Being a lurker from the Chiptalk days I purchased a lot of chips from Jim between 2010 - 2016 and had benefited greatly from the @TheChipRoom sales at the time. Last year I was in need of money and ended up selling and profiting heavily from many chips I was fortunate to buy in these sales. Jim continues to offer great deals that can't be matched but the sales we were privy to back then were insane. I am starting a new job on Monday and am really excited but also know times are probably very tough for many of you.

I have decided to do something crazy and offer up my heads-up tournament set at cost. I saw the 100s are very sought after and going for a crazy price but I am offering all of these chips for exactly what I paid for them in the Chiproom sale back in 2011. Here is my receipt (I purchased extras and added $500s later at the same price).

The final sale price will be*:

Primary $5 x 30 - $.49 - $14.70
Primary $25 x 34 - $.49 - $16.66
Secondary $100 x 40 - $.79 - $31.60
Primary $500 x 6 - $4.00 - $24.00

Total - 110 Chips - $87 (4 cents processing charge)

Shipping - $8 SFRB US
International - Actual Shipping (International shipping may be delayed due to COVID-19 pandemic)

*Winner agrees to pay the above price for the set and will not flake. The winner refusing to pay the above will result in me getting super pissed off.

How to Win (specifics added 9:05 Eastern 3/27/2020)


I will do a random number generator to select 8 entries to play in a final table hand for the right to the chips. Players with multiple entries can win multiple seats to the final table. Hypothetically, someone with 8 or more entries can make up the entire final table!

Once I do the random generator whoever is in the one seat gets to choose the game. They can choose from the following:

Hold Em
Omaha
7-Card
Razz
Badugi (No draw dealt one at a time F*CK YEAH)
A-5 Lowball (No draw dealt one at a time F*CK YEAH)
2-7 Lowball (No draw dealt one at a time F*CK YEAH)

The other 7 entries that make the final table will also win a random chip offered at some point by the Chiproom for their participation.

Deadline for entering is 8 PM, Monday 3/30/2020.

So... After looking at the chart.. if the Beers beat Detroit and Denver beats Atlanta in the American Southwestern Division East Northern, then Milwaukee goes to the Denslow Cup, unless Baltimore can upset Buffalo and Charlotte ties Toronto, then Oakland would play LA and Pittsburgh in a blind choice round Robin....
 
A picture of the thread posted in the thread. That's some real inception level shit. And your avatar is Bane? Wait...

Be honest, are you Christopher Nolan?
Listen.... I see 13, but I believe I'm at 172....

This joke gave me the stupidest idea ever. With sports all canceled and nothing to do, PCF Poker Random League!

32 Member league. People "compete" in randomly drawn heads-up poker hands like the ones you see in giveaways.

Each hand is a "game". We play an 82 game regular season. Track the results with standings. At the end do a best of 7 playoffs bracket with the top 12 teams.

Conferences will be broken up into divisions. Divisions will be based on actual member's locations to keep things simple.

We all put up two prizes. One smaller prize (chip of $5-10 value) That winner of each division gets from the losers of that division. One larger prize (chip/sample set of $25-50) that gets broken up among the top 4 with majority going to winner.

Also... OMG SPORTS PLEASE COME BACK LOOK WHAT YOU ARE DOING TO ME

128 PCFers flip, 1 PCFer wins....

I am apart of the Northwest Southern Desert league North.
 
I came for the pron but it's a fun contest. I kind of want to play but I don't need the chips. So if I can be "in" I will give the chips to 2nd place if I win. But if that is against the rules then just enjoy the pron.

My met gold cash game set.
