Originally from Wisconsin, I started playing cards at a very early age. It started at my grandparents table with M&Ms. There I learned not to underestimate my opponent and the dangers of slow playing a big hand. As I aged, the stakes also grew. Nickels and dimes around the neighborhood to then hosting a regular $1/ $2 game.

 

I love action, the live straddle, the pre-flop bet in the dark, and even betting red/black. Games were once played on card tables, kitchen tables and even a pool table until I decided to try building my own poker table. My first one was about as basic as could be. Burgundy felt and a black vinyl rail. No racetrack, no raised rail, but it's where I got the vision. From there I got more and more creative. Then regular players at the $1/ $2 game started asking about the table they were playing on and how they can get one. And an idea was born.

​

My ambition is to provide individuals and cardrooms across the country with our premium tables and someday have one of our tables on TV during a televised tournament or high stakes cash game.
