SOLD Huge Giveaway, Winners Announced, Yay (1 Viewer)

[Lil Tuna]

Appreciate the nomination @Ben8257. If I could pick 2 people for this based on just this past year alone, you and @FordPickup92 would be my choices.
You guys have come into this community with complete enthusiasm and positiveness over the last year. It’s been interesting, fun and wonderful to see 2 newer members be and get involved like you have.
The place has definitely brightened up a bit since you guys have rolled up in here.
That aside, I’m going to play by the rules set up by #SingleButterBalls or whatever he is (lots of love @BarrieJ3) and my single nomination goes to @Seeking Alpha Social Club.
When I was newer in the hobby I met Kevin through a mutual poker friend. I was instantly invited to play in his regular game and got to learn much more about the world of chipping.
What I can say about @Seeking Alpha Social Club is this, Kevin would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it.
He got me up to speed on many things chipping when I was new to this and has treated me like family ever since. I can’t thank him enough for his kindness and generosity.
Thank you brother! My nomination goes to you!
As for the rest of you, the entire Michigan crew, the east coast Mid Atlantic crew, SQM crew, my biggest chipping competition from Seattle, Mel and anyone I’ve done business with, Thank you and love you guys.
All of you keep this place special.
Sincerely,
Your #butterysweetLilTuna.

I'm not worthy of being entered into this, but I think you should have a shot at this @BarrieJ3. Not just from this post, but you've hooked me up at COST for a Tourney Set to make my High Demons worth a two-three table when you were charged almost double for your first set of the same chips! I also have a 50% off cash set you shipped on its way. You are a leading example for this community! I hope to meet you some day to shake your hand and buy you a drink or 20! Hope you and your family remain safe. Good luck everyone!

 

[i'm nobody]

Thanks for this opportunity.
I have given away 4 sets of colleckable cards to"
DML
FordPickup92
DetroitDad
Jeevansluck. and some free ceramics and desert palms

 

[longflop]

I don't know if this qualifies, but @Marhault should be eligible for spending a shit load of time dealing with china and be willing to handle and the reshipping in this time of madness. Keeping Donkeys happy one SFRB at a time.

 

[sheikh617]

Man I gotta be in on this one! Ran a GB for MSK jetons about 4 months into my membership and I recently have done quite a few giveaways related to my one year anniversary and my latest solids set that I finished.

GB - https://www.pokerchipforum.com/thre...p-buy-part-2-orders-closed.43971/#post-818800

Giveaway 2 - https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/bean-town-poker-1-year-giveaway.54574/

A few of the people I would have nominated have already been chosen so I'll have to give this some more thought as I would really like to include a nomination alongside my entry.

Y’all determine what qualifies by writing them in, but if it was me? Fo shizzle. I sure as hell don’t want 40,000 chips on my doorstep to send back out.

All about it brother! And I don’t normally jump into contests unless it’s something I need or could use, but damn this ended up being a lot bigger than I thought. Wish I could, but should be exciting for those that are in!

 

[Wyldfyre]

I'd like to nominate @p5woody.
- how easy he made my first custom design experience....
- how quickly he communicated and worked with me....
- and of course, how much I love the final design

 

[jbriod]

In
@pokerpig went the extra effort to send items to me ASAP during this national crisis and
@One Eyed Dollar for valuing and listening to my needs and suggestions

 

[Kasper Storrs]

I’m nominating @pltrgyst too, for his kindness in sending along a Casablanca $5 chip at his expense to help replace a missing chip. A small gesture but a huge help nonetheless. That chip is currently en route having been collated, along with about 20 other items, by @ReallyGoodUsername (my 2nd nomination). Tom’s helped me a few times, kindly receiving, repackaging and reshipping items for me to save on international shipping. A true star. Same should also be said for @arch3r, my 3rd nomination, who also helped with reshipping a year back. Lastly, @kaimat for the kindness shown with all the recent giveaways, of which I was luckily enough to win one! Keep on chipping.

Two great picks @jbriod. @pokerpig is an awesome chipper and good friend and @One Eyed Dollar just recently made me some spacers for my TRKs.
Just had to say these guys are great.

 

[markleteenie]

Renominate - @p5woody and @Marhault for helping me out with a custom project. Top tier chippers.

 

[Jake14mw]

My thanks to @justinreber . Please put him in the drawing. He sold me some Nexgen chips, gave me a great deal, and wound up including more chips than we even agreed on for the sale!

 

[TalkingChip]

I'm new to the forums but I'd like to give my shout out to @The Nuts for sliding in to my DMs and really providing good insight about this hobby. It's refreshing to see how open and welcoming this community is to the newer members like me. Thanks dude.

 

[Goldfish]

Not to complicate things, but does the nice heather have to have been done in connection with this forum? Or can it be a poker enthusiast who has done something worthy unrelated to poker or this forum?

 

[Goldfish]

*Guesture

 

[Thomacetti]

Andy @pokerplayingpisces -> Toys for Tots (4th year running)...many more but I'm limited to one

Thanks for running this @BarrieJ3

 

[doughboy63]

@Beakertwang for letting me borrow a fairly expensive barrel (outpost error 25c) for free to see if I liked them with my cash set.

 

[upNdown]

I''ll nominate @AK Chip - he ends up doing collections and payouts for the nightly pokerstars tournaments more than everybody else combined.
Honorable mention goes to @BGinGA for all the legwork he does on the pokerstars tournaments.

 

[BarrieJ3]

@Beakertwang for letting me borrow a fairly expensive barrel (outpost error 25c) for free to see if I liked them with my cash set.

Lol is that my old barrel I gave away in a freebie @Beakertwang? It’s all interconnected!

 

[Goldfish]

Not sure if this is eligible, my friend And former colleague Brian Stolarz (an attorney), worked For years (and for free), to get a wrongfully accused man off death row. The case was actually previewed on episode 8 of the Innocence Files on Netflix. It is an unbelievable story. He loves poker but is not a member of this forum.

Definitely a big thumbs up! Loves poker, he should join here!

If I start going off forum, I’ll get my nuts cooked and fed to me unfortunately.

Thank you brother!! The feeling is 100% mutual!! From the very first time I met you I knew you were one of the good ones. And I guarantee you, it takes a lot to be one of the good ones in my book!!

There are a number of GREAT people in this community, but anybody who has ever had the honor of interacting with Matt knows how awesome he is. He's a no bullshit straight shooter who would go out of his way to help anybody. I am honored to nominate @Lil Tuna as the king of AWESOME!!

 

[krafticus]

I’ll nominate @WedgeRock . We’ve never spoken, but I know if I ever need someone to talk to when I’m down, he will be there. Worth more than any set of chips.

And for the exact same reason, I also want to nominate @Chippy McChiperson . I know it’s more than 1, but they are rock solid people behind the big green curtain. (Or orange in this case)

[BarrieJ3]

Everything’s updated. Op updated; Add whoever you want in that you think meets the criteria, limits lifted.

Also updated prizes. Good luck to everyone running, this has turned out to be quite the magical giveaway. Many of the vendors involved have donated part or all of their items and time. When you have a moment, take a look at their offerings/wares.

 

[Chippy McChiperson]

I would nominate @krafticus, because I wouldn’t be a chipper without his influence, but I believe he’s already been nominated. Instead I’ll nominate another great guy, who has a fantastic sense of humour and a keen sense for design. A guy who I can always go to for great advice... @Toby

 

[jr8719]

I'll nominate @SeanGecko for shipping chips from the USA over to the UK for me — and doing so continuously without kicking up a fuss or expecting anything in return.

 

[Josh Kifer]

@FordPickup92
@AfterTheFact
@Zmasterben
@Saoliver

Good people

In that case,

Id like to nominate @Saoliver . A class act who has never failed to take the time to read and respond to my messages. You are a great friend and I cant wait to meet you someday. He also hooked me up with free Blue Chips and I'm forever grateful Scott. Thanks for being the great chipper and person that you are.

I'd also like to nominate @Steppenwolf . He's been a friend and confidente for me and has helped me in ways I don't think anyone else would on this entire site. He's that amazing. He's off this board for the most part but I believe he checks in when he can. He's a new dad now, and life takes precedence over PCF, but I want him to be recognized as a great person that I'm also hopeful to meet.
