| | Why do you have all those crappy chips? The only one that comes in at the "official" weight is the Dice chip! 
Nice job Capt, thanks for the great info! |

| | | Great list! Is it too geeky to consider placing this information somewhere "sticky" on the site? It'd be nice to eventually have a comprehensive chart that includes chip thickness, diameter, friction coefficient, material density, moisture content, molecular composition, etc. etc. |

| | Agreed! A table like that one and similar postings of that nature, like http://www.texasholdem-poker.com/for...791&highlight= should be placed in an archive, reference forum, or sticky someplace. Quote: |

| | | Great resource Capt! Can I make 2 suggestions:
1. Add a column for 'chips weighed/averaged' so we know if the measurement is based on 1 chip or averaged across 5/10/1000.
2. Let's sticky this someplace and add to it until it's a massive list worty of the 'Poker Tools' tab on the main menu. |
