Hello from Germany – Collector since Casino Royale (2 Viewers)

[GerChipCollector]

Hi everyone,

I got into poker after watching Casino Royale and soon discovered a passion for poker chips. In the following two years I imported chips from Asia and the US to Germany and traded Desert Palms Pure Clay Chips with other collectors.

For my own collection I purchased a lot of samples Sets, a large original Blue Chip Company Desert Palms set and later a big Top Hat & Cane set with Plaques, which remain the highlights of my collection.

Here in Germany there isn’t much high-level exchange about poker chips, so I joined PCF to connect with other collectors, share interests and enjoy the amazing photos and collections here.

Glad to be part of the community!

Best regards,
GerChipCollector

Yes, sure! These are my THC – a big set that I really love. The plaques have such a nice touch and sound. I think most of you know THC well.
I bought them almost 20 years ago and have only admired them since
Out of around twenty sample sets I ordered back then, the THC were the most appealing choice for me. I also considered getting a custom set for a long time, but I didn’t have the money at the time and postponed the order – and then it was no longer possible to order through Apache
That’s also one of the reasons I joined here – I’d like to see if it’s still possible to have a high-quality clay custom set made.

These are my playing chips. As hard as it is, I’ve never played with the THC – I only admired them
For poker nights we use the Blue Chip Company Desert Palms. I think they’re amazing too and they give such a great feeling at the table.
You now them?

Do you have a favorite set or mold? Always interesting to hear what long-time collectors enjoy most.

Not yet, I’m new to the chip game, more of a long time bad poker player.

I haven’t seen those desert palms before, really cool design and colors. That WTHC setup looks awesome!

I have 3 separate ‘nice’ sets, and a couple of cheapo sets. I don’t have a preference yet, trying to rotate my different sets.

And a BG IPS limit set (not my pic):

GL and welcome again
