Official Home Game Pics Thread! (56 Viewers)

I enjoyed reading that, thanks for sharing! Quite a few similarities with my group. I moved back to CA from NoVA in 1983, junior year of high school, became friends with a group of guys around my age +- a year or so (all of us were from like 5 different schools, lol) and started playing poker together later that year. Those were some good times/years back then - turkey day football, over the line, roller hockey, bowling, shooting pool, rec league basketball, etc. We lost our friend Mike, one of our founding members and my first year roommate in college, in 2017 - heat related medical emergency on a boy scout hike in San Rafael. Those of us who are still in the LA area get together whenever we can.

Played last night at my buddy Eric's house - 7 handed. 25/50¢ NLHE/PLO, $1/2 7 stud type games. In for $100, got worked over the first two freaking hands of the night (went all-in & got quartered in Pineapple Omaha8 and then all-in and coolered, PPLO8 again, on an Ace high flush to my King high flush, both times on the river and both times I was ahead after the turn - $%& ME! - I would have taken pics but I was too tilted/traumatized, haha). Bought in for another $100 and only won back $13 by the end of the night so in for $200 and out for $113).

Broke in the Super Poker World chips and got 3 rounds of "mario kart racing" in (25¢/.50/.75/$1) - the last round, the wives came around to see what all the shouting was about and we ended up dealing them in for the last race...

2 decks for 11 people.

Fast forward, #4 car Mario for the win! (of course I didn't have any 4's... smh) You know it's sad when you have more M&Ms than chips...

that dude loves peanut m+m's huh?
 
What's not to like - chocolatey, peanutey, and your hands stay relatively clean... ? :D (it was either those or gummi bears and I'd have to fight Tony for the gummi bears... haha)
@Sprouty gets it.

That's so cool you took a photo of your game. I definitely want to do that the next time I have a game. Just to look back and realize all the laughs and good times playing poker with people you enjoy being around.
Actually that's @Legend5555's photo. I kinda stole it....and may or may not have manipulerad it...
 
We recently got our regular game going again after a years long hiatus. Last night was our second meeting, but the first time any of us had seen a flopped royal flush. Dude managed to get it all in on the turn vs two pair, and the whole table went nuts when he flipped his cards over.

OK, so this isn't recent...came up today on my Facebook "memories". But I thought I'd share, since it made me happy.
Here are a couple of photos from the one and only time I put my Nevada Lodge in play for a STT.

Love this!

Except for this part: the one and only time I put my Nevada Lodge in play for a STT.
 
Curious about chip values as I see a $1, $5, $25, and $1k but no $100 or $500. Also, good work taking it down!

I going to guess there a cash game on the other half of the table after getting knock off the tourney

And there are no colouring up for this T5 tourney
Yeah it was a 20k tournament, some folks busted + played cash on the other half of the table. It was 5k orange, 1k green, 500 red, 100 white. I'm waiting to buy a new cards mold tourney set
