Joining from North Carolina (by way of Illinois) (1 Viewer)

[chicubs1988]

Hello All. I've being lurking around here for quite some time and finally created an account. I currently live/work in Eastern North Carolina, but I'm originally from Illinois with plans to head back once I'm out of the military. I'm in the process of strengthening the numbers for a regular home game and looking at buying a custom poker table (love Chanman's work) and a custom CPC set.

Thank you for serving. I worked with the Marines in Panama. It was a great group of guys.

So, Any poker chips?

I've got a Dunes commemorative set for tourneys that I bought years ago when I was in college, and I've got a Pharaoh's Club cash set from Apache Poker Chips. I'm going to replace these with custom sets.

I've also got ~100 $1 chips I've collected from each casino/card room that I've played in.

I'm hoping that custom chips and a table will help build the home game I currently play in. We get 6-8 regulars that can grow to 10 on a good night. I've got several friends returning from deployments soon, so hopefully adding them and "friends of friends" can get us up to 20 or so willing and able players.

Welcome Chicubs. Great site to explore. I joined a year ago and I still don't think I've tapped all the great information posted on here.
