Chips: 169 | | | Heads Up Poker Championship chips Does anyone have any better pictures of the chips they were using for the Heads-up US Poker Championship today on NBC.
I'm wondering what the logo looks like. I think the chips look great!
The only one I've found has been on the golden nugget site here.  |

Chips: 810 | | | I'm sure there paulson, probaly very similar to the fun ntes used in 2k4 US Poker Championships at the Taj mahal. I'm not sure where you can find any better pics, i guess you could check cardplayer-you will see who won and i doubt they will have any good chip pics, but may be worth the shot.
I really like those chips also, ever since the USPC I have really grown to like the no edge spot chips especizlly the orange and pink ones and even that green one is cool |

Chips: 84 | | | I don't have any pics, but I just wanted to comment on how much these chips are growing on me as well. They use the non-edge spot Paulsons (same as Fun Nite) for tournaments at Prairie Meadows in Des Moines, and they are very nice. They have the bright green, grey, purple, and bright orange for the tournaments. It'd be a fun set to have. |

Chips: 169 | | | I don't have a fancy screen capture thingy on my tivo, but I watched it last night and in between breaks they had a slowed down video of the chips. I'm guessing it was the same ones used in the tournament.
In middle it said "Golden Nugget" on two lines.
and I believe along the top, curved along the inlay, it said "No Cash Value".
And on the bottom, the "Golden Nugget" but at a smaller font, it has the demonination "1000".
I'm loving the bright solid colors and simple black inlays.
I actually took a really crappy picture of it with my digital camera so I could remember it (yes, looks like garbage). I can upload it tonight if people are interested. |

Probably just the standard chips the Nugget uses. |

Chips: 24 | | This is the best pic I could get from the broadcast. I apologize for the grainy quality -- my capture program's not the newest thing. If I get some time on Tuesday, I'll see what I can get out of it.
I don't know if you can tell from this pic, but I'm pretty sure I could see the trademark Paulson TH&C around the edge in other shots. I kind of like the Dayglo colors, and I found the combination of the low-key insert and no edge spots strangely appealing. I spotted the following denoms:
Black = 5000
Yellow = 1000
Green = 500
Pink = 100
Blue = ???
Never got a good look at any betting with the blues.  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
