Looking to upgrade (from dice chips)

I have a set of the 11.5 g dice chips but am looking to upgrade.

I want something more casino like for a small game of 6-7 guys.
Don't want to spend a fortune though.

suggestions?

Re: Looking to upgrade (from dice chips)

How much do you want to spend? Ultimately that's what it boils down to.

Set a price range and you can get some intelligent responses as you are already pretty much at the bottom of the scale (bicycle interlocking chips are slightly lower than dice chips).

I think no more than $150.

Re: Looking to upgrade (from dice chips)

Im pretty sure dice are the pinacle of the home gaming world. First of all, they sound superb splashing into the pot. Second, they are the OFFICIAL casino weight. Third, they are super unique. Noone really has them.

Sorry, couldnt resist. Im not really a nexgen fan, but those might work. If I were you, I would get some ceramics from NJ's or something. If you push your budget, you'll be happier in the end. (that is until you get hooked on this site and start purchasing a set for every day of the week.)

j/k of course

You are probably looking for a 300-400pc at most for 6-7 players. For $150, you are any real clay (aka compression molded) chips are probably out of reach unless you want only solid colors as they go for around .50ea. Ceramics (NJ Desert Sands and such) are probably as high up the chip food chain as you can go and even that would probably run you a bit more depending on the type and such.
  • 5stardeal.com Soprano's are good chips,
  • sidepot.com neophtyes are good chips,
  • 5stardeal faux clay dice chips are good,
  • nexgens are slightly above dice chips in my book but are easily customizable which is a big plus.

Re: Looking to upgrade (from dice chips)

I located those beauty chips, and although they are nice they won't work.

I forgot to specify that i want the chips to say how much they are worth on them.

Oops, forgot something

GET SAMPLES AND DECIDE FOR YOURSELF BEFORE BUYING A SET.

Re: Looking to upgrade (from dice chips)

There are some good deals out there from people who have NJ skulls from pso promotions and are selling them.
