Chips: 49 | | | Re: anyone color blind? Stay away from getting both green and red chips and blue and black, one but not the other. They are discernable sideby side, but from across the table it can get difficult. Just get chips that contrast. like white red blue or yellow, green, black. And yes I'm colorblind.

Green and Blue are almost completely reverse. You see green grass, I see blue. You go on a green light, I go on a blue. You wear blue jeans, I wear green.
Blacks and Blues are also very hard to tell apart. Navy blue almost looks black to me. Lighter blues are green.
Your attached picture shows black, yellow, red and a few blue chips. |

I think I will go with black, yellow, and pink... if the pink doesnt work, i'll swap in another color. This guy will be stoked. He has crappy walmart chips and I am going to surprise him with a 500pc set for his soon to be 40th birthday.
