Wow. I might be on an island, but there’s something about these that are very appealing to me. I guess when I see claw pattern chips, more often than not they look too busy or some of the colors clash or something. To me, these are simple but great.

Honestly, I don't hate these either. I'm just not a fan of identical spots across a set. Somewhere Identical spots will have a color-clash, unless they are black (black goes with everything). In the HR(T) tournament set, that blue on the brown looks like crud, and it devalues the whole set. That T500 is spot-on, and the T5000 is quite acceptable to me.

Maybe since they are NCV, they don't care if it looks like crap or not.

They are unique. I like them too.

Is it just me, or does it seem like the trend for Vegas singles is going toward a hot stamp RHC? I have recently seen Caesars, Flamingo and now Park MGM.

Pretty sure GPI are just trolling PCF at this point. They know what we hate, so actively recommend these options to casinos when they're looking to create new chips. Payback for all the NAGBs.

I can’t imagine the workers there don’t have a passion for chipping too. It’s gotta be the casinos bottom line and the casinos ignoring the total value of brand/marketing aspect of their chips. They just want CHEAP.

Is it just the photo, or does this chip have an unusual texture?

It does look a little unusual. @dmoney did you keep one of the new Bellagio $1's?

 

[bergs]

Those hotstamp $1s are the mehest of meh.

The BJ $25 and $100 I recognize as old, having held them for a short time before giving them back.

Way classier than the small inlay chips IMO.

This version of events is no fun though...

A little bit. Not so much texture as maybe a weird mix of the clay and heat compression mix?

 

[jja412]

It looks like they got a little too hot.
We had some chips that looked like that from the TMSC sale from BCC many years ago.

 

[Venturalvn]

Wasn't there something that said Paulson's current mix is up to 50% plastic? Or am I among that up?

Flamingos mix of clay chips and plastic chips has long been one of the most tilting racks in all of Las Vegas, if not the US as a whole.
