Lee is great! You should see if you can squeeze any of his remaining OG Jerry Nuggets out of him lolJocu wrote: ↑Sat Dec 16, 2023 3:06 pm I had a wonderful conversation with Lee Asher yesterday and it just made me want to go to 52+J even more than before.
We'll definitely be making the trip over as soon as we can find a way to pull it off, but I'd definitely recommend it to everyone here. If the regulars there know half as much about playing cards as Lee does and have half as much passion you'll be among the best and most interesting folks there are in the business!
Definitely reach out to him if you have any questions. I'm really stoked about going one day.
Yes, at least some people show up with hundreds of decks
You should, Paul! Everyone is provided with a long table to display whatever they bring to the convention to sell, trade or show off and a lot of people drive so that they can bring more. I have seen people wheeling in multiple large plastic bins/tubs full of decks and I fill my suitcases (both check-in and carry on) to the brim with cases to sell (at a nice discount to members).
Good to see you around, Tom! I'm trying to sell my partner on the fact that there are casinos over there heheMagikFingerz wrote: ↑Tue Dec 19, 2023 1:17 pm Isn't Niagara Falls something of a romantic couples' destination? Could I market a trip there that way to my partner?

I believe Niagra Falls is where they go on their honeymoon at the end of Hard Eight.

Just an FYI, for those of you thinking to bring spouses, girlfriends, boyfriends, etc.MagikFingerz wrote: ↑Tue Dec 19, 2023 1:17 pm Isn't Niagara Falls something of a romantic couples' destination? Could I market a trip there that way to my partner?
It will be my first convention as well. Looking forward to meeting you in person Jamie, as well as the rest who are able to make it!
Question: what is the room rate? I'm thinking of booking this soon.
We are proud to announce the first three speakers for this year's 52 Plus Joker convention, which will be held in Niagara Falls, New York, from October 2nd to 6th, 2024.
