Chips: 26,026 | | | Nice collection!
Even though it has no edge spots, I like that Golden Nugget chip.
J5
Note: not just because it's blue. |

Chips: 79 | | Nice Photos, Even though I like blue as opposed to white as a one dollar chip, I like that Harrah's chip a lot. (The Paulson one)
Hunterking, you live in Athens, I live in Dacula and grew up in Winder, about 15 mins from Athens. Good to have another GA boy on the board.  |

Chips: 242 | | Three things these pics make me realize/remember:
1. I changed my mind - I like the 7/8 inlay better than the 1 1/16"(with matching molds). The Harrah's, Nugget, and Horseshoe chips are great, especially with the circle.
2. Clear evidence why Paulson can tell us to stick our requests in our ear - I have a strong feeling that few or none of our demands for the Pharaoh's set will be met - they just have too much other "real" business to worry about(a shame - but a reality we might need to accept if we want the best).
3. I was right, $1 chips were meant to be white, especially for a poker set - were blue chips are $10.  |

One of my favorites is the $1 chip below.
BTW, these are available in any quantity you want -- they are the house chip in the Gulfport Grand poker room. Anybody want some, just let me know. (But the racks have a mix of new and crappy chips, so they're not all as perfect as the sample I culled shown above.) |
