Nice chips everyone.

Snappers are pretty cool, from their unique monetary value to their bright colors.

Anyone every see another chips that has non-integer value over $1?

I saw a $7.50 chip once and can't recall where. Am searching now.

i believe that, because it would be a great help to give a chip for the $5 invervals. instead of cheque out the tray a $2.50 and a $5 on the 2to3 blackjacks on the $5's. i think all casino's should start doing that and cut the snappers out. plus casino's would love that, because the dealers will pay out quicker and that means more hands within the hour, meaning more money for the casino.

Place-holder for my one-and-only snapper... I'm actually surprised nobody has posted it yet. I thought it was relatively common. I'll take a pic tonight or tomorrow.

It's funny that the POKER Palace is the only place that has such an unusual chip that is so obviously useful for BlackJack.


Now I'm wondering if anybody here has made a custom set with odd denoms (like $3, $15, etc.) based on the unique betting patterns of their home game players.

I'm not sure and actually doubt whether this is the only $7.50 chip available. Also - even though the name of the place is The Poker Palace, this is definitely a blackjack chip - look at the name of it 'Blackjack for the Millennium'.

ahhh, it doesnt matter, lets just love the denomination. once i have a blackjack table in my house, im gonna customize a 7.50 chip, thanks for the post. the 7.50 is a good idea.

the poker room at the Poker Palace is actually pretty small. I think there were 4 or 6 tables when I was there.
