New guy

Hello Everyone

I have been lurking about for the last while and decided to sign up today.

I live just outside the Vancouver area and hold a poker game at my house with friends every so often.

I few months back I got feed up with playing with dice poker chips I bought from "The Supidstore" and decided to find some quality chips.

So far I am focusing on Paulson Pharaohs from a distributor out of Canada and slowly working on building up a set. Of course just as I start buying them they run out of stock on $1 chips. Doh.

After a couple of emails I find that they will be restocking in a few month but that leaves me tapping my toes waiting to use them in my home game.

I also picked up 100 JB BCC from CT via this thread and there in the mail to me now.

BCC James Bond, ASM Palmas Club many more

Regards

Steiner

Hi Steiner,

Welcome to the forum. There are a few chip experts here, so I am sure you will get along with some of the members just great. What games do you typically play in your homegames?

Steiner · Feb 26,2009, 02:28 PM

Just Texas Hold'em $20 to $50 buyin with unlimited rebuys. We keep it pretty friendly though.

I have had a couple in my group say they have had a hard time with other games so we keep it simple.

My guys really don't want to learn anything new once they are past their 2nd beer. The learning curve goes way down.

hahaha... all the more reason to play some other games

You can drink non-alcoholic beer, get them drunk and take their money

Steiner, welocme. You really need to talk to moose. Or at least search some of his pix. He's a "chipper", too, and has a sweet collection. I must avoid good chips lest I go nuts like I have for plastic cards.

Just wondering if you were Rick or Scott

Milo · Feb 26,2009, 09:56 PM

He's neither one. I know this because, to come here, he still has to have his balls.

Steiner · Feb 26,2009, 10:07 PM

I am starting to think that there is some sort of "inside joke" I am missing concerning my user name

Steiner

Graham · Feb 26,2009, 10:38 PM

I think there was some wrestling duo called with the last name Steiner... at least thats what I found when i googled.

Rrrriiiiigghhhttt. All natural . . . well, I guess HGH is a naturally produced substance in the human body. Just not at the levels found in his. Unless of course he eats babies.
