    Table Top (for hiding poker table): what designs are there?

    Thread necro, probably off-topic, and holy hell it's been a minute since I've been on, but: sir, that TTRPG table topper setup you have going is incredible. :wow:

    Not Mine Unusable mix of cool H-mold chips

    Back in the poker boom days when every bro had a dice chip set on their shelf, we used to run into the impromptu 11-man $20, winner-take-all ring game where there were 7 colors of dice chips, but of course, "Why not make 'em all worth 1???" Well, genius, there are 200 chips here. We're in for...

    Could use a dealer button or two... Edit: And now I realize I should have ordered one with my original purchase. :banghead:

    I just spoke with ABC and they’re making the Royal labels for sure. Get in touch with them to set up an order they should be ready for it now.

    Gutshot reaction: they are the best China Clay on the market in every single category. Color: probably the most brilliant examples of CCs yet. I haven't handled CPS, but maybe those are the second most brilliant (just speculating, would need expert input here). Followed by the 2017 Dunes CC...

    43mm Project Discussion

    I got some unboxing shots, but the lighting sucked for my first round. I think by Thursday I'll have some good photos to share.

    Majestic CC pRon

    My original take on the Majestics was that I wasn't totally impressed by them. Over time, I grew to really enjoy their nuances and the origin story. Having just participated in the Royal set pre-buy (you might consider them the spiritual successor to the Majestics), I can really appreciate the...

    @Apache is as solid as they come when he does PCF group-designed bulk buys and production. Responsive, thorough, and fair. We’re in good shape here. These chips appear to be one of the best examples of china clays produced yet, and it’s awesome we had a hand in helping make them to reality.

    Video Games?

    Not sure if it's available in your region, but the AoE II HD Remake on Steam is a fantastic technical modernization of the classic that includes a couple of new civilizations as well.

    China clay vs plastic Dunes

    Brybelly's from Amazon fit the Dunes CCs pretty well. It's about 1/8th of a chip wiggle, if that's a big deal to you. I have a one-off Brybelly rack with a cover that fits them slightly better. These were from the original Dunes CC run by Apache a couple years ago so keep that in mind. Later...

    The correct use of MINT in describing chips

    Then are you like the person I described or are you selling legitimate, as-advertised merchandise intended for customization and using the proceeds for good and uplifting causes?

    The correct use of MINT in describing chips

    My favorite is when people are shilling some half baked ugly hot stamp set with who-knows-whose initials on it or a completely moronic numbering system and the best they can say is, “Who doesn’t want some fresh ‘minty’ Paulsons for their new player friend????!!” Sure. Like the spurious claim...

    PerthMike's 2019 Vegas Trip Report

    Paella at Jaleo. The secret of Secret Pizza is that it’s okay pizza for thrice the price of a normal slice. 50/50 is actually pretty decent at Aria on strip. I live in NYC, so trust me on this for a moment. But, if you ever feel like you want to explore the East Village/SoHo of NYC without...
