Haven't seen official 11.5g casino quality chips like this before. http://www.5stardeal.com/expand.asp?...221&subcat=114 |

Case is nice enough, but I don't like the chip labels, "Best Hand, 2nd Best Hand etc". Sure those are the top hands preflop, but they aren't after that. |

Hhhhmmm, I wonder what effect they would have on the guys in my regular game.

Those look like the same chips as the Daniel Negreanu Stacked chips, but with different inlays/stickers. |

Seemed to me that they have the inlays backwards --- why is the best hand on the lowest denom chip? (OK, so they're non-denom chips, but they still seem like the order is backwards...)
Also, the black/white chips is too easy to confuse with the white/black chip.

Except for the case, seem kind of expensive. They are still 11.5g chips. |

Hey, that's not a bad looking chip. If you disregard the label, the chips almost resembles the design on some of the Bud Jones chips (like the WSOP NCV chips.) While I'd be interested in hearing more about these, the fact that they're in a Trademark branded box kind of gives me the impression that it's something that you'll like find at your local Sportsmart/Sports Authority store, and not fit for chipheads.

No matter how you wrap em up, they are still budget chips (albeit, nicer than my dice chips). I wonder if these will make an appearance in the local Walmart. Nice case though.

I don't know, these seem pretty terrible to me.
Look at the centering issues on the wrap:  |

Am I correct in thinking that AK is better than QQ preflop in a full ten-handed game? I think the advice on those chips is misleading. |
