Hello from Chicago! (1 Viewer)

[eb33]

Hello! I am a new poker enthusiast with occasional games for about 5 people but with hopes of expanding to more people in my new job.

I am on the lookout for a decent set under $200 and just googling around for a good one.

Looking to learn from everyone and excited to be here!

Welcome. Lived there from 93-97.

What kind of games do you host? Cash or tourney? Clay Paulsons are suddenly very affordable with several large influxes of chips.

You will probably want to get samples first but let me know.

 

[Chipandchair]

Do you normally play a cash game, tournaments, or both?

25 initial with a buy in again

Copag is standard. Good quality, relatively cheap, durable. Setups (two decks) should run about $15 and last a loooong time.

Welcome! Lived in Chicago most of my life and visit often, you will love it...especially the stuffed pizza

I originally signed up at PCF while researching playing cards and ended up ordering from Desjgn since it's a local vendor here. Couldn't be happier with the order
