I'll write a little bit about each set. I think this is the best "collection" of chip sets that I have assembled. I really wish I hosted more than once a month.
I'll start with the Sunsets. This is hands down my favorite set. Its the only one that truly has any meaning to me. It is my only untouchable set. There are plenty of threads on it. Search for "sunsets" if your interested. The gist of it is, it was kind of created to commemorate the amazing marriage marriage that I'm in. J5 did the design. He absolutely nailed it.
My next favorite set is the TRK Poseidon's. The feel and sound of them is amazing. It took a couple of weeks of begging and pleading with @colter ripton , but he finally parted with them with the caveat that when I sell them, he gets first dibs.
I fell in love with the B mold set when I played with @ChaosRock Bubb's set. I already knew that I wanted a quarter pie set after seeing @Psypher1000 armory set. About two years ago I had a really good month at the tables and decided, "fuck it". I'm ordering a B mold quarter pie set. David said the mold was running in 6 weeks so I needed to hurry up. I reached out to @p5woody with what I wanted and well...........You see it. He nailed exactly what I envisioned. Scott and Paulo were both very helpful in helping me coordinate the colors. Thank you guys.
The Mardi Gras took awhile to acquire. I really wanted a cash set. I didn't want to order from holdempokerchips because I had been told about 80-90% of the ones were going to have fucked up edge spots. HPC refused to hand pick through them for me. So, every once in awhile I would post a want add and see what would come up. This had been going on for about 3 or 4 years. In AUG I was at the Colorado meet up (thanks @slisk250 ). Friday morning I'm at breakfast with the guys (one of my favorite parts of these meet ups) and I get a PM from @joker80 asking if I'm still interested in a playable set. I say of course. Then he offers me them at an amazing deal. I figured I was already down 700 in poker. I might as well buy a new set of chips. Thank you bud!!!
We all know what happened with the AS cash set. I had been following @inca911 auction. I thought it would be cool to have a two table 1/1 set. My only other two table set is the Sunsets.
I thought about it for a few days. Since I hate auctions. I said "fuck it" yet one more time, and accepted the BIN price.
Thanks for reading.

@Jeff Your driving the furthest out. You pick between the Sunsets and the AS chips for my Birthday game on the 9th.

Realistically, when ( I know longer say if) I sell my next set it will probably be the Mardi Gras. I was proud of myself that I didn't have to sell any "sets" to acquire the AS chips. I've been running pretty good at cards so my bankroll was as flush as it has ever been. Plus I had a few expensive racks that were just sitting there that I moved, plus liquidating 4 racks of the AS chips before I even got them.

Oh, and before the PM's start rolling in. The Mardi Gras aren't for sale. When/If I sell them. @Perthmike gets first dibs, and @Rhodeman77 gets second dibs.

I think this is your strongest lineup yet... and you’re one of the only ones who could create this thread each month and have a totally new lineup to show... hehe...

I've bought and sold a lot of sets. I think my only minor regret is selling the PNY's. I loved those buttery soft clay discs
I wouldn’t be concerned with the lack of pnys when you have that hoarde of top quality sets.
My wife saw a pic of your table and said wow what a cool poker table. She never says anything about my poker tables.
My wife did the same haha. Damn our wives preferring other men’s stuff.

Tell Kat I said thanks. My favorite part of the table is my grandsons initials on the bourbon barrels.
Thanks for a great design @p5woody

Kudos Bill! You've hung onto some good ones.

I guess I did know that. I don't normally relate "fat Tuesday" to Mardi Gras.

Too many sets with blue and yellow, you should sell the Mardi Gras set so you can get a PNY set again
Great collection Bill!

I really like all of your sets. Especially the Mardi Gras set. It's such a great label, and easily readable, with so much going on.
Great customs too! One day I will do something neat like that as well!
