39mm vs 44mn (2 Viewers)

[MrE]

I noticed there's different options for chip size, 38mm vs 44mn. Is there a casino standard or is one used more often than the other? Thanks in advance.

More like 39 vs 43mm (CPC oversized are 44mm though). 43mm when used are generally reserved for the higher denoms, usually $1k+

39's are the usual standard for most chips with some casinos using the bigger 43 for $1000 and up.

Some casinos use 43mm for their tournament chips.

A lot of us home players have found the joy of 43mms (especially with the rise of cheaper, high quality ceramics.) But 39mm is definitely the casino standard.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate it.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate it.

Also to add, Tina 43mm ceramics weigh the same as most Clay 39mm (Paulsons, CPC)

I think that's a big reason if its gonna be a Tina Chip I can't do 39mm

Maybe the different molds weigh differently?

Yeah they're no Dice chips 13g that's for sure LOL

Seriously tho 39mm Tinas feel light and cheap while the 43mm feels like a totally different chip
