IMHO, I would someday love to see a cash set group buy, this most likely is not the group buy where that happens. It seems like every group buy set has to have the standard 5, 25, 100, 500, 1000 chip denoms. I would love to see a group buy set that consists of 0.10, 0.25, 0.50, 1, 2.50, 5, 10, 20. I would like that set to have mutiple edge spots with multiple colors, nothing with minimal edge spots nor pure solids. 90% of the people I play poker with prefer a cash game (0.25/0.50 NLHE, the 0.50 chip gets a ton of use), they prefer having several denoms, they don't like very many 0.25 chips and they like colorful chips ( don't like pure solids). We use my NJ Desert Sands set (0.25, 0.50, 1, 5) 99% of the time. Everyone likes the colors and the denoms. A $2.50 & $10 chip would go great with that set. I hope someday a group buy would take place for a colorful cash set. Something similar to this or the Horseshoe set that is different than what is currently available. I'm off my soapbox.

I'd interested in 400 or so of these, but I'd like to see them in photos and/or samples before committing if that's possible. Sorry if this has been addressed and I missed it....
If no samples are available, what will these chips compare to? Normal NJ ceramics (Skulls, Desert Sands)? |

Despite the great options coming out and the really great prices, I already have two tournament sets... And my cash set I was forced to pluck out of a tournament set with mirco denoms on the low end (sortof an afterthought add on).
Someone design a great chip set for a cash game... 10c, 25c, 50c, $1, $2.50 ($2? $3?), $5 and $20. Maybe a $100 too. Do this and yoru design will sell.

Maybe I'm just stupid, but can someone please explain to me the purpose of having 10c, 25c, 50c, $1, $2, $2.50, $3, $5, $10, $20, and $25 denominations? I mean, is it just so that you can have 29347293874 different color chips on the table or what? I can understand 10c, 25c, $1, $5, $25... and $2.50 if you play blackjack in your home games. Otherwise, it's just stupid. Especially 50c, $10 and $20 chips... what purpose could they possibly serve? |
