We will also go with a marble edge design for that smokey effect.
A bounty chip can add a fun element to your NLHE Tournament games. There are different ways to play with a bounty chip but generally, each player buys a bounty chip for the agreed upon value at the beginning of your game. If you bust out, the player who busted you out gets your bounty chip. When the tournament is completed, players can cash in their bounty chips for their buy-in value.
You may have seen a bounty style game on the WPT. During the BAY 101 Shooting Stars NLHE Tournament, select poker stars like Daniel Negraneu, Gus Hansen or Chris Moneymaker had a $5,000 bounty on them. When a player busted them out, they received $5,000 and an autographed T-shirt! How cool is that? How will you play with your bounty chips?
Pricing
I would like to group these chips by sets of ten. Ten chips will cost $11 plus shipping to you. Twenty chips will cost $22, thirty chips cost $33 and so on.
The $11 covers ten chips, shipping to me, and PayPal fees.
Shipping
Option 1 - Standard US Mail. A flat $2 per ten chips to cover a padded envelope
and 1st-class postage. If you want more than ten chips, use the Priority Mail option.
Option 2 - Priority Mail. A flat $4 for up to 8 sets of 10/set. This includes a delivery confirmation number. If you want more than 80 chips, PM me your zip code and I will calculate your shipping cost via
www.usps.com.
For Canada or other international addresses, PM me your address and quantity of chips and I will calculate your shipping via
www.usps.com
I will be using USPS, global priority flat rate envelopes for international orders if you want to calculate the cost yourself, sm envelope (for 10-20 chips), lg envelope (30-80 chips).
Payment
PayPal (preferred): Be sure to write your chiptalk userid in the message box when paying with PayPal. That way I will know who to list here as paid.
Money Orders: PM me for my address. Note that your order will not be considered paid until the money order is received. As with PayPal, note your chiptalk userid on the money order so that I know who you are.
Here are some examples of your total cost for US members:
-10 bounty chips by 1st class mail: $13
-10 bounty chips by Priority mail: $15
-20 bounty chips (use priority mail): $26
-30 bounty chips (use priority mail): $37
-All other quanitites, PM me with your zip code and I will reply with your total cost.
Once I receive enough payment for 500 chips, I will leave this GB open for another couple of days. Then the GB will close and I will submit the artwork to Nevada Jacks and issue payment. Nevada Jacks promises to ship the chips in a week or the shipping is free. When I receive the chips, I will try to ship them all out to you within a day or two so we can start playing with our new bounty chips!
If this group buy falls through, I will promptly pay back those who have paid me.
Thanks everyone!
