Was down 30 early, then finally hit nut boat over lower boat over trips. SCOOP!

Little victories are sweet.I've had positive influence on chip quality. New host opted for china clays over sluggos. Nothing fancy, but the majestic set is still great. Had a roller coaster night, in for $200, out for $425.

I mean, I don't even know where to begin with this. I host a 25c / 50c game. Come play for $20 ... Watch some bad movies, laugh, buy in for $20, drink like $100 of my bourbon. I don't care ... That's what it's all about.
By my count there's easily over $1000 on this table. I ran out of $20 and $50 plaques. I had to move up to the $100s.
Your boy BearMetal bought in for $140, so I definitely finished up. I remember when I bought these HSI chips. Had to have been more than 2 years ago. Finally got them into play and absolutely loved them.

Love seeing them on the felt! Such a great set, Iain!Got to meet my first chipping buddy yesterday! @BillyBluff kindly let us give his CPC set its first outing too. Ran great until dinner break, then stopped taking pictures…View attachment 1106351View attachment 1106353View attachment 1106354
Kudos to @OfficerLovejoy for sharing his experiences and amazing pics of our awesome poker night... It was a blast playing with you guys and for me as a host its always cool to see that everyone had a lot of fun! Can't wait for the next meet up ...PCF night in the Cologne, DE - Area and it was @NeoViny23 s turn hosting!
@5aces , @Santa123 @Dingdingding , two regulars and I travelled all the way out to rural Weilerswist southwest of Cologne.
The trip was rewarded immediately. Dieter and his wife were awesome hosts!
@Santa123 had trouble finding a place that still had food / does deliveries so Dieters wife picked up his order with her car so that the game could continue without pause.
.10/.20 - match the stack on Dieters awesome ASM set. The chips were perfectly broken in and shuffled like butter.
It was actually my first time playing on ASM/CPC and I gotta say - pretty freaking nice!

The ASMs were created as a T25 base set, but tourneys suck and we wanted to get the chips on the felt.
So we played the T100 as .10, the T500 as .50 and so on. Felt pretty Hustler casino live.

@Dingdingding played barely two hands in a row where he didn't make the nuts and completely ran the table over.
That in turn led me to adding on more and more chips after making a few costly second best hands. After about an hour of play I was in for €75 and stuck a bunch.

At around 11:30pm we switched to mixed games on Dieters brand spanking new Tiger Palace limit set.
Needles to say the chips are freaking awesome.
Canary - .10
Aqua - €2
Blaze orange 43mm - €10
Friendly .30/.60 stakes to introduce @5aces and the two regulars to the world beyond NLHE.
We played Omaha, Hollywood and SOHE and I'm pretty sure we managed to convert Sebastian (@5aces).

Fun night, thanks again @wonderpuddleFirst event of the 2023 Lighthouse League tonight and I busted out the new ihc solids (before they hit the mill). Great chips, and defending league champ Grant @yarbs keeps running hot and beats @TricycleClub and @IllCallOneTime to take it down. View attachment 1106364

Happy wife happy life!!Wife putting stacks on stacks last night at our 1/2... My stacks kept going to everyone else...

I like this guy’s game tho. Healthy amount of chips! Booyah!Wife is out of town, had nothing to do, so I went to a poker game. It doesn't happen very often but I do play some holdem…… 1 round holdem, 1 round plo. 2/5/10-25. I would be up a lot more but got dealt kk twice in holdem and ran into aces both times. Holdem blows.
