I'm looking for cheap patio chairs and tables. I've looked at walmart.com and homedepot.com with no help. For the chairs, I'm looking for these type: http://www.dpent.ca/Images/21688.jpg or any model of those plastic chairs. For the tables, maybe something like http://www.globalindustrial.com/images/picgroup/3239tbltn.jpg or possibly http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000063SJ2.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

Where would you guys find these? How much would I be looking to pay for ~40 chairs and 5 tables? Any help appreciated.

Just go to any K-Mart/Wal-Mart/Target and they'll be sure to have these. The local hardware store might have some too. Probably not 40 of them, but they'll have some.

Does this mean the casino is about to be up and running?

It's gonna start up as a 2-3 tournaments a week. Maybe eventually turn into a cash game destination, not likely though. But I'm gonna do $20 buy in, getting 25% rake /images/graemlins/shocked.gif Still gonna advertise as a $20 though. But it's not all profits, as I have to pay for tables, etc and gonna provide food and drinks. But to answer the question, yes.

You need to let the guys up in home poker know about this, it is one of their favorite threads.

You should. Holy crap! Not that I'm in favor of charging a rake at all, but if you want $5 from each participant, you should be making it more like $50+5 or something. At least make it worthwhile.

Yeah, I'm looking into it. I think $18+$2 would not be very worthwhile for me maybe two tournaments a week with ~30 players. Right now $17+$3 makes the most sense to me, factoring in what I gotta buy, and including drinks and food, along with making it fair for the player. But I don't know we'll see.

I agree 75%. The tables are allowed to suck because I'll have Poker Table Top's, and those aren't too bad.
