In future, could you please hide pics of your set in a "spoiler" button and let everyone know it's NSFW? Now I have to wait for everyone else in the office to go home first before I can get out from behind my desk.

What an amazing design and story. I know it's spread out over a few threads (I have to go find them) but I love the history behind your game, the name, and it may sound strange, but I really feel that vibe through your set!

Yup just wanted to chime in here. I am very new but of the customs I have seen so far these are my absolute stunning favourite. Awesome write up behind the colours here too. Enlightening.

I am not new and have seen plenty of custom sets, but I would still have to say that the world of CPC customs belongs to @Eloe2000 and the rest of us just live in it. I’d take this set over my own

@Eloe2000's and @JeepologyOffroad's sets could make disparaging comments about my mother and I would forgive them both.

 

[VivasTable]

These are in my top 3 favorite designs I've seen on my short time on this site. They are so well done I can't help but keep searching the site for more.

The presentation was also so good, you are obviously very talented in photography.
Was the stump you took the photo's on the old Mango tree?

Beautiful chips. I'll trade for my dice chips.

You mounted a great comeback against Castaway Casino so I am keeping on my toes!

Yeah yeah yeah.. although I think my fate against you would have been the same

Hurricane Nicole can’t stop our game. Still outside too.

Do you have the goofy plexiglass cover for the board cards in case it gets breezy like the did for the WSOP in 1997???



Stay safe and enjoy the game!

Haha, I do yeah. But I use a glass slat used for slatted windows. It’s a necessity! Just not that bad tonight. We are on the clean side of the storm so it sucked all of the bad weather out.

Good strategy.

Casa Mango sits in the genera area of Little Havana, Miami. 8th Street (Calle Ocho) is the main street in the neighborhood and the center of Cuban history and culture in Miami and has had immeasurable influence on the overall history and culture of Miami.

The mascot of Little Havana is the rooster and there are plenty of feral chickens and roosters roaming around the neighborhood. Roosters have a magnificent gold and red and rusty brown color.

Chip has “8st” on the reverse side as opposed to “$8” on the front.

 

[louBdub]

Myself & @WhiteMamba1646 must have one of these.

It’s absolutely required for our happiness and sleep.

Not sure, but we might be the only Cubans on PCF!

FWIW I ran a "no commitment" presale on these for interest. I ordered plenty for those people, but I am days away from leaving for the summer so that will have to wait until late August. But, I got you. Don't bother PMing me about these.

Technically I am not Cuban either, but I have been granted an honorary status by my players and my kids can't eat anything without lime on it.

This was the only reply in that thread……. The rest was just mumbo jumbo, don’t read it.

Amazing chip, buddy! Is it just me, or does the DG Tiger look like Peach — and the DG Peach more like DG Arc Yellow?

 

[Rieguy]

Nice work! Butterscotch is such a rich color. My eyes are seeing arc and peach instead of peach and tiger on the inserts for some reason.

I see the same thing, LOL.

It was just really bright out right now. Those colors as well as the Butterscotch look much less bright in flat right.

Regardless, think we can all agree that Butterscotch is a great colour. And don't get me started on that shaped inlay...

Wow, I completely missed that thread. (I had taken a 2-3 month break from PCF after my mom passed away last year--actually a year ago today.) If I had seen that, I would have definitely been in for a chip, especially since besides just loving the Casa Mango chips in general, "8" is a lucky number in Chinese culture, and I love oddball denoms with special meanings!

And I would have made an unsolicited suggestion to put a silhouette of a crowing rooster on the roof of the house in the inlay. ;-)

 

[louBdub]

The butterscotch really changes with light variations

Such a great color

Natural outside light

Inside Kitchen lights

Sorry, I have just been so out of loop here. I promised one or two people from the "Best Of" competition sample sets. Sorry, but my inbox has cratered. Can you remind me who you are? I have them packaged up and ready to go.
