Just hosted my first game! Not only was it my first time hosting a poker game, it was my first time hosting anything EVER.

It was just 5 handed 10c/20c with $10 buy in, between close friends whom I have known for approx 10 years. I have been playing poker for a long time but never with my friends, they probably only play once a year if at all. Wanted to post here as I used this forum was very useful in helping me set up the game.

Table : Researched extensively on this. Decided on 4 feet round tabletop as it was going to be largely a social game (so everyone can talk to one another) rather than serious poker. Also makes things easier as we are doing self deal. It was comfortable for 5 players.
Food and drinks : Another part where I researched. Ended up getting KFC chicken tenders, nuggets and fries. Stocked the fridge full of non-alcoholic drinks. My friends offered to chip in at the end but I declined. Since I only intend to host 3 to 4 times a year, it wouldnt cost a lot.
TV : Read the thread about what to put on the TV. Didnt have sports channels so I put Netflix's physical 100. Ended up being a good decision as everyone there enjoyed exercising and have seen the show.

Nice seeing some "Scrubs" in play !

Our previous 25 cent game has grown quite a bit over the last couple years. I guess when McDonald's cost $20 a person, money starts to become worth less.

It has been a while since I got my Nacional set in play... This was the first time with the 500s, so I went full Cuba theme with the drink and food too.

Got stuck on the last hand of the night when my set of kings ran into a flopped flush. Had to call bets getting 8:1 and more but the board didn't pair.

Wow.... Nice "meat"-up :-D

Played at @grantc54 's game over the weekend. Ran hot early on, but couldn't get anything going after reaching the final table and ended up 6th out of 21 after my AK fell to pocket Ks.

Great game with some great people!

You'll have to use those fingerling potatoes. A standard Russet won't fit in a SFRB.

So this is what they mean by sustainable packaging? No more packing peanuts!

brought a set of my chips to be used at @bvegas80 game last night. Unfortunately they didn’t care to run well for me and I lost the 2 big pots I played.

Bahahaha! Exactly what I thought when I saw the pic. They’re so delicious

My guess is auto shuffler noise dampener

The table came with a hole for a shuffler that he doesn’t have yet. So that is a piece not wood with that cloth over it for now.

I think I have an extra shuffletech in box unopened still if he can’t find one

Easter office micro game, featuring what I will claim is the first time in Europe we see The NUTS topper, DB and cut cards! @Himewad @louBdub

The chipes are courtesy of the great @Ben8257 with an assist from @Gear, complete with @desjgn cards. Good times, and the GC's were a hit!

Relabeling those hundreds as 10c is a serious baller move!!! Always loved that chip.

Enjoy brother! I knew they were going to an amazing home! Took a long time putting that whole set back together and glad they are finally hitting the felt overseas a couple years later. Original Cali awesoness, hopefully a few $5s make it in play... tell those folks to stop playing so tight! Lol

Love seeing the NUTS topper in play! I really think those things turned out fantastic!

Side note: I didn't plan it this way, but the NUTS logo fits the flop, turn and river cards perfectly. Happy accident!
