Last summer my two 8 year old boys got heavily into Pokémon TCG. What started as them learning to play at the kitchen table somehow turned into me falling down the collecting rabbit hole as well.
Since then I’ve probably spent what most would call a mini fortune on ETBs and singles toward my personal binder. I’ve enjoyed it, don’t get me wrong, but if I’m honest my pulls have been painfully average. A few £10 to £20 cards here and there, nothing I’d class as high value, and never one of my personal chase cards. It got to the point where I was half joking that I was just funding everyone else’s luck.
Well, today that changed.
I ripped a pack and it turned into a genuine, true to god pack. The kind you see posted and assume will never happen to you. Absolute unreal scenes in my house. The boys were going mad, I was just sat there in disbelief checking the cards over and over again.
After months of average luck, it finally happened.
Safe to say this one’s getting sleeved, top loaded and probably graded. Today was a good day.
