    The story of ESPN Tilt chips (as best I know it)

    The company that made the chips is long gone (Blue Chip Company). I have seen some china clays that look kind of close though. A while back I asked Gear if they could re-produce the labels, but they respectfully declined due to possible copyright issues.

    SOLD Majestics Set

    Interested, but that is a lot of $5's. Don't need that many.. let me know if you're interested in a split - would love to take all the rest and maybe 200 of the 5's. :)

    1200 NEXGEN Super Bees

    If you're looking for top-of-the-line labels, you're better off having them professionally done. But for a cheap do-in-yourself option take a look at http://chipcustomizer.com/ You can use the 1" labels (and I think 1.2") from https://www.onlinelabels.com/ Skip the waterproof labels, they...

    The story of ESPN Tilt chips (as best I know it)

    Thanks for the heads up - I fixed the post. Actually, I thinking of selling them off... I need to pay down some debt as we are looking at moving into a new house. Have someone local interested, just not sure what their value is these days...

    My blank Majestic’s have arrived

    I finally placed the order after returning from vacation last week. Many thanks to those who helped me select the denominations and counts, and corrected my misuse of the terms custom vs. re-label. I ordered these on Monday, and received a shipping confirmation notice on Wednesday that...

    About to order a custom set with these denominations... thoughts?

    No slow-roll was intended. Sorry my minor-league purchase doesn't stack up.... Appreciate the info on the breakdowns. GREAT information here, and saved me from making the wrong purchase for sure.

    About to order a custom set with these denominations... thoughts?

    Appreciate the perspective on my misuse the 5k chip for a 10k tourney that I hadn’t considered. I was looking at the numbers from a sheer mathematical perspective, and not thinking about how it would actually play out at the table. Thank you for correcting my thinking there! Perhaps another...

    The story of ESPN Tilt chips (as best I know it)

    I was asked in another thread about the ESPN Tilt chips I mentioned, so I started this thread to keep that one on topic. :) The Colorado Casino was the fictional hotel where the “World Championships” were played in the ESPN miniseries “Tilt” which ran in 2005. ESPN had an option for a second...

    About to order a custom set with these denominations... thoughts?

    Based on the awesome feedback here I have decided to drop the $5 and the 1k tourneys for this set. If I REALLY NEED to go that low I’ll pull out my Dunes chips for that session. BTW, for those who haven’t seen this check it out, it is an AWESOME tool...

    About to order a custom set with these denominations... thoughts?

    I have a large set of Dunes Commemoratives that I like to use for charity tourneys of up to 40 people. This new set is for my single-table homegames, probably never going to leave my house. :) I can also mix in my BCC Colorado Casino chips if I need to add a second table, although I don't see...

    About to order a custom set with these denominations... thoughts?

    I am about to pull the trigger and order my custom chip set. Have enough $$ in the PayPal account to cover me and have a 1000 chip carrier and racks ready to filled. The past few days I’ve been trying to determine the breakout I should get, there a lot to consider! Here is what I’m...

    Seeking Alpha Social Club - Heading to the WSOP Main Event!!

    I wish I had seen this sooner. Assuming that is you in the grandstands a few posts back on Day 1C, I was probably standing about 20 feet from you. Seriously. I was wearing a black hockey jersey with the "Black Aces" on it. It was funny when I got home and watched the footage to see myself...

    Poker Mavens

    Does anyone have experience with Poker Mavens? A buddy and I are looking to get up a private online-game with a couple of tables, and this seems like a great alternative to home games on PokerStars. But with a $100 purchase (we need multiple tables) I'd like to get some feedback on how well...

    Not Mine WSOP Replicas

    I just received a sample set of these. Compared to pictures of the real chips I see the labels appear to be a bit fuzzy and digits of the denominations oversized. I've never had one of the real chips in my hand, I'm just going off the pictures I can find. YMMV, but I don't think they are...

    Not Mine WSOP Replicas

    Wish I could get that label though. Even though it wouldn't be an exact match for the real thing, I bet it would look awesome on a set of Majestics for home game use. Makes me wish I was a graphics designer and not a software developer. lol

    WSOP China Clays

    Count me in! I saw these on eBay, first thought was I liked them. Second thought was the price + shipping from the UK was a bit steep. I ordered a sample set, so we'll see...

    Oiling 1000 Milano's

    I ran in to a chip consistency problem recently... Have a bunch of Monte Carlo chips, don't know why I had such a odd grouping of them but I found that I only needed 50 more to make a good 500-set that I could sell off. The local shop was closed for spring break so I ordered some online -...
