Hello World! (1 Viewer)

Hey everyone!

I am George from Athens, Greece. Long time lurker, first time poster!

I started playing poker over 10 years ago online and few times a year at home with a lame dice set.
I am lately thinking of starting a monthly cash game and started looking for a better set to accompany!

Cheers,
George F.

My mom loved Greece when she went there on vacation. Do you remember her ? She said if I went there, I would never come home it’s so nice.

Καλώς ήρθες Γιώργο!
Welcome!
Which part of Athens ?

 

[fandridis]

Thanks for the warm guys.
No, unfortunately I do not know any fellow Greeks on this forum. But it's never too late!

I am from Ag. Dimitrio, notia proastia.

Around 2011-12, I had just started playing poker and was close to get a Paulson WTHC, when it was still available everywhere.
Now I just hate myself for not pulling the trigger as it's nearly impossible to get a 200/300/80/20 (1$ - 5$ - 25$ - 100$) cash set from Paulson.

So now I'm considering making a custom set from CPC. We will see!

 

[Coyote]

OK, Old Phaleron here, if 6-handed, or Aghia Paraskevi, if 7/8-handed
Let's talk.

Welcome! I hear Greece is a beautiful place!! Any plans on what chips you're looking for yet?

 

[fandridis]

If you ignore few things like job opportunities and the bureocracy and focus on the weather and its people then yes, Greece can be a beautiful place!

I am not sure yet, but I always liked the style of Paulson WTHC or isthmus. So in the long term I would like to build a set from those or similar.

In the short term I want to get rid of my dice set for something better (l. anything is better I guess)
Maybe majestics or some other China clay from Apache, but they don’t ship to Greece.

Let the hunt begin!

Hmm you may be able to pick up royals or majestic from a member here, I've seen a few playable china clays come available recently. Also, both WTHC and casino do isthmus (CDI) are fantastic sets... the market is definitely in buyers favor..you may be able to pick up some CDI chips to start a set sooner than you think!
