Love the chips Use my Jacks for the 1st time last night!!A few pics from before and during my first hosted live game since February 2020!
I had a table of eight last night for .25/.50 NLHE including @Parrothedd's first appearance with my home crew! It was great to see him again, and I'm hoping to start calling him a reg soon.
Cards by @desjgn, guest button by @CraigT78, show'em chips by @ABC Gifts and Awards, and lucky card capper by @Josh Kifer:
Snacks and bar ready to go, fridge stocked with beer:
Jack Detroit for the first time back:
Beer #1 with a TTT flop in the background (yes, the winner flopped quads):
I didn't play a lot of hands last night. My cards were pretty awful and the table was super loose. I won two big pots over the course of the evening and was never in the red: one where I bluffed a player off a set of queens on a board. He tanked for a solid two minutes, then folded and threw his show'em chip at me. I really didn't want to show my .
The other hand was that turned a straight against a non-believing two pair. I peaked at about $325 on my $100 buy-in, but gave a chunk back by being card dead for the rest of the night after these two hands.
By the end of the night, the final tally for me was three beers, two whiskeys, and out for about $220. I'd planned to take a few more pictures, but I was so busy just having fun that the time got away from me.
Oops, that board should be .I bluffed a player off a set of queens on a board. He tanked for a solid two minutes, then folded and threw his show'em chip at me. I really didn't want to show my .
This Saturday was our final event of the year for the Zombie Poker Club. The 13th Zombie Poker Classic is a freeze-out event featuring larger chip stacks and prime rib! I bet you can guess why attendance was higher...
Key food items (as more showed up and I didn't always get pictures...) included the prime rib (cooked in the sous vide for 30 hours), mac 'n cheese, baked potatoes (with butter, sour cream, cheese, onion, and bacon), crab dip and crackers, chips with queso and salsa, shrimp with cocktail sauce, asparagus, and a cheese/meat/cracker platter.

I forgot to take pictures of the desserts, but they included pumpkin muffins (home-made), mini lemon cheesecakes (from scratch), assorted cookies, and a jelly roll.
With 20 players, we started the tournament with four tables of 5. Our dining table was converted with a PCF topper - that's where I started.

I spent the week psyching up to win my third bracelet (I'd be the first in the group to do that) and.... I almost did! I finished second to Vance with my KQ v his K10. I was ahead when we flipped the cards over, he caught a 10 on the turn, and the river was not the necessary Q. That's poker for you! I hope he enjoys MY bracelet!

Last item of note.... I won the last longer with @Poker Zombie and @Jonesey07
I'm sure it will come as no surprise, but we ran out of forks....Damn that's an incredible spread, I'm surprised you guys find the time to actually play cards with that much tasty food on hand!

We brought out the jumbo deck for 1 hand lol. Some of our players always say “I can’t see the board” so i break those out as a joke but we ended up playing a hand of SheShe with it hahaHow big are those cards? Or is it just the angles?
I didn't even notice the first time I looked through the photos.We brought out the jumbo deck for 1 hand lol. Some of our players always say “I can’t see the board” so i break those out as a joke but we ended up playing a hand of SheShe with it haha
Bro save some flex for the rest of us! Love those chips I’m in on the group buy so hopefully everything goes smoothly with that and I can get a set.
Great colour choices!View attachment 814087View attachment 814085
First time posting! Small $30 tournament last night. I took it down for $165 ($45 to 2nd place). 10/10/7/3 DDLM starting stacks. Won it at the 300/600 level while we were in process of coloring up the 25s (the rack was technically in play until after that hand I just had them ready to go). With around a 14,000 to 3,500 chip lead I Flopped top pair with KQ and villain shoved the turn with just 2nd pair. Blank on the river to win it.
Hey how bout that?! Same exact progression just tourney/cash difference. I also have one barrel of black T1k that I don’t like using unless necessary so it doesn’t come out too often. I love those plaques though! I don’t have any of them. I have the black dealer button but its always tough to spot on the table so I use the classic big thick dealer puck.
