Try again.

Nahh.
Good. You’re not adding anything to the conversation anyway.

Well that's a negative - but what I said first time round went over your head, so.....

42 was not the answer.

Got a couple tables in the basement, one I made, one I won.. Played a lot of hold'em and all the games really, good friend of mine has multiple WSOP rings, finished 13th I think in the main event the year Chris Moneymaker won it.. Dutch Boyd is his name.

Lets see a pic of the homemade table- At one time I had plans for a full table with hole card cams that would have been broadcast to a monitor over in my bar area, so my knocked out buddies had something to laugh at.

Pretty basic build, just cut a piece of plywood to size, added legs, added padding, the stretched and stapled an actual Trump Casino craps table overlay I bought off Ebay. The rail is made to fit snug over the table. It has held up for close to 20 years, sorta surprising really. I keep it covered when not playing, sits 8 comfortably, can squeeze 9 or 10 if needed but it is snug.

 :cheers: Nice looking table. Use to play a bit of poker BITD. Been wanting to build a table since then, even though I would be using it for tabletop gaming more than poker these days. Just don't have the real estate these days.

Oh yeah, there's this as well. Not available to everyone, but if wanting a Lot of them, they might oblige.

 Finally got around to looking at the sticks closer, and changed the shafts to the 'tron ones, actually it makes more of a difference than I thought it would.


FYI- the seller said they were like new- Honestly, they are, no signs of ever being used. If anyone wants to ask him what's left here he is. I got a package deal 4 for$110 shipped, (he's selling them in pairs, which isn't too clear) for NEW, dusty Wicos, I'm happy :applaud:
