Sitting Out
Having recently purchased 6 sample sets and introducing myself, I am posting my 1st chip review with both subjective observations and some objective measurements. Also I will note that I'm most interested in Tournament play.
Milano, The cheapest per chip cost, at this time, and can be purchased at $.30 per chip with a Bird cage and Racks on Amazon.
As with all my Clay's, I wiped them down with a damp microfiber cloth to get rid of the dust so the colors would show up better. i will probably never oil a clay chip unless I want to put them in a display case.
Subjective, generally speaking these are the most washed out looking chips However I feel a decent looking set could be put together with the 5,25,100 and $500 chips. Normally I find yellow chips to be one of the more attractive but the $1000 Milano is just to pale/washed out. I do find the $10 chip attractive so a 1,5,10,25 ? cash game set wouldn't be terrible looking. I don't feel these chips are worthy of relabeling for any kind of customization.
Chip values start at $.25 and go to 10K so most cash or tournament games could be played with these.
Objective, 10 chips measured 32.7mm, the shortest of the 6 samples I got. They averaged 39.72mm in diameter. On the Tilt/slid test, I did on a padded felt surface, They were middle of the pack and <= to Majestic's but way better than Royals but the Milano's were not nearly as good as the Tiki King;s or The Bank chips.
No label progression and no real spot progression except the colors of the spots.
Review #2 in a day or two.
