You guys talk game strategy, sports, and politics. But it gets better when you move to chatting card rooms and spot patterns.

Right. But I guess I’ve never talked about any of that stuff while playing cards…to be fair.

I just assumed other people do.

I talk mostly about meat, motorcycles and firearms….and sometimes strength training.

So, talking about chips and spot patterns is nice every once in a while.

The high chip prices around here of late are pretty ridiculous.

So I might move to Minneapolis.
Maybe open a daycare?

It was mainly aimed at the Minnesota connection in the news.

Requesting go-go-green permission to go weapons hot..."

Gauging by the reactions around here, I'd almost swear that half of this forum is autistic.

...the other half, Somali.

We are obsessed with colorful clay discs…

Very specific clay discs with specific color combinations and condition is important. Also, the location that the chips originated from may be a deal breaker, but we aren't too picky.

Sometimes A. Sometimes C.

Here's a controversial opinion - you custom cut card people (yes, I was sorely tempted to use another C word, instead of "people") are out of your damn minds. You can get cut cards for 50 cents apiece on amazon. And when they say "casino quality," it's actually true. Because those solid color cut cards are all I've ever seen at a casino.

It’s another fun thing to have I guess, but man the drama over them has been insane to witness.

A different way to think of it?

They’re like $1.

If a host is paying thousands and thousands for specific chips, chairs, animal balloon artist, table, felts, cup holders, magicians, hotdog roller, coffee nitro keg, urinals, etc., why wouldn't they spend $1-$2 for a custom, high quality standard cut card?

Sure. And make sure you cut a special slot in your earthquake proof chip case for them.

That's just silly. They go inside the card box of whichever high end cards people prefer which then goes into the earthquake proof case.

Dibs Magicians.

I would love for a meetup to have a kids party magician one time.

Petting zoo > magician/taco truck > balloon artist.

Somebody needs to ask ChatGPT if custom cut cards have any advantages over cheap cut cards.
No please don’t.

Ditto for chips.

I’ll save you time. The expensive ones stack better.

Always curious what it will spit out...lol

Feature	Stock Cut Card	Custom Cut Card
Grip	Low	High
Rigidity	Low–Medium	Medium–High
Stability on felt	Inconsistent	Excellent
Protection of bottom card	Adequate	Superior
Dealer efficiency	Average	Improved
Durability	Moderate	High

Does It Matter in Real Play?​

Yes — especially for:

• Poker rooms
• High-limit games
• Casinos
• Professional dealing environments

In home games it’s less critical, but once you deal with high-quality custom cut cards, stock ones feel cheap and slippery.

Wow gee, how insightful and helpful. I really love how it uses lots of words and font sizing and emojis to make the bullshit seem helpful.
