on 2/4/2009 This is a great way to start a little Home Poker Tourney. Unfortunately people just don't realize how fun and exciting these Poker Events really are. You can even set one of these up with two Poker Tables. One for the serious players and a learning table for those just getting started. Kudos great 5star prose!

on 11/22/2005 If you're worried about cheaters or you just want to spruce up your dull chips, a good and inexpensive way to do this is to purchase some labels. We bought ours from Slam Dunk Labels. The labels were cheap and easy to work with.
