on for a table here already.

Hi Dave,

Welcome to PCF

 

[luvpokerchips]

Welcome Dave from another fellow yinzer.

I am from Pgh too.

 

[RolloPollo]

Welcome !!

 

[luvpokerchips]

Welcome !!

Thanks again!! I remember you from day one. I read Scandinavians like to put a little bit of butter in their coffee and coffee over there is widely consumed. I just had 2 ristrettos. I wish you well.

Welcome @luvpokerchips from another yinzer!

Thank you. Not sure if it is my laptop. but PCF site is very sluggish. I have to double click certain things + I get a oops at the top.
I am awaiting an aluminum case from discountpoker. I hope it fits my Majestics. They are a hair larger than my Royal Flush.

Welcome @luvpokerchips from another yinzer!

I got my Lucky Horseshoe set the other day. Lets go Bucco's.

Congrats on getting your first set of chips. But you have a better chance of playing hold em with your cards up and having a winning session then the Pirates do having a winning session!

I sometimes talk to the bus driver if he/she isn't busy with a load full of live cargo. If I am asked how I'm doing, I answer better than the Steelers or Pirates. Last month, I said, if we get nuked, at least we won't suffer through another BB season. I was thinking of going to a game but, tickets are expensive even with senior discount and/or Giant Eagle advantage card + I'm not putting any of their app on my phone. Just give me a damn paper ticket.
I have 500 Majestic 5/25/100, Royal Flush 1/5/25/50/100 and Lucky Horseshoe same as R F. I hope the Bank and Majestic denoms come in soon. No more after that.

ps. I do enjoy playing gin rummy online against the computer. I hope I didn't commit a faux pas. I notice the site isn't sluggish. Maybe I leave my email address up and come in thru the email I get from PCF.
