It's been a pretty good week for my custom chip usage
We had a "big" tournament this weekend, and ended up with most of the chips in play at some point. I was even colouring up some of the T500 chips near the end of it, and had a lot of my T5000 chips on the table! It's not too often that we get up that far in the blinds or have enough people/total chips to really have them being useful.
And we had a good sized cash game last night. All of my nickels and all of the quarters were on the table (160 of each), along with at least half of the dollars (I have 120 of those). We only play a .05/.10 NL cash game right now, so that's a nice bit of money in play. With probably 5-8 players during the night. At the start I said "Well, I'm buying in for $10 instead of $5, I don't care what the rest of you do" ... and then they all did
I had no cards at all near the beginning, don't think I won a single hand with my first buyin. Was down to probably half of my second buyin and then started getting good cards and good luck. Cashed out at the end of the night with about $40, so I was happy about that
It was great to have stacks and stacks of chips in front of me by then. One of the guys might have pictures, I'll have to get them.
Mostly though, I think it was awesome that I had so many of my new chips in play this week. And everybody commented on them and loved playing with them!
