The new addition

 

[72o]

Wow. That is so friggin awesome. Hell of a job all around.

 

[bivey]

It's time I start adding the occasional inappropriate joke to this thread. Most of the best jokes at my job come from the patients. This one however, came from a colleague. Enjoy

Guy sits down at a bar and pulls a little man out of his pocket, setting him on the bar. He reaches into his other pocket and pulls out a little piano.

The little man starts playing bar tunes on the piano.

A second bar patron saddles up to the bar and says, "Hey, that's amazing! Where did you find such a cool little man?"

The guy responds, "Well it's funny you should ask. You see, I found this lamp. When I rubbed the lamp, a genie appeared! But this genie was a bit off. Instead of three wishes, I only got one, " and he gestured to the little man.

"I don't get it," says the patron, "why on earth did you ask for a little man playing the piano?"

"See for yourself," says the guy as he hands over the lamp, "It is useless to me now. But I'm warning you, the genie is a little off."

The patron rubs the lamp, wasting no time at all. The genie appears and proclaims that he will grant a single wish to the patron. " I want a million bucks!" cries the patron. Suddenly 1 million quacking ducks appear in the bar.

"See, I told you," says the guy...

Spoiler: Punchline

"...Do you really think I asked for a 10 inch pianist?"

Big tournament at the Chateau. Team tourney with 30 teams of 2. Makes for a crowded house, but it's very social and tons of fun. 5th annual event. CPS chips with starting stacks of 1,000,000 and blinds starting low at 1000-2000. By the time its over, I'm usually ready for everyone to get the hell out! Stoked to put new J5/Chanman felt in action on my first home built table. The last game at the Chateau.

A good time was had by all. And an excuse to get pr0n of the new table posted.

 

[72o]

Awesome man! Everything looks so great...except that Snapple.

 

[bivey]

Yeah. Brad no listen so good. Plans underway to make under-the-table drink holders.

What I do when I'm waiting for customs to arrive. Me no like fee-bay.

Looking for Bellagio/Mirage $5 (Bellagio preferred)

 

[bivey]

Thanks to Mikko at Spinetti's, a whole load of Bellagio ones and almost a barrel of fives on their way to add to the Bellagio/Mirage set. Waiting for customs costs me almost as much money as customs themselves.

Well, I've been on a bit a spree lately. It will be time to do some selling soon.

But don't worry, Tom. I've got my roll set aside S@PIII. But when that credit card bill comes in, the Mrs. will have a fit if I haven't moved some of these! I'd better be cleaning' chips all of April.

The chateau has been abandoned. There is a small sign outside that reads, "Closed for renovations"

Good chips, good friends, tables and beer; that's what it's all about

 

[bivey]

Damn, I hope the CSQ mold goes in soon. I hate the waiting for customs thing.

In the meantime, I'm going to take a daily shot from the same vantage point every day during our remodel. The Chateau is "closed for renovations" and hammers swing on Monday (supposedly). So here is the "pre" shot:

I love this idea. Can't wait to see the progress.

 

[Forty4]

really nice.. love the wine barrel look

Not sure if this is possible but if you could make the base a wine barrel that would be epic! Might have to cut it down a little.
