Cards with backs that look like "hundos"? That would be terrible.

So, yeah... probably.

Im late to the party and these are impossible to photograph but yup. Sister heard I liked cards so I got a deck of "999.9 Gold Playing Cards" with Benjamins on the back.
 
Check out these ripped up, disgusting office chairs around this table. You would smell like someone else's ass after being enveloped in one of those things for a few hours. Those chairs can't be cleaned, the sweat soaks in and bacteria expels through the stitching, guaranteed to make your but itch for weeks.

Milk crates would be preferred and miles more hygienic.
Maybe they think this looks luxury with that 1983 burgundy table top and brass cup holders?
Geez louis imagine being that pretentious having their friends sit in such disgusting filth?

GFC made the Fugly Table Thread. I want to thank you personally. Oh, wait... Too soon. lol
 
This has to be a troll post. The guy has more jokes than any of us on this thread!

"You won't find another like this out there." Hell, you won't even be able to find this table in an empty basement!

"If you're looking for something to stand out on poker nights look no further...than my INVISIBLE table!" (friends are like "wtf is this loser talking about? I don't see no table")

The Losers Table. As in the loser who drops $3,500 on this table, then the first game idiot Greg drops the dealer button and shatters the table. Anyone that even plays on this table is a loser!

Imagine the noise that chips would make on that table! :wtf:

Nah, this type of table can only be used for:
- Play strip poker with bimbos.
- Prevent a gun from being pointed at you from under the table.
- Prevent cheating.
- Prevent something else that I don't dare to mention here.
 
Lul, wut? Casino quality you said?

If it wasn't foldable, it could still be fine. I once saw one of these tops fall with all the chips... and also drinks...

A friend and another neighbor have the same one, as a backup solution. I'll probably make some tops worthy of the name to replace them and that way, I'll agree to take my chips from them.

“Oops, I dropped my phone again”. Looks up at everyone’s cards…

Hey guys check it out. I trained my dog, Worm, to sit under the table and whine when he sees any ace or king during play.

I even have some of my players bringing him treats now! One guy only feeds him when he’s the one with one of the cards. This racket is now beyond +EV.

Okay, don't call me an idiot, but I had a smidgen of a similar idea when I was thinking about adding a poker table with interior design considerations.

Would NEVER do an invisible top, but was thinking a transparent (acrylic/Lucite/clear glass) base and clear acrylic Philip Starck ghost chairs (no armrests) so the table top almost appears to 'float'.

I abandoned the idea because it's quite expensive to get a vintage Lucite table base (or to have it made) and the ghost chairs do not look particularly comfortable.

I kind of like that idea, but here's the thing. I have a beautiful Chanman table. The legs are phenomenal, and have an inverted arc so nobody has ever banged a knee. There is a little shelf that can hold spare chips, racks or cupholders.

Nobody knows it's there. Until I mention that is where the supplies are, nobody knows (and the cupholders are an eye-popping electric blue). As far as players can tell, all tables float unless the legs interfere with their comfort.

Post a pic! Otherwise, it doesn't exist.

But you can't. Why?
Because it's the fugly poker table thread! Haha
 
Does it count if I show it as a link?
Haha, of course not! But I'm as indecisive as you. Am I allowed to talk about a great table in this thread? :unsure: :LOL: :laugh:

Wow! As beautiful as it is impressive! I just love everything about it! The shape, the style, the theme of the felt (The 2 lines ending the betting line and refer to the glass) and the finishing touches which are undoubtedly exceptional! By the way, the bunch of grapes is really a great idea! :love:

I made an octagonal table for a friend a few years ago (of course not as beautiful). Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures on hand and he now lives 400 km away from me. We used a roulette rake to push the chips. Is that the case for you too?

Distance isn't an issue. One of the nice things about a @T_Chan table is that he will build it to an exact spec. In our case, the table is the length of my arm to the table's center. If you are shorter than 6' (183cm) you may need assistance pulling chips,, but unless everyone is short, it's not an issue.

Because the table lives in the kitchen area, the grape touches were to theme with the drawer pulls.

Interesting and inspiring! Thanks for sharing!

We Swiss are short haha. I'm kidding, even though I'm in the 2nd category, because I'm 173 cm tall. To clarify, we used the roulette rake when we were down to 5 or 4 at the end of a game.

All this seriously motivates me. Because I'm currently developing the plans for my future table. As mentioned in another post, I'll probably produce 1 or 2 tables for friends first. Which will allow me to improve my skills in pulling the leather on the edges of the "armrest". Which is definitely the hardest part of this exercise.
