I mean my rate is pretty cheap depending on how many flight miles you have racked up..

Or, just try playing double board six card PLO with an implosion.

It's a crowd favorite!

Try playing double board six card PLO with an implosion with poker sized cards and get back to me.

I get it

I am violently against using poker sized cards.

I actually like poker size - easier to see them. But I understand the other side. I know a lot of pros don’t like poker size cause you have to lift them up higher creating a higher risk of exposing the hand.

I would need to switch to jumbo index if we stopped playing on the round table. But no way I go poker sized. I'm not a heathen.

How violent?

 

[CraigT78]

How violent?

I'll tear open a dog bed.

I'll tear open a dog bed.

And then keep playing? Or are all dog beds in the neighbourhood in danger?

Probably rebuy and keep playing

Does this ever become an issue? I'm not sure I'd been keen on this.

The only time we do self dealt is tournaments...sometimes we let the dealer player.

Wait till you get older and your eyes start to go. The first time you mistake a club for a spade and lose your stack cause u think you have a flush, you’re gonna convert really fast. Bigger is always better.

I'm sure I could just explain nicely that I thought I had a flush, and the villain would give my money back, right?

Controversial opinion coming:

4 colour deck. Poker size if you want.

(Although I've only seen Copags, as I think both Desjgn and Faded Spade are bridge)

I have zero opposition to a four color deck, assuming it's bridge sized.

TX card house or shuffle 214 should be good dealers as they do spread couple mixed games, they do double board bomb pots, they are all hand shuffle, and they all use bridge decks.

Probably Nick would be a good source since he works at Shuffle. I’m guessing they pull in with tips $30-40 pretax per hr. You may get some dealers willing to take less because they might, uh, plan to forget to file taxes

100% could not play for 8 hours with Nick as my dealer.

Put this on my headstone.

No name or dates? Just this? In Jumbo Index? Do we use the Joker image?

Estate planning is so difficult.

Want to see if anyone had a suggestion for me on how to find a dealer here in Chicago. I would there their may be some dealers from the local casinos who would work a “side job” for cash.

The south side of the city. I can send you a PM

They could lose their job if they get caught.
