Anyone score poker stuff on the holidays? |

Santa thought I should improve my game so he dropped SuperSystem 2 off at my place. What a guy.
The local pool hall mailed me a coupon for a free hour of pool too.

The only thing I am unsure of on these chips are the gray edge spots on the yellow chips, don't look that good to me. Should have used colors that stand out better.

I exaggerated it to the point where I had problems to buy any x-mas gifts for anybody else. Shame on me. I'm so freakin dead if my girl finds out how much money I spend on chips. LOL. I'm an addict.

Yeah right. not to forget the 500 pc composite chip set. Not really worth mentioning, I just liked the design. And I thought 40 Dollars incl shipping was a good deal.

They should put a warning on these things......
How much were the Desperados? They're very nice.
The casino collection is awesome. I have some of the chips included there.
For the composite set, I think $40 is reasonable. They're attractive chips for composites.
If you need to unload the Desperados or the casino collection let me know.
Hey, 400th post. W00T

The 400 Desperados were about 480 Dollars. I know thats not cheap but I didn't find anybody else who still sells them and I really like the chips. It had to be them, so the price worked for me. The retailer normally sells them piece by piece and takes about 2.20 per chip. There was no way we could meet at a lower price. It was hard enough to work out this deal.
help my english: by unload you mean sell, right? I don't think so. I won't give away those Desperados for sure. but I can try to get the same deal again. Not sure if the retailer got enough left though.
But I won't keep the whole casino chip collection. They should arrive within the next week or so. haven't seen em jet. The pictures are the pictures from the auction.
Where are You located?

I really like the Nexgens as they are really nice with custom labels. I also like my labeled Faux's also. Really wanted Yellow Faux's for Christmas''' Oh well someday..

If You're interested in the Desperados I can contact the retailer again.
But I guess they are to expensive. You would probably have to add another 60 USD or so for shipping

Yea, it wouldn't be worth it.
SuperSystem 2 is a book witten by Doyle Brunson and a hand full of other top pros, covering several games such as Omaha, O 8s or Better, Stud, Tripple Draw, Hold'em, and NL Hold'em.
