Has anyone done a design for the Aria tournament chips they use for the Poker Go tournaments? As popular as these tournaments are, I feel like it could be a neat group buy opportunity. I wouldn't even know where to begin to design them but thry dont seem to complex and with them being BJ's, ceramics would be a nice alternative. Instead of the BJ print on the label like the authentics. Maybe have it be 'PCF'? I believe these tournaments begin with a T500 base and go up to the 100k denomination. I don't have a good picture of the 100k but it looks orange and black from what I've seen.

Would any one be interested in this?

Thanks! I spent the last couple hours making this! Would be great on the textured no-mold chips. Will see if we can make it happen.

I've always thought these would be a great opportunity with the no mold ceramic route to get something very similar to the real thing at good prices as this is almost impossible with a Paulson replica.
 
Nice post. Not looking for chips but appreciate the info. Do you know what the chip breakdown is for starting stacks?

Maybe we can add in a Black T100 as well?

T500 is only used in the first 2 level in the Aria. Blind level, T100 format will be more popular as well

Also, nice work

According to structure sheet they are used through level six of all the poker go cup NLHE events.

According to the structure sheet, 125k for $10-15K buys ins and then up to 200k for the $50k buy in. The structure sheet from the OP has the starting stacks on the far right of the top spreadsheet.

Correct, looking for the chip breakdown in that starting stack

E.g. 125k

10 x 500
20 x 1000
20 x 5000
 
If you guys want a T100 or even T25 I'm glad to create it. Since these are non-traditional colors (as far as I know) I'll take suggestions for chip and spot colors for both denoms...

I know they have them. I can find some pics. I believe they are used for smaller tournaments at Aria.
 
Found this color chart under tools too. The originals are S2s I believe.

My guesses:

500 - Baby blue and gold
1K - Red and flesh
5K - Ocean blue and light pink
25K - Violet and steel Grey
100K - Cantaloupe and black

Thanks! If I have these made on textured no-mold chips from Tina, I wouldn't have to use the exact Bud Jones colors. I'm picking colors that Tina would hopefully be able to reproduce.

Here's what I have with the T25 and T100 added:

Love them, do they have to have the 's in Aria?

Tina won't have a problem with reproducing it without the 's but in keeping with not wanting to make an exact replica (though I don't have the Bud Jones "BJ" logo/letters on there, nor do I have the TM trademark under the Aria symbol, so it's not an exact replica), I decided to put the 's like the cards mold version of the Aria cash chips.

I don't have a super strong feeling one way or another, but I'll see if any group buy organizers who might want to offer this has any opinions on this.

I'd you can/do remove the 's, what do you think about putting PCF where the BJ would go? I like the idea of paying respect to the reason why we're are able to do this....

Look great
But the problem it’s the material
Tina can’t compete with the pleasure of BJ
Maybe Abbiati,Matsui or SunFly

Of course, these will be totally different on Tina ceramics than with high-end plastics. But at ~33¢/chip for no-mold textured, they're more affordable.

SunFly's ceramic hybrids do look and feel very close to plastics (to me).

33 cents a chip sounds great. I would be willing to pay more if there is an alternative that is better assuming it isn't so much more that it pushes away potential buyers from making all of this happen.

I'm not sure Tommy would want PCF directly associated with a copy/tribute of a casino design, particularly one that's still operating.

How about this design, where I took the 's off the name but removed the location and added "Commemorative"?

I know @Josh Kifer did "Comemorative Edition" on his Cactus Pete tributes, since Cactus Pete is still operational. Might be a good compromise...
