I joined PCF about 11 months ago. I was searching for information on picking between the poker knights and The Mint chips. I got a set for a neighborhood tourney, then started adding on, then started messing around with semi-customs, then I decided to put all of my chips out on the table at one time.
Here's what I've got in order from least to most favorite. First is a cheap set of plastic vegas chips, ended up with them because I really wanted the case that they came in, so they were thrown in for free.
Next is my 12.2 gram coin inlay. These are slippery, stack exploding chips, but they were my first set that I purchased after school. I have had these chips for over 15 years, its sentimental for me at this point. Plus this is what gets used when the kids want to play "Poker"
Next are my poker knights. This was my tournament set until this month, when I completed my CPS semi-customs
I added on these plaques to make the set play a bit bigger and add bounty's.
Next was my first attempt at semi-custom on the spirit molds. I got them super cheap and really enjoyed the process of putting these together. Currently the chips in use for post tournament cash games. I would love to figure out a way to add a spirit mold nickel to this set, but I don't think there are any other color solids in existence.
Finally, my current tourney set. I could not be happier with these.
Also, I managed to put together a seating chip set, but I still need five more for three full tables of 10
And never forget about the cards. Not pictured are my laminated cards for every type of game out there.
Final count is over 3,000 poker chips. Less than a year ago I had one set, that was horribly set up, which I use for both cash games and tournaments. My budget is tapped for the moment, but I am looking forward to adding to this.
HUGE thank you to @Gear @Lars @abby99 @BGinGA @p5woody @desjgn and so many others who have helped with resources, group buys, artwork and many other things over the past year. You guys didn't have to help like you did, but you did, and I appreciate it.
Because of PCF, I was informed that I had the best basement poker room on my street. That's a high honor!
Keep chippin'
