What's wrong with this picture?

I should be setting up for tomorrow's game now, but a close contact tested positive for COVID yesterday. Things are shut down another two weeks until I know I'm in the clear

10 days? You’re vaccinated buddy. Don’t suffer longer than you have to.

10 days? You’re vaccinated buddy. Don’t suffer longer than you have to.

That is correct. New isolation guidelines are ten days, but the game was rescheduled to 14 days after the initial date!

Riverboats were in play tonight. Chopped it to double my input of $15 to $30.

Are these Riverboats a CPC chip?

They are fantastic.

They are fantastic.

They're Blue Chip Company (BCC) chips. A sadly now defunct compression clay manufacturer. I'm part of a very small minority here that if given the choice, if I was offered custom Paulsons or custom BCC's on my choice of mold, I'd choose BCC's. Best feeling clay chips ever made, IMO.

I may be a bit excited for my first action on Saturday since my daughter was born...

 

[JMC9389]

Some stack and action shots from last night. Binked it after being behind or on life support for most of the game, but picking up AK twice in the same orbit, one for a double up got me back in the game and I surged after that to take it down.

Huge pot that a single pair of queens took down in just level 4

AJ shoved pre and called by pocket two's. Two hits on the flop and that's all she wrote for AJ

Big pot, full house >flush

Binked this three on the river for my tournament life

 

[JMC9389]

I just spent my night looking at the calendar and tentatively scheduling the next 18 months worth of games. I had to consider birthdays, holidays, @Irish 's games that I also love to attend, and my weekend coverage days at work.

How did you spend your Saturday night?

 

[Thomacetti]

This is really cool. Where can an Exit 109 guy with a son named Jack find a Table like this to buy?

 

[JMC9389]

This thread deserves an update. Lots has changed since the OP. Maybe if I have time tonight...

You can hire a designer and have a custom speed cloth or casino grade felt printed by @T_Chan here. Second to none!

He also builds excellent tables but his queue is months long. PM me and I can send you in the direction of who built my table, he's local!

I appreciate it! I’ll be looking for one after the holidays and I’ll ping you then.

 

[SC_NJ]

Is this table too heavy to carry? I have a large table that is two plywood sheets thick. It’s too hard to take it inside and back out for storage. I’m looking for something sturdy but somewhat portable.

 

[JMC9389]

Going to necro bump this thread. Things have happened since 2022. The CDI's, Jack Detroits, and pips mold solids are all gone and to new homes. Fortunately, 5 new sets have taken their place, and I've done add ons and right sized existing sets.

I'll try to throw together a compilation of what I have currently a bit later on, as well as what the future holds.

What? The CDIs are all gone? Did I get a piece of that? My memory is hazy....

The sunset yellow to midnight black on the plaques is a touch of brilliance! Awesome job on these Joe!

 

[JMC9389]

Almost. One more large CPC set to come. Going to add a rack or two to some existing sets, but beyond that, I think I'm just about there.

Thank you brother! Good to see you posting around here a bit more again.

Let me know when you're making your next trip south of the border. I'll make sure that I have a game together and I'll christen the Grimaud cards. It's simply not appropriate for any other occasion.
