Any movie buffs here? Built this room last year as part of turning one of the barns into an apartment.
It’s not poker related but technically a mancave since the wife ”prefers to watch tv-shows on the TV inside the house”.
-130” 2.35:1 screen
-7.1.4 speaker system (meaning 4 dolby atmos), Klipsch
-Faux 4k projector (but still a beast), jvc x5900
-Marantz av receiver with an extra Emotiva amp for the front speakers
-3 buttkickers (one in each chaise longue)

Yup. Same size screen. I’ve had a Panasonic AE8000u that recognizes CinemaScope and expands automatically. I’ve been want to upgrade but waiting for 4K to come down in price a bit. Unfortunately Panasonic owns the patent for that feature and got out of the projector business. Also have old Klipsch reference speakers going through a Pioneer receiverAny movie buffs here?

Very nice! And awesome feature with the cinema scoop. Mine has lens memory but doesn’t automatically detect and change accordinglyYup. Same size screen.

Mine is more of a "man cabin" than cave It's a work in progress and not as fancy as some of the 5-star rooms posted here (which I'm so jealous of, with your built in cinemas and the like!) but I'm nevertheless proud of Blind Joe's Poker Shack, which I build from the ground up with my own two hands.
As I'm on a tight budget it's made mostly from reclaimed materials (pallet wood being a staple favourite of mine) with the exception of the skeleton structure; counter tops, fridges and even a set of kitchen drawers were all either given to me by friends and kind strangers or acquired for next to nothing.
I should mention that I have no skills in this department so yes I've made mistakes along the way and I've had do un-do and re-do plenty but it's nice to stand back and think "I did that!"
I'd post a picture of my Poker Shack "toilet" but—and this is no exaggeration—it is like something out of the wild west
As a French Chef once put it responding to complaints about the restaurant's toilet "You come to my place to eat; not to crap"I'd post a picture of my Poker Shack "toilet" but—and this is no exaggeration—it is like something out of the wild west
It is quite literally a cubical made out of old wooden gates crudely constructed near the woods (into which it drains ). No number 2s allowed (or indeed possible)
What the actual f! I loooovvvvve pinball. This is literally the coolest room I've ever seen. All I can say is wow
Looks great, I really like the color.New poker room, decided to refresh a part of my basement.
Addition of toilet too.
Before and after.

what city is that in the background? I know its somewhere cold btw awesome view!!Since Covid has reached an all-time high and we are forced to postpone our games. I decided to take this time to make some additions to the place so everyone can enjoy the experience even more when things are back up. Added some extra photos too

A new shot. Hoping to replace this table with something from Chan's in the future. Just need to convince the wife it's a necessary addition.

Some New Additions: Turning the adjacent area into a TV lounge for the guys to take a break from their coolers or simply to follow up on their sports team. I really dislike having the TV in the same room as the poker room because it starts distracting the players and slows down the action. It's not 100% completed yet but I'm working on a mid-century style extension.
