i was about to say yes until i saw that it doubled as a dining room table. i don't need another dining room table.

It's a sweet looking table, but I don't like those raised edges. Wouldn't that make it hard for you to look at your cards?

Just play like Keian, hold your cards up high so everyone can see them.

Built in shuffler.... sweet.

usually it's easy to view your cards with padded felt. and typically ppl protect their cards when they look at them. although I do understand what you mean by the raised edge. I think it's designed so that cameras can be installed along there.

6000$ is somewhat pricey though, and having a dealer seat is useless for casual games.

[nature boy]

not if we hire some guy to deal all our games for us. we'll just tell him/her what game we want to play and he/she will deal it out for us.
now THAT would be ballin.

It would've been nice if the felt extended to the edge of the table as well. It's so friggen hard to lift your cards off of a hard flat surface.

you took the rake just fine last night.

i checked out the shuffler(http://www.shuffletech.com) that is built into the table. It is $500. I would rather chip in for one of these. Still seems a bit pricey for something that just mixes up card, maybe if someone can find one for $100 bucks. I think most the tables that we use now are fine: jai's, dave's or mine.

[nature boy]

i think everything we're doing now is fine....except for maybe the lack of chips at dave's house.
if anything, a better/longer table underneath the tabletops would help from people leaning on the edge and flipping the tabletop up (which i only think happened very few times anyway).

Dave has huge suitcase of chips!!! or was that comment meant sarcastically.

[jeSteR]

And he's also got a whole cupboard of potato chips too.... just so there's no confusion here.

i meant those nhl chips we played with for a few weeks. that was brutal.
