I have attached pictures of the tables I use. I can also custom make table covers to suit the client or the charity we are using them for. But customer layouts get expensive. I am searching for a lower cost alternative. Please post it if you find anything.<\/p>\n<p>\tThis is a picture of the one I designed for my tables. <br \/>\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i61.tinypic.com\/2qnv9jb.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\tThis is a 9&#8217;ft table, with saddle colored armrests, and a custom layout that I designed.The whole thing cost me about $350, it is made in LA by a company that does a lot of casino tables. <a href=\"http:\/\/usagamingsupply.com\/\">http:\/\/usagamingsupply.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\tI deal a lot of poker tournaments, in my opinion, the artificial felt is the best. I don&#8217;t like &quot;speed cloth&quot;, or the older felt products. The new stuff is just as fast as speed cloth but not bland. To me Speed Cloth reminds me of dingy back room card games. Maybe because they use to use it when Binions still ran the WSOP and in their poker room. And of course don penny pinch on good cards. We use copag&#8217;s because of the cost to longevity ratio. But Kem&#8217;s have beutiful colors as do Gemaco and Mondial. You also have to choose between &quot;poker size&quot; and &quot;Bridge size&quot;. Casinos use &quot;bridge size&quot; they are a little less expensive because they are narrower. They are also easier for dealers to handle. But I like Poker size for a home game.<br \/>\n\tI buy my cards from Spinettis when i go to Vegas, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.spinettisgaming.com\/home.php\">http:\/\/www.spinettisgaming.com\/home.php<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>\tI also did a quick cursory search for custom poker layouts, there are many to choose from. As I said, the new process of dye sublimation has gotten the price way down and the quality to incredibly high levels.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am helping a friend build a poker table and looking for some help on what material to use as a covering and where to buy it.
