Costum poker set - Feedback 2 (dirty stack) (1 Viewer)

[JackSparrow]

Hey Again Chippers

Thanks a lot for feedback on my costum poker set design. Based on the feedback I have changed some of the colors, to better differentiate each denomination from each other. And to avoid Dirty stack. The big questions now is: Are they different enough, or will I still get a dirty stack? And in that case which of the denominations/colors do still need work? I know that several of you guys mentioned that I should use different edge spots for each denomination. However I do prefer the same edge spots. Is this a big no-go for cash-games, or you think I get away with it because of the different colors?

In terms of design I am quite happy about the colors and how they turned out. It's not for everyone, but personally I love it.

This is a big set, and obviously all denominations are not going too be used on the same time (Most likely 5 of the chips closest to each other in play at a single time. Is going to be used to all casino games/poker, mostly blackjack, for all kinds of stakes so that's why I have so many. Mostly cash games.

Would love to hear your toughts

Seems like an awful lot of different chips. I can’t see why you would need that many denoms.

As for your actual question, the top row in picture one I think will have bad issues with dirty stacks. Lots of repeat colors on either base or spots.

It looks to me that if you stick to the common denominations used generally you won’t have many problems.
Cash the $1, $5, $25, $100 would be fine.
Tournament the $25, $100, $500, $1000, $5000 would all play together ok.

It’s the odd denominations that introduce the worst of the dirty stack issues. The greens, browns, and yellows are all to close in hue and with the white edge spots it’s going to create problems.

It’s one of the problems with 15 denominations and only three primary colors to work with.
You can only create so many distinct shades/mixtures and with the white edge spots handicap it just isn’t good.
