A Glimpse Inside the Goldfish Bowl - poker analysis, pr0n and random thoughts (13 Viewers)

[Goldfish]

why not build a set from chips you haven't used before? it appears that you have already SB 25c, SB $5, SB $500 & ESPT T100 in other sets.

are the SB chips coming from your SB set? are you no longer planning on keeping that together?

That’s the CA lineup. If you don’t like CA then back to the drawing board.

None of the above

Frac BTP $2
$1 Paris $1
$5 SB $5
$20 ESPT 100
$100 SB $100
$500 SB $500
$1000 SB T25000
$5000 RPC T500

This would work if you want to have 43mm start from $100 and up. Not sure what 39mm white chip would work here. RPC $1 or T100?

Repeating 8v!

if you are committed to using what you have on hand then you are either going to run into the issue of repeating base colour and or repeating spot pattern. Depending on one's level of OCD it will either be a problem or it won't.

Ultimately its your set so you do what works for you.

My own personal preference would be to avoid using a repeating base colour and spot pattern as well as any chip used in another set I already have so as to give the new set its own uniqueness.

Good luck with the build!

I will work on it, and see what other options I can come up with.

How about this line up?

 

[Goldfish]

Last option, I promise……blue .25c, white $1.

 

[RocAFella1]

Are you set on the SB $5 as your $5 and BTP $2 as your $25? The $500-5000 chips flow well but the low denoms don’t flow well imho.

 

[Goldfish]

Are you set on the SB $5 as your $5 and BTP $2 as your $25?

I was hoping to use them both, but I do have the ES 25s I could use as $25s. What are you thinking?

 

[RocAFella1]

I would use the SB $5 as a frac with maybe the ES $1 as a $1 and you’d have to use something else as your $5. ESPT 25 would slot nicely in as a $25.

This is my favorite option you’ve shown so far. Definitely like the Paris $1 demoted to a frac.

I agree with others that there’s some conflict between the SB $5 and BTP $2. TBH I think the BTP $2 is just an amazing chips so I’d like for a different $5

 

[RocAFella1]

I know you’re trying to make use of resources on hand but if you do the Paris $1 as a frac, I think there’s a lot of red options available for your $5. The BTP $2 is a cool chip but it having two spots makes it hard to integrate into a bright lineup with a lot of complex spots.

I know of the perfect red $5! Do it @Goldfish

agreed, I like the chip a lot, but only having 2 edge spots makes it tough to insert into this line up.

Ok, taking in all the comments about the proposed line ups above, I have gone out and found what I think is a great solution….. final answer (I am pretty sure.. haha). Let me know your thought….. good/bad.

 

[Goldfish]

What does one do with the most expensive chips purchased to date? Murder them of course……

I wonder - Is this considered cannibalism?
