Re: What's the most expensive chipset you've played a full home game with

Used to play with starbursts and St Jo $100's for tourneys.
Then switched to an uncirculated (until I got them) Caesars NCV tourney set.
All Paulsons, all around 80 cents on average.



I also have a cash set of Grand Casinos that I have never used. Same price range.


I'm in the under $500 range.

Unused chips NEED hand oils and little dings before they become beautiful.

Re: What's the most expensive chipset you've played a full home game with

I have retired casino paulsons. I only have 600 of the planned 1000 so far. If I ever get the additional 400 I guess I'd be in the $1000+ category too.

Those don't leave the house

Re: What's the most expensive chipset you've played a full home game with

I've got a lot of Samurais. In a given single-table tourney, probably $600-700 worth of chips on the table (including those used for colour-ups)... but we usually play a (short) tourney followed by a cash game (more, lower-valued Samurais), so altogether, getting close to that $1000 mark in a given poker night. Strangely, that's more than the amount of money we're usually playing for... Is that bad?

I thought half the fun of having good chips is playing nickle/dime poker with chips worth at least a buck each....

After reading/contributing to the "guns at the poker table" thread:
If my poker game ever gets robbed, they can have the money. Just, don't take the chips!!

You need to add a spot for 2000+ on the poll. I have three sets worthy of that one

Re: What's the most expensive chipset you've played a full home game with

...for total volume & $, I'm sure the Pharaohs + 150 Plaques (yeah, I know the plaques are technically Egyptians). I think it cost me $500 total -- that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

25 -- it's all smoke and mirrors. I claim the 5th

Under the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, you can't be compelled to testify against yourself or incriminate yourself. This means you don't have to answer any questions that you feel might do this, nor are you obligated to explain why you think your answers would incriminate you. Under 26 U.S.C. §7604, a federal court can compel you to appear at a summons or deposition if you live in the federal zone (which most people don’t), but they can’t compel you to answer questions or incriminate yourself. Therefore, if you are either summonsed, depositioned, or examined by the IRS, the following guidelines apply to protect your rights and your privacy and keep you out of trouble:
1.DO NOT admit to the existence of any records to ANYONE! You waive your right not to produce them if the IRS knows about the records and they can compel you to provide them! See Fisher v. United States, 425 U.S. 391 (1976) or U.S. v. Doe, 465 U.S. 605 (1984). If the act of making or keeping the records in the first place was compelled and you make this clear, then you don’t have to give them the records because this violates the 5th Amendment.
