Just noticed the dude opposite you is crushing.

Taller stack doesn't mean crushing. Venturalvn has like $190 and across the table has only bout $140 visible.

 

[Nex]

He could even have a little less. His $1 stacks are higher but there's only about half. His $5 stack is noticeably smaller and his 25c probably add up to maybe $15.

Isn’t there at least 3 of those 1 stacks and possibly a 4th.

I don’t care about value. He has moaarrr chips hahaha that’s winning in my book.

This is chip collecting after all.

 

[Venturalvn]

I dumped about $100 to the guy across from me in the photo throughout the night. We ended up chopping the whole 6 player pool. Him for $320, me for $160. Both in for a single $40 buyin. Annoying He wouldn't let me win one hand against him...

Not sure what exactly his stacks were in that pic but he did have 3x $1 and 2x quarter stacks in that pic. He couldn't miss tonight. Hit with the deck when he was called. And all his calls with mid pair plus were good. The scotch helped him loosen, and he wasn't ever not good tonight.

 

[Venturalvn]

But yes, we DO get many chips on the table. I didn't buy these ASMs to short stack the boys!

By the looks of it, Bicycle Prestiges.

The font and design don't look like the Prestiges.

Our normal 25/25 cent game turned into. 50/1 after a few new players with deep pockets showed up. 6 handed game had over $3000 on the table.

In for $180 out for $585.

Do you use the same chips for cash and tourney ? When you start going over 1000$ on the table that is some risk.

Excellent point. We've used these mainly for cash but have used them for two tournaments. None have gone missing and I take inventory after each game. If one goes missing then I have a backup tournament set (CPS) and a back up cash set (CPC Montreaux).

We play with a pretty close knit group but of course we do occasionally let some lesser knowns play. I don't think any of those players would think of rat holing chips.

Keeping good inventory has been the key to success here, lol.

Some pics from our nickel/dime game tonight.

The crew. My son started with us, but had a marathon game of Civilization with his buddies on his mind, and lost $20 (2 buy-ins) in about 30 minutes, and was on his computer. I'm the guy behind the iPad. My friend on the end is a piano guy on Disney cruise ships. He's heading back to the boat soon, so we had to get one more game in. That's why wet playing on a Wednesday. The guy in the sling is undergoing treatment for a brain tumor, and was in a relatively minor accident on his motorcycle yesterday.

My Showdown chips in action. I need to get a table topper.

We got down to two. I was up to around $25 at one point, leaked back down to $10, then rallied in the last 30 minutes to get up to $41 and change, just over half the total on the table. We played two hands heads-up for fun. If a 9 or 4 came on the river, we would have shipped, with a very anticlimactic result!

Final hand

@Beakertwang what cards are those? Love the artwork on the backs.

Pretty sure those are KEM arrows. I lied, KEM Paisley.

KEM Paisley. Arrows look different.

KEM something-or-others, for sure. My wife bought them for me as a birthday present a few years back. I haven't really even looked at cards since.

Everybody really likes them. The other set is red.

How is that stuff? It used to be undrinkable. They changed the manufacturer a few years back but the first time I bought it I was so upset that I have never tried it again.

Think Miller Lite. Great when it's ice cold and it's hot out. Not too heavy. Doesn't have an awful aftertaste like PBR. Certainly no craft IPA but a good backyard/beach/social beer.

 

[bsdunbar1]

Burro’s are working so far tonight.

 

[bsdunbar1]

The old trusty Majestic's worked well also. Good night all around
In for $50, Out for $354

Finally got the NPS chips into action recently! Ended up with 8 players and, while the level of play was pretty low, it was still a fun time. First time hosting a home game with "real" chips... won't be going back to my dice chips anytime soon!

Next up, finding a nice table topper for my small euro apartment!

 

[Rhodeman77]

After being down almost all night, a couple huge hands changed all of that. Played until 4:15 this morning.

 

[justsomedude]

First time playing @podunkeric ’s!! Great setup and a great host.

And then I caught a boat, didn’t even realize it, and looked as if I was slow rolling the nuts. Talk about looking like a jerk.

Up a bit so far...
