Calling Navid's bluff. He's got a Joker in hand.



FLL medals don't count for FRC poker games.

I fold too. Nobody'd bluff with that.

Sort of. Everyone who was playing were FRC folk, but we didn't have enough variety with just FRC medals alone to get a decent chip count. If you are interested:

Spoiler for Our Currency Values:

FLL Food Factor Medals (Orange) = 1
FTC Winner and FRC Engineering Inspiration Medals (Red) = 5
FRC Winner Medals (Blue) = 25
FLL Senior Solution Medals (Silver)= 50

I don't think I can even afford the buy-in at your table...

Navid, I cant go into details...but you have no idea what was the cost to get that trophy on my kitchen table....but I can assure it was worth every cent and I would do it again without hesitation. Peace my friends. I wish you all can experience the joy of watching your team achieve the Holy Grail of First Robotics. Good luck to all teams and mentors in the 2015 season.

The cost of the trophy was minor compared to the other costs, and I do not mean monetary. Cheers all.
