Started at 124.5, then ramped it up to 127 for the following reasons...
- I read that sous vide beef looks more red than it's traditional counterpart cooked to the same temp. Because I was cooking for a wide range of people I felt that a little less red would be less likely to "gross out" those people that think a steak should be destroyed.
- The fatcap did not appear to be breaking down very well at 124.5. the finish (I think it was 9 hours) at 127 did a wonderful job. Fatcap was like gelatin. The internal marbling was buttery-soft but was very visible. I only wish I had taken some pics of the individual slices - they were things of beauty.

Don't they sell actual beer in Alaska?
(I suspect that's why that one guy's giving you the finger...)

Green beers and cheap American beer is where its at imo. But yes they have your fancy pants beers all over.
Is that some Alaskan moonshine in the mason jars ?
It was his mason jar cocktails he brought, didn't help my card game.Don't they sell actual beer in Alaska?

I think it came from one of his clients from Carolina. Drew is a hunting fishing guide in Iliamna Ak.
What is the similarity with American beer and sex on a boat ?Ales don't have to be "fancy pants" to be distinguishable from dishwater.
It is fucking close to water
That's so old I don't even have to click on the button.
Fortunately, America now produces more terrific beers than anywhere else in the world.
Canada is another matter entirely...

Hosting for the first time in awhile. Looking forward to putting the new BJ roulette chips into play, despite being in the process of relabeling into "Showboat Poker Club" chips
Played our league game on Tuesday, Texas Shootout. We had 4 tables with 34 players in total. I did poorly in the tournament finishing 17th (50% is a pass right?)
Followed up with a cash game with some CC dunes where I ran pretty godly despite not being at the table a lot of the night doing hosting duties. In for $40, out with $525 playing 25c/50c.
This was still early-ish in the night.
Quadrupled up early with AQ where I flopped an A which held. Memorable hand of the night though was where I double straddled to $2, 3 limps then villain in MP makes it $4, 3 more calls back to me and I raise to $24 blind although nobody else knew I was doing it blind. Back to villain who reraises all in to $49. Player to my right calls (has less than $49 total), I look down at J2 off and think to myself "what have I got myself into..." I call figuring I'm donating back to the pot. I end up hitting a wheel on the river.
I'd rather be lucky than good I guess.

First winning session I’ve had when hosting with a new chip set, these were definitely a hit with my crew! Fun $1/1 game tonight
Awesome chips mate
That house mold custom label set was Da Bomb! Now we just have to bring it to Monday game so we can get the $500s into play.

Love the chip mix! looks awesome (y) :thumbsup:
Agreed. These really turned out great, good job.
Finally had some hands hold up. In for $300, out for just over $2k
My Stack actually got smaller as I ended up with 3 $500 chips in my stack after making change for other players. I don’t know why they hate having having playable stacks on the table. There isn’t a hand played that change isn’t being made multiple times.

I would suffer through a lot of change-making if it meant that sort of profit

I do!!! The action is incredible. I wasn’t even the biggest winner. One guy had the night of his life, he never lost a hand at showdown, all night. He was in for $300 as well and cashed out just north of $4k!!!
He had never won at the game before, he had a set or full house almost every hand.

I didn't know @detroitdad was traveling that far for home games nowadays...
This was your mandatory rebuy game?
Yes it was. There was a little over $12k in play and one guy had 1/3 of it!
