Chips: 12,507 | | | What should I buy next? I am in the market for a new set of clay chips to use as an alternative to my Trademark Paulson's. There are several options to choose from and each has its pluses and minuses.
Here they are:
National Poker Series: they are Paulson's but use the same mold and colors as the Trademarks I already have.
Desert Palms: lots of denominations to choose from and $0.85 per chip if I order in the next week, but the most inlay inconsistencies of any of the samples I am looking over.
High Rollers: great inlays and edge-spots but the most expensive of my current options.
Mardi Gras Casino's: great mold and price, but my least favorite inlay of the chips I am considering.
Papazoids still up in the air Paulson's: new mold, great edge-spots but no clue as to how much they will cost and when I would be able to get them.
So there are my options, so please let me know what you think.

Chips: 101 | | | Re: What should I buy next? I would take the Mardi Gras but as you don't like the graphic, then the Papazoids would the choice. The Nationals might be ok but I wouldn't want the same mold. |

Chips: 1,828 | | | Re: What should I buy next? If it happens, no doubt about it, papazoids. Then Nationals. I would only buy the High Rollers if it was lower than all other Paulsons. |

In the meantime, I like the used Paulson classic chips Nevada Jack has from the Ambassador casino in PR. The used sets are reasonably priced, if the configuration would fit your needs. http://www.nevadajacks.net/mall/paulson_ambassador.htm |

They are very nice chips though.
