Cali vs LV? (1 Viewer)

[justinatk02]

Hello everyone!

New member to the forum and I just now noticed that there is a different standard color for chips, and I have really fallen for the blue 1's and yellow 5's! I was wondering how the community feels about the Cali colors vs LV and if there is a general favorite!

You'll find lots of members love and own both types of sets. You will find some who have mixed between them, or slightly modified them. You will also see examples of non-standard colour sets.

Cali every day, for life!

Depends on the chips. But I do love a yellow $5 and white $100. Probably because I'm only ever exposed to the alternative.

Yup..

I was born and raised in California so I’m used to yellow 5’s and blue 1’s. I still prefer the Las Vegas color scheme though. It might be just a nostalgia thing when my family would take trips to Vegas and those were the chips my dad would show me in the hotel room.

I don’t have a preference but the Cali are more difficult to collect therefore have a special allure to them

I don’t know why white $1’s are considered Vegas style. Most of the Vegas $1’s I can think of are blue.

I don’t have a preference on the $5 chip, but I do prefer a blue $1, and a white $100.

 

[doublebooyah85]

Totally prefer blue $1^^^regardless of the $5

I don’t know why white $1’s are considered Vegas style.

Because of the original Vegas standard.

I prefer blue as well, but then I have a huge 'Cali' tattoo on my back.

To me, reds are fives and fives are red.

Standard white / red / green colors
represent the majority of sets on this site. Whether that’s due to preference or supply and demand? Probably some of each.

I like both but prefer Vegas color combos mostly. But don't care for White $1s, Blue $1s for the win either way

I think white was much more common in LV before the Wynn casinos (Bellagio, Mirage, Treasure Island, Wynn) started using blue. There were others, this really gave blue a boost.
I prefer the dark royal Paulson blue to some of the newer lighter shades.
I prefer LV colors a for all other chips, likely because I’m not used to Cali colors.

Thread needs a poll.

Vegas all the way.

Cali hipsters trying too hard to be different. White chips are $100? $1k bananas are the ripe yellow bananas, not unripe greens. GTFO

I do not think I have seen these, but these might be the nicest chips I’ve ever seen.

They are wonderful, def my fave of the recent custom paulsons.

I’m still learning what like as well, but I’m voting Cali. Yellow $5’s are just too good.

My favorite set:

but technically the Upper part of the set is NOT Cali
